footballfan, yes i read the front page.  nice article on a good defense that has stepped it up in the playoffs and sounds like they saved uww last week as the offense was having trouble.  still doesnt change my feeling that wesley will be able to score points.  now if they turn it over like ncc then they will also struggle scoring.  since i saw the wesley game the 19 was on the low end of what they could have gotten, so being in the 20's last week was not stretching it.  bottom line is this,  i believe wesley will score points tomorrow, some of you dont.  i dont think uww will score a lot of points tomorrow, some of you do.  we shall see and if i am wrong i will say so.  those that know me realize that i am not afraid to tell you what i think even if you might not like it.  i just find it interesting that no one from uww has gone out on a limb with a prediction, guess they are not as confident in what they believe to put it out there for scrutiny.  hope all uww fans have a safe journey and if you make it to the game, find me, i will be wearing a #13 jersey and be in the tailgate area around 1030.  hoping that the game lives up to the hype that we are giving it.

OK, Wesleydad.  Fair enough.  You are an enthusiastic Welsey fan whose loyalty is very clear and strong, as it should be.  The Wolverines have had an outstanding season and beating them tomorrow will be a very tough task for the Warhawks.   I do think that you are reading too much into predictions not being posted, although, I think I remember reading a few on our board.  It is hardly because, somehow, UWW fans lack confidence in their undefeated defending National Champs.   I don't do that kind of thing just because I am highly superstitious.  I still wear my son's jersey on game day even when watching the games in my family room and the same football earring I have been wearing since he was 7.   I believe VERY strongly in karma and try always to protect mine so let me just say that I hope the game is exciting, injury free and I have a reason to go to Whitewater next weekend to watch the Stagg Bowl at my favorite bar.  Enjoy the game, tailgate and the chance to host a semi-final game.                                      GO WARHAWKS!

Did you get a chance to to read the D3football article about the Warhawk defense that is on the front page yet?  It gives some insight as to why judging a game strictly on the final score alone can be deceiving.  

The same guys that picked St Thomas?

Never saw your predicted scores, there, smug guy. Clearly the team that lost 12-7 had NO SHOT of winning.

I've had Bethel and Mount playing in the semi's in the D3photography brackets, just screwed up on Mary Hardin Baylor and Wesley. Jeez Pat, St Thomas? Really?

This just in.......

....."The D-III football semi-final game was canceled between UWW and Wesley due to excessive noise and panic.  Between the air raid sirens, and cannons going off, homeland security issued a code RED, and cancelled all public gatherings.  Due to the fact that either team would have lost to the Purple Raiders next week in Salem, the NCAA in its infinite wisdom (and cost-saving measures they are famous for) has annointed the University of Mount Union national champions of 2010."  (Film of the mayhem at 11.....evidently there is footage of WesleyDad throwing great MICROBREW bottles at the UWW cannon crew, and BleedPurple dropping 50 pound cheese wheels on the siren). 



Yes.......I have had the day off.......anyone ever try caramel vodka and apple cider?  Oh yah.....it's THAT good.

LMAO.   Well, they did their best when they set up the brackets, didn't they?   

I am going to have to try the carmel vodka and apple cider.  Sounds awfully sweet, though.  How many of those can you possibly drink?    

[PA_wesleyfan]

 Wesleydad is correct!!! Yes i said it. The game was not nearly as close as the score last week. I honestly thought that Wesley was never in danger of losing the game after the first quarter. The D line controlled the line of scrimmage  and Bailey had no where to go all day. Daniels got his yards and broke one. By the 4th quarter UMHB players were done. That fast paced offence ran out of gas.

If you want to join the score prediction each week you can criticize our picks.

bobo, make sure you read the entire post, my basis for wesley getting 24 is the fact that trine and franklin put up 31 and 28, which i stated.  i dont use tea leaves and unless you can refute my points then i will stick with my prediction.  havent seen anyone else put a prediction out there so just keep taking shots, but at least make your own prediction.  dont really care about what some octopus comes up with.

I read your entire post but did you not say this in your first 2 sentences:

going on the record early.  based on last weeks games with umhb and ncc, i am going with 24 - 14 wesley.  

It looks really clear to me what you based your prediction on. That was my point. Trine and Franklin were an obvious after thought on your part!!

Franklin??? There you go again. The mighty mighty Franklin. Y'all played a tough team in NCC and that's it. Trine won the Michigan creampuff conference, so what? Let's worry about the games tomorrow

Trine would beat ONU. Franklin would get third in the OAC.  NCC would get first or second in the OAC.  Just who has Mount beaten? Nobody.  UW-W not only beats Wesley tomorrow, Seventies, they make the Stagg Bowl look painfully (to you) like last year's.

Let's all follow Warhawkdad's advice and take the road to the left. Which I think is the one that leads to Salem believe it or not. 

[wesleydad]

bobo, no afterthought.  if you are good at this it takes more than one sentence to make a point.

bleedpurple, why should i have to go to the uww website for a prediction, post it on d3 for all to read.

skunks, not only was i laughing at your post, but my wife who hardly ever laughs at such things, could not stop laughing.  she is intersted in the caramel vodka and apple cider and how many you can have.

pawesley, thanks for finally getting my back, the game last week was not close, at least some of us realized it.
