MAC to team up with the Centennial for post-season bowl games - pulling out of the ECAC debacle: http://www.d3football.com/notables/2015/11/centennial-mac-pull-out-of-ecac-bowls

What the ECAC did is a good example of what in Germany is called "improving things by making them worse."

Verschlimmbesserung

Pat, and here I thought you majored in Spanish. 

I'm trying to learn German to support my choral singing habit. But I used Google for this.

Pep had a glockenspiel in the pep band one year but the band has yet to try singing the fight song in German. When we get the translation, Pat, Pep will let you know.

I would guess that any two conferences establishing a post season bowl game would agree not to compete inter-conference during the regular season.  How well might repeat games go over if it happened?

Heck, it could be worse. This new arrangement will at least avoid the situation we had back in 1999, when FDU played Wilkes in the ECAC bowl...again. Uggh.

[bman]

Why not add a 3rd game in which the 2 last place teams play each other...
Then potentially one conference could say "We are truly better Top to Bottom"...

[Warren Thompson]

So, Pat, you're learning German for musical purposes? Then the D3 world fully expects to read glowing reviews in the STRIB's
arts section of your solo in the Minneapolis Symphony's coming production of Wagner's "Ring Cycle."

I think you are about right on these JM.

I'm kind of hoping you are slightly wrong with the Albright game (I'll be there as it is last home reg season game for Stevenson to watch my kiddo in the band) I'm hoping my guys at Lyco (lyco alum here for me) will play the spoiler but not quite counting on it. I also wouldn't mind the loss based on this week's news about the new bowl series cause it would be likely Stevenson would host one of those 2 games.

Lagers, Bleenies, kielbasa and bean soup on the Gameday menu for the Skooks today...The aroma in the air should be good before, during but I don't know about after consumption!

Simba out...

DelVal is running up and down the field but the lovely punt returner just gagged on a punt and Lyco recovered a fumble at the 3 and scored. 7-7.

Gordon........it sounds like the loud, obnoxious, potty mouthed "adult" fans aren't just an Albright issue. I can clearly hear some of the "animals" at Lyco on the broadcast. They must be a few feet away from you 

[jmcozenlaw]

Gordon - I haven't seen or heard about Michael Fowler as much as bobbling a punt........let alone fumbling one. Why in God's name is Anusky back there instead of a sure handed kid like Fowler??

It happens anywhere the mic can pick up fans...
I flip across video feeds to all of the top 10 East teams during Saturday's games (and even some non top 10).   Montclair's coaches are so bad, I almost want to send someone a note so they can hear how they sound (=classless)

I sat right below the Montclair coaches the first game of the year and they were complete trash. I was looking up and them and calling them, "Joisey Shore"
