Great steaks, sweet tea, homemade yeast rolls, and pecan pie to devour.  True texas style pit BBQ.  Can't beat it!  Is it lunch time yet?  I can smell the smoke from Corpus Chriti (five hours away!)   :D

Good luck to the Warhawks......Pound the Rock as hard as you are able because this appears to be the best opponent you have played all year. It has been an unbelievable season for such a young team. Of the 4 years this team to me is the most remarkable....number 1 running back goes down and you don't miss a step and lack of seniors but you keep on going. Truly whatever happens this is a special team and what  could make it real special is to put one over on the Crusaders.....Go Warhawks! Pound the Rock!....we will be listening/watching in ChiTown.....

Go CRU!!!  Donkeystomp the Warhawks!

Kinda reminds me of the Tom Petty song from the album, "Full Moon Fever",

"I'm going to stand my ground, and
I won't back down."

Should be some kind of battle.  A couple of heavyweights about to collide in the biggest game of the year.  Brings out the kid in me. What a game it should be tomorrow in Belton.   :o

Humble but hungry...Go Cru!

Guess I will wade in with my $.02 on the game.  We all agree that this will be a very hard, tough, physical game for both teams and I am with BW, very nervous about the outcome for several reasons such as, (speaking of injuries,) the Hawks are a little banged up.  Now, almost all teams are who are playing at this time of year but apparently, the Cru is in top shelf shape.   :)  Secondly, sure wish this game was being played at the PERK!  I witnessed first hand the defensive stalemate in 06 and the atmosphere in Belton.  I am very relieved that being a NCAA play-off game the, "drums," will not be present as they produced one of the loudest environments that I have watched a D3 game be played in.  Regarding the SOU loss, doesn't mean a thing to me.  We lost a game we never should have either and while we can't hang our hat on the ole' injury excuse, I would say that we may have forgotten that just putting on a uniform and taking the field at the PERK did not secure an auto win.  It resulted in a gut-check for the young WARHAWKS that paid dividends as the season went on.  STP was good but I felt we played flat and without that stumble, the Cru would very possibly be eating breakfast in Wisconsin this morning.  Now to the matchup.  I get that this is not the same Cru that we have played that last 3 games.  Looks like they have more weapons and our offense, while getting it done every week has hardly been on auto-pilot.  I am expecting a defensive struggle of massive proportions tomorrow but there is nothing that gives me more comfort than to know that we will need our DEFENSE to come up big.  I stated earlier this week on the Pick em's board that if the WARHAWKS DEFENSE can play tough, I expect they will, than our offense can do enough to get the win.  Our DEFENSE has held the Cru to 3 TD's and 1 FG in three meetings and this years WARHAWK DEFENSE, is as solid as any of those past teams in most respects. Our front 7, as a unit, is as good as the 07 team and with Borland being very familiar with the CRU, he will have the boys prepared.  And, yes, many players agreed that the Cru's defense was the toughest they played last year and I don't expect anything less this year.  In other words, I highly doubt that they are any better than the 06, 07 version and we won against them.  To the UMHB poster who said, "you haven't played a team as good as this one yet this year," I would just say, DITTO.  In reading the boards this week, I have loved the level of respect both program's posters have shown for each other.  Wish I was in Belton enjoying that 60-70 degree weather and the great Texas hospitality. Fans were great and had some of the best BBQ I ever ate at a place just south of Belton.  Can't remember the name but might know it if I read it.   Glad to see the boys flew charter, the travel delays in 06 made it a brutal road trip.  I am so proud of the young WARHAWKS for making it this far!  With the graduation of the 23 seniors, 17 of them starters, it was a huge hill to climb but they have exceeded many expectations and tomorrow is just one more day to play.  Good luck to both teams, hoping for no injuries and safe travels to all.

                    GO WARHAWKS    BEAT THE CRU    GO WARHAWKS 

Couldn't agree more FF413...these past few playoff games are turning out to be a very valuable experience for this young team. what better way to gain game-time experience than facing the best the country has to offer (DIII of course) in a win-or-go-home atmosphere. to think how well this team has played this year, even though you can count our starting seniors on one hand (that's both offense and defense combined)!!!

The experience they are getting now will definetly pay dividends over the next couple of years. Next year 'Hawks will be dominate I believe. I'm trying not to get ahead of myself here, there is still this season to finish out and I don't want to count the 'Hawks out yet for tomorrow's game....but whatever happens (win or lose) UWW has a ton of pential to build on. success breads success!

I do not know if we have gorillas in Central Texas, but their are a few mules, goats, horses, cattle, deer, and the like that might work in regards to points. ;)  Should be a great game.

Maybe you are talking about visiting your favorite zoo to do that next Saturday, cause we aren't the Gorillas, we are the

CRUSADERS
Watch out for the wreckingCRU defense!!

I am referencing the "monkey stomp" as coined by our MIAC friends. They have a list of all of these different scenarios that can happen in a football game relating a point total to a primate. A mule stomping? We're going to say that to have a mule stomping you have to win by 1.5 points because it should never be used. Goat stomping? win by forfeit due to the other team's narcalepsy. Horse stomping should be a win by 2 as in the Budweiser clydesdale commercial. Deer stomping is a shut out of two teams from the same conference during non-conference play (earn a buck rule). Finally, we have cattle stomping which is actually a loss by six because a defensive back can't push a wide receiver out of bounds near the end of the game ;D

As for Gorilla stomping, I'm going to call it a win while scoring twice on offense, defense, and special teams.

Warhawk96,

I understand now.  Thanks for the clarification.  A gorilla stomping it is.  I think we both agree that if either team can get the upper hand early at least one of us will be able to breathe easier.  The closer the contest then we both have to eat the Tums. :D  Unfortunately, I believe it will be a 4 quater affair.

Travel safe and well my friends.  I am looking forward to a great game tomorrow.

That is really funny!  I should check that out.  As for the double scores in all phazes, I don't see that happening in the slightest.  We'll see in about 20 hours!

Nah, me neither. Whoever scores anything will win this one. I do think that this game will last for about an hour and forty five minutes including halftime thanks to all of the running that goes on in these types of games.

I must say that I agree.  It should be a defensive struggle.  Both teams take great pride in stopping the others offense.
