I'll concede that the Bishops used Freshman QBs, but neither one was horrible and made capable plays at other points in the game.  As Plaidman said, the D seemed to be in mid-season form.

BD,
  Keep tour eye on #31 for CMU. He is a slot back/ wing back. Had 5 touches against OWU for a 7+ average. Tough kid with above average speed.
He is a junior. This is the first year he went out for the team. He will definately help the running game.

[BDTartan]

Yes, I noticed him last week at OWU.  If I remember correctly my brother told me there was an upperclassmen who had run track or cross country previously and joined the football team.  It could be him.  Carney is his name I believe.  To be honest, alot of people touched the ball for CMU last week.  At the end of the game there was a fr. RB named Garcia, number 26, and he looked like he had some game.  Nearly scored on a long run at the end of regulation.  Ruzga saw some time at FB along with Phillips.  There is definitely potential in the future.  I believe the O-line is almost all seniors though.  That could be a question mark in the coming years.

I'm looking forward to the GCC game tomorrow.  Could be some wet weather, but that makes it interesting sometimes.  If CMU plays anywhere close to the way they did last weekend I think they win at GCC by two TDs.  I can't wait to see that CMU D again.

GO TARTANS!

Magnificent post, Martin. I'll be rooting for the monsters until next week when they travel to Crawfordsville. I have a law degree from U of Chi, but it ain't the same as Alma Mater. GO Maroons!
      Next week it's Scientae et Virtuti. Wabash always fights

CWRU 24-Rochester 0 at the half.  Whalen dressed but not playing, Calderone not dressed, haven't seen Cowdrick.

[DagarmanSpartan]

Is our depth that good, or is Rochester just really weak?

38-6 now, and Case is playing without 3 or 4 of its best players, including its best offensive and defensive player, respectively.

[ADL70]

The Spartans have depth...several #2s rotated in with the starters throughout the game as well.

Rochester plays in a tough conference.  They went to an ECAC post-season game last year too.

38-6 was final.

Excellent game by the Spartans in horrible weather.  With Whelan, Cowdrick, Calderone and others out the depth of this years team is evident.

Debs has changed the attitude of this program and its being reflected on the field.  2 yrs ago a win like today with so many key players out would have been difficult.

Oberlin will be a bigger test.  They lost some key players to graduation but still return RV Carroll at RB and a tough defense.  Whelan may be back but Cowdrick (hamstring) and Calderone (knee) are looking to return after the bye week.

This reply is for CWRU fans and Parents .
I have a link to our photographers page. I sent out emails to Parents but as usual many were bad addresses and did not send.
In case you know of any Parents not getting emails , please let me know.
Thanks

Any definitive word on which, if any, of the "Big Three" (Whalen, Calderone, Cowdrick) will be playing against Oberlin?

I want to see our two decade plus win streak against Oberlin continue, but without those three, I can't help but worry a little.

I suspect that Oberlin will be fired up, and could be primed for an upset.

[ADL70]

Whalen probable (practiced on Tues per CWRU site) the other two don't expect until Denison

[ADL70]

Big win for the Bears today.  CWRU doesn't miss a beat even with all the injuries.

How good could the Spartans be?  They dominated Rochester and Oberlin while Oberlin gave W & J a game and Rochester just lost to St. John Fisher, but only by 7.

Average halftime score: 37-2.333

Roll, you Redcats, roll!

Rough Cats?   Red Riders?
