Congrats to Wesley, y'all played the better game and I wish you good luck next week and beyond.

See you next year

I didn't get to watch the whole game because of work  but what I saw was a very good  D by Wesley doing what it had to do to win.  Congrats to the Wolverines and on to the Stagg.

Great job by Wesley. Excellent D, offense, AND special teams. The best part about this win is that next week, there will be a game in Dover! Go Wesley and onto Whitewater!

Side Note: Justin Sottilare tied Chris Warrick for most TD passes in a season with 37. Pretty impressive.

great win by wesley.  totally dominated the game on the d side of the ball.  the offense moved it enough to score what was needed.  2 fumbles and a blocked punt and still hold umhb to 9 points.  nothing else has to be said.  if there is a better defense out there, i havnt seen it yet.  semis again, lived up to the #1 seed.  uwww coming to wesley next week will be a little different.  they may be in for culture shock.  no large stadium with a fancy locker room and smoke for an entrance.  just a short walk from the modest clubhouse to the field.  no bells and whistles.  really looking forward to this game.  can wesley make the last step to the stagg?

Wesley Dad:

Sorry I missed you today.  Putting together the video broadcast took some time.  I'll likely be back next Saturday in some capacity so hopefully we can catch up then.

[wesleydad]

gordon, sorry we missed each other.  hopefully i will see you next week.  heard that you did a nice job on the video, i am not surprised as i have heard your delval broadcasts while i have watched the games.  this should be a real good game.  i know ncc has a good defense but i dont think it is as good as wesley's is.  if that is true and uwww has to go with the 2nd string qb, wesley has a real good chance of winning.  wesley has a better offense than ncc so i think they can score.  if wesley shuts down coppage, they can win the game.  is it next saturday yet?

  Some GREAT D by Wesley,,,I don' think the UMBH coaches thought they could run the ball coming in,,a lot of early game passes,,and a lot of 45 second 3 and outs with the hurry up O

[Teamski]

Looking at UWW's offensive performance today, I believe that if Wesley's defense performs as they did today, and the Wolverines play clean on both sides of the ball, Wesley has an outstanding shot at a victory next week.  North Central threw the game away with turnovers deep on their end of the field and outgained UWW on offense.  I can't see how UWW rolls into Dover with any substantial advantage.  Let the fight begin.

teamski and wesleydad...there's no doubt in my mind you guys should roll WW...they aren't much and are just squeaking by against these teams no where as superior as the #1 overall seed wesley...you guys have a ton of experience in these big games and have had succe....well you have experience which is probably more then enough to beat this lackluster WW offense and don't forget that they have that terrible 2nd string QB in there who has gotten lucky these last 3 games...

overall I really don't get why Wesley is being forced to play this game...its not like those games in WW where we had an unfair advantage of a non-stop cannon going off and those snow machines...you guys are clearly the favorites in this game and I'd be shocked if this was a game going into halftime...

I'd say best of luck but lets be honest...WW is going to need all the luck they can get to keep this close

Deep rooted mid-western sarcasm aside... Is anyone bringing some Spotted Cow to Dover??? I got crazy on that brew when I was in WI last time. I'll trade some Dogfish! Any takers??

wesleydad,

Congrats on the Wesley win! You have tough one with UWW, but it can happen!

[wesleydad]

tunit14, i was thinking the complete opposite.  i dont know why the game has to be played either.  you guys are clearly the best team in the country.  wesley has been lucky to get this far.  i am not even sure if i am going to make the trip this weekend, especially if the game will be over by halftime.

[wesleydad]

teamski, yea, looking at the stats from yesterdays uwww game there seems to be some possible areas that wesley can attempt to attack.  uwww seems to give up yards against the pass.  they had 4 sacks and 2 int so they must be getting pressure, so big game needed by o line.  their qb seemed to struggle stat wise, only 113 yards with 50 coming on 1 play.  if wesley can shut down the run, then it seems they may be able to force uwww into throwing which isnt there strong point.  if the starter returns, that may change things.  will wesley be able to run the ball enough to keep uwww honest on d.  that has been the issue in the previous games, also turnovers will hurt.  have to play a clean game, which it seems that if ncc had, the outcome may have been different.  early weather check has chance of showers, mid 40's.  hope that changes to no showers.  dont think it matters to the players, just dont feel like getting wet.
