pawesley, the mules have a whole different issue with punting. i saw the game against ursinus and that is how they punt it all the time. i believe this is the 3rd punter this year, the other 2 were injured so they have gone to that style to get punts off. speaking of punts, i think wesley may want to scrap that spread punt formation. that is the 3rd punt i have seen blocked in different games that i have gone to with teams using that formation. the other team is just overloading a side and outmanning the blockers.

i agree about the d and they will be hearing about how good montclaires d is supposed to be so i think they will have a little incentive to prove who is better.

Yes- the Mules rugby punt (from what I saw). It's ugly but effective in keeping our best dudes from getting the ball in space. If you don't have a kid that can boom them high and deep then this is a great alternative to minimize the chance for a big return.

I'm fired up for the Montclair game- all us old 97-2000 Wolverines are thirsty for some payback. How will we win?

TOGETHER!

18.5 is a lot. It's going to be a windy ,cold day in Dover

Windy...at Wesley?

Really.....never had that happen there with us (removing tongue from deep in cheek - hehe)

nnasid, guess that means that it will be windier then usual in dover.

raider68, i think the 18.5 is about right. rams1102 said it well. wesley is better by 3 scores if both teams play a clean game. homefield certainly gives wesley an advantage with only 2 losses since the turf was put in, one to monclaire. wesley is likely to shut down the run which leaves montclaire passing which is not their strong suit. wesley will figure out a way to move the ball and if last week is any indicator, sottilaire can throw it hard enough even against the wind or with the cross wind. if monclaire struggles scoring and there is no indication they wont since everyone else has, then i can see wesley winning 24 or more - 7. mistakes make this a closer game or a blowout.

rams1102, enjoy your stay in dover, not sure of your plans, but you can certainly kill some time at dover downs casino. really nice irish restuarant on the way to the campus also.

Should roll into Dover around 6:30PM. I have to complete my honey do's. Not one to gamble. What is a good place to eat? I would like to meet you and Pa before the game. I guess everyone is playing this close to the vest, cause there is very little chatter on the NJAC Board and you and Pa do most of the talking here with a little from water boy. After all of this the most important : "A Happy And Healthy Thanksgiving To All."

rams1102, i will talk to my son and get the name of the irish restaurant that i mentioned. plenty of chain restaurants to eat at also on the main strip. i am returning from north carolina via norfolk friday night so i plan on trying to be there by 11 am, but likely earlier since i tend to beat the supposed arrival time on the gps. usually only pa, teamski, and myself. waterboy chimes in once in a while. i am surprised that the njac board is so quiet too, figured with the wins by mont and cort that they would be chirping a little. beenhit2hard and conrad also add some to the conversation here. since the chill will be in the air i will put the boys 13 jersey on so i will be easy to find.

There are a lot more places to eat since your last visit to Dover. The Colonade in the casino at the Downs has a few places also. I don't stay down any morte and eat so Wesleydad and Ski and Conrad can give you a better idea. I sit next(to the left) to the press box second row from the top usually on the aisle. I am hoping to make it down buit I had a little set back with my hip and back today and I am not walking or sitting very well!!

Yeah, get better! I hope you can make the game.

I believe Wesleydad is referring to Mcglynns Pub & Restaurant, 800 North State Street. It is right on the way to Wesley and is easy to find. I've only ate there once, but it was good. If you like Mexican, La Tolteca is right on route 13 on the way to Wesley as well. In the heart of Dover, you have Smithers which is actually an 1800's house complete with a sports bar. Also, there is Frasiers and The Loockerman Exchange. So, you have a bunch of choices....

thewaterboy · November 24, 2010, 01:06:40 PM

just rolled into dover. very windy and chilly. clear skies adn bright sun will help a little. dress warm and enjoy the game. i think montclaire has trouble scoring and wesley wins 31 - 10.

wesleydad · November 27, 2010, 02:37:18 PM

game winding down, 44 - 7 and it was as the score shows. wesley dominated the game. defense is really good. the coaches did a great job today. the offense was clearly prepared for the weather as they shortened the routes to accomodate for the wind which was really blowing. next week will be the biggest test for the defense as umhb brings the best offense that wesley has seen all year. this will be a real good one. already looking forward to it. great job today.
