Noticed that your karma was at #666 with this post, BoBo.  Coincidence???  I think not...............

That is kind of a bummer number to be stuck on, isn't it? 

I'll help you out.

Geeezzzz, you guys! (did someone say déjà vu?)  Enough of the bear crap!! This is PACKER country and we'd like to keep it that way!! I guess we'll have to show you how it's done again on Sept 25th. 

P.S. although it is a shame about his mom.

Revolutionizing the game of football?

Found this crazy article today. A power house high school team from Arkansas (Pulaski Academy) went up on Cabot High 29-0....before Cabot ever ran a play from scrimmage!!! TD, onside kick, TD, onside kick, etc......

At first I was disgusted, b/c I thought this jerk coach was showing up a much smaller/weaker school and just ran up the score b/c it'll be fun. However, after a closer look, Cabot is ranked 11th in the state!!! So this was no slouch team they were smoking. In fact, Cabot has 6 times the student population than Pulaski does (2100 compared to 350 students), and the game was at Cabot.

If you read the article you'll see this is his coaching style. He doesn't punt, doesn't kick off, doesn't return punts (risk of fumble)....and it all seems to work as they are the #1 ranked team in Arkansas (in their division).

I know it's been discussed on D3boards on the advantages about not punting....looks like this coach is taking it to a whole new level, and reaping the rewards. Very interesting.

I'm a little upset...My Warhawk flag ripped a few days ago. The top eye-hole, that connects to the top of the flag pole, ripped out of the seem. Now, I can't get to the bookstore fast enough to get a new one now. Since I can't make it to tomorrow's game, I'll have to wait till October 1st to hit up the bookstore.

When they won it in 2007 I left it up all winter long....In hindsight, that probably wasn't a smart idea.

Hey, 02 - If you like, I could pick you up a flag tomorrow.

^^ Keep that Pulaski article away from the Oshkosh coaching staff at all costs. Considering some of the weird gimmicks they ran the last time I saw them (last year), who knows what they might do.

Personally, I don't dig the philosophy of the Pulaski coach - but you have to give him bonus points for creativity. I like the 11-man rush on the QB. Seems like that could be beaten rather easily, however.

Anyone remember Army's lonesome end, #87? The rules got changed because of it. That was an interesting tactic. Bill Carpenter was even an all-american in 1959, before he was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross in Vietnam and retired a lieutenant general.

I wonder how many of those Pulaski Academy kids are going to know how to play special teams when they get to college? Plus who wants to go to a game and watch a whole quarters worth of on-side kicks? I could see some of the formations being copied, but as a philosophy, I don't find it that innovative. My friends and I were doing those kind of things playing in the backyard way before that coach was even born. I wonder what his players think when they watch college or professional games? Looks like they're playing a different game. That's my $.02 for what it's worth.

What exactly did Bill do that changed rules?

I appreciate it, but I'll just pick one up when I attend the Platteville game. Thanks though!

Anyways, you coming out for that one on 10/1? We are getting there early and smoking a Prime Rib roast, then cutting it up for sandwiches. Like the NCC game last season, you're more than welcome to join us. As long as you bring those good cookies again.

I keep hearing of the gimmick plays that UWO has ran since switching offensive philosophy in 2009 (or was it 2008?)...I saw them play Mount Union in 2010 and Central College this season and I haven't seen a single gimmick play.

What did they run? and truthfully, how many gimmick plays did they actually run?

Found this on Campbellsville athletic page:

Not sure if it's a pay-per-view or not though.

I'm a little nervous about Campbellsville's 6'4" wide receiver, Stan Warrenhuffman.  Looks like he's a big-time play maker. Hopefully our corners can match up and be physical with him. Like to see Hamilton pop him over the middle....put a little fear in him early  .

Their QB looks to be a bit erratic, he's thrown 4 ints already in two games, but has 6 TDs.

On Oshkosh's third possession against Central they ran the old lateral across the field to a running back who threw the bomb down field to a receiver gimmick.  Whether or not you call it a trick play, it sure tricked the Central defense.

Against UWW last season:

- Garrie Fox 14 yd pass from Cole Myhra  - Halfback throw for a TD.
- C. McClelland pass complete to Paul Coburn for 33 yards to the UWW6 - End around pass?
- Justin Budiac had consecutive of end around runs - misdirection, rather than a gimmick plays maybe

These were all tried in the first half, which kept the game pretty close (24-14 at the half).

But the second half didn't contain anything that fancy. Just a lot of Wara running and passing for UWO.

My strong guess is that if Warrenhuffman wanders over the middle, he will more than feel Hamilton's presence! That's the best way to make a 6'4" wide receiver play 5'11"!
