Sounds like a great game turned on a fake punt early for Hopkins. 

Good thing Wesley gets out of this weather for MUC this week. 

I'm rooting for our South Region champ.. But they have to bring it 150% more than they did today against The Machine that Wesleydad and I have seen in person. 

[skunks_sidekick]

Yes!  This is what I was hoping for earlier this year.  I think it will be a good one next week.  Wesleydad.......bring as many as will make the trip, and we will see you at the Wing Warehouse Friday night.  I will make sure we have tables reserved, because it sounds like we may have a pretty good bunch coming.  Saintsfan......see you there. 

Mount is rolling.........turned the ball over three out of the first four times they had it and still led 28-3 at the half.

Now that I got the feeling back in my hands, I can type!  Yep, definately not a game to boast about, but a win is a win.  Johns Hopkins played pretty tough, but the weather played tougher!  Well, the Wesley defense shined once again, holding JH to 136 total yards. 

That game was about as cold, wet and windy as you can get!  The rain turned to sleet and snow at the end of the game.  The players were really cold!

Onto Mount Union.

well, i think that may have been the worst conditions I have ever watched a football game in.  cold, wet, and windy doesnt make for much fun as a fan.  Johns Hopkins plays some pretty tough defense, good thing that Wesley does too.  Nothing can be taken from this game as far as Wesley's chances next week against Mount, the weather was horrendous.  I will say that if the defense plays this tough again, it will be a game.  congrats to Johns Hopkins for a fine season and you guys certainly travel well, more fans then wesley did.

Us wesley fans take some heat for how we conduct ourselves, but myself, my son, and his friend certainly look good to the dozen or so Hopkins cars that we had to push out of the tailgate field since the rain made it a total mess with mud.

Skunks sidekick, i have a prior commitment on friday evening that will prevent me from arriving friday night, thanks for the invite.  i will be on the road early saturday with plans to arrive in alliance in time to join you for margaritas and eggs.  i will have 2 others with me, so we will see you then.

wesleydad:  Sorry to hear you won't be able to make our Friday gathering.  I'll have to make SaintsFAN drink your allotment.

[SaintsFAN]

You know it, hscoach.  If I'm not calling the game, can you get me a press box pass?  I can do some guest commentary for you and Ric. 

[wesleydad]

Saints, sorry i cant make it friday night, had a good time last year.

wesley fans, if you want to have good conversation about the game, head over to the OAC board, plenty of mount folks there, most are really knowledgable about all things mount so you will get a good feel for the game, plus I can use some help tauting wesley's team and chances this year. 

if anyone is making the trip, myself, jason and a school friend will be hitting the road early saturday morning to arrive in alliance by 930 for margaritas and breakfast with some mount folks.  I hope that there is a good showing of fan support for the team, more than just parents.  it is an easy drive from pa and I am sure that it is pretty easy from dover, just longer.  hope to see you at the game.

Well, not really much to say about this one except a win is a win. Whose all coming to Alliance?

Hey, according to earlier posts, isn't saintsfan supposed to be buying all of the drinks at the WWF(riday) gathering??

[theaprof]

To any of the Wesley fans traveling to Alliance--

For the past several years I have been trading apparel--t-shirts or hats (your choice) with our semi-final and Stagg opponents.  Obviously I have no Wesley gear since this is our first meeting.  If anyone is interested in a MUC (this is the last year, as we are changing our identity to University next year) hat or T-shirt send me a PM and we can figure out how to make the trade--nothing mean intended here, just an honest desire to collect items from lots of D3 schools.  I have hats or shirts from Bridgewater, UWW, Hampton-Sydney, Cortland, Christopher Newport.....

Good luck in the game and safe travels to all!

Mt. Union - 42
Wesley - 10

Will not even be close.

[wesleydad]

Bulldog10, care to elaborate as to why you dont think it will even be close.  or are you one of those posters who just like to chirp without basis for your chirping.  since you came over here and dont post very often i figure you dont do much on the OAC site, because the more knowledgable Mount fans believe that this could and should be a very good game.  enjoy your little foray into our domain and come back anytime you want to spread such great incite into this weeks game.  if you cant do that then your opinion will be considered just plain bull@@@##$.

You aren't going to get anyone in here to react to childish posts. None of us has kids on the teams and the players don't come in here .  We rehash the game and talk about what we feel is how the teams is doing and what strengths and weaknesses they have . And we don't all agree on that some of the time. Wesley will come to Mount Union and play hard.  If they play like they have all year the game should be a good football game.

How dare you. Mount Union is averaging 57.5 point per game in the playoffs. Are you sandbagging??

[dedragon]

Can't make it to the game, but I hear the Green Stinger may have it on the tube next Saturday. Does anyone know of anywhere else?
