Atlantic Central Football Conference/Independents

Bailey's role for UMHB this year seems to be eerily similar to McSweeny's was with Wesley last year. They both have the ability to make things happen with their feet, and make up in areas where the team may lack. With Sottilare this year, as he is more of a passing QB, he does not have that luxury, thus the young o-line that we have seems to be a weak point.

DE Wesley Fan, I believe he has always done that, but Im going off of pictures I have seen of him during the 2010 season. I dont recall noticing it much live though so im not totally sure. 

dedragon, I hope youre right. Hopefully that loss lit a fire underneath them

I saw it two years ago from the box. It is troubling when there is immediate pressure as you can tell he doesn't get a good handle on the ball at that point to throw it away. At this point, it is a unconscious act and not coachable. Would like to see the pocket move more against high level opponents like MHB or MU or UWW. I'm sure the coaches will address the teams deficiencies week to week. I would think Special Teams might be a topic for discussion this week.

In all, I look to a newly determined Wolverine squad run the table starting this weekend.[/quote]

Going to Pineville will not be an easy game. They always get up for UMHB, and knowing they will have a chance to prove something in preparation for what looks like a surprisingly strong ASC in light of McMurry being out and HSU being down, LC will be up for it.

What's the scoop on LC? The Wolverines will be hungry to get back onto the field after last week. Hopefully they have a healthy week of practice (radio mentioned that the flu was going around on the team or something). Not sure what kind of effect that had on their preparation for UMHB. But regardless, its playoff time for dubnation. If Wesley get through this part of their schedule unscathed, then IMO, they will have fixed themselves to be a very dangerous football team.

it may be just me, but I dont get the calling of Wesley the dubnation.  I have seen it on shirts and such.  There is UDubDub and we know who they are.  Why would Wesley need to start being called dub anything?  It seems silly to me.

[thewaterboy]

Lol I know its something the players throw around. I wondered the same thing at first, but then i just went along with it

It may be that some teams are trying to mimic some sportscasters from ESPN 'Sportsnation'. The more use of nation after some abbreviation or letter that represents their respective school, it kind of catches on.

I'm with you on this one.  Only thing I want to be called soon is "national champion"   First step to that is a strong showing this Saturday and coming out with a win.  We're heading down for the game (always wanted to see New Orleans and this is a great excuse) -  I want to be celebrating with a Hurricane afterwards, not crying in it.....

LC is always tough at home. They are well coached and will be playing very inspired ball knowing they have a chance to keep pace with UMHB. Spread O with a quality QB. Fast on D like UMHB and strong on the run. Should be a great game.

Let's hope that the flu that limited practices last week is gone and Wesley gets some of the injured back..Those games the last few years between Wesley and UMHB took there toll. .This week will be a big one in the south some great match ups

Awesome news!  I can only imagine what the last year has been like for the Knapp family. 

I really appreciate WDEL's coverage of Wesley, especially the on-line interviews.  Keep up the good work!
