Well my wife has no interest but she'll keep the kids if I'm going to make the drive. So I won't need to bring the motorhome for just me. I'll keep an eye on the weather tomorrow, but likely I'll be there. It'll be nice to have been to W&L at Sewanee, Trinity at BSC, and Wesley at Huntingdon this year. Not keeping up with WesleyDad's schedule, but I'll feel pretty respectable...

jk, anyone who has no dog in the fight and is still willing to make a drive more than just around the corner always gets respect from wesleydad.  i am actually taking the weekend off, only second one this year.  local microbrew is having an event and if there is one thing that wesleydad likes as much as d3 football it is good beer and they make some of the best.  enjoy the game and i will be looking forward to your view of wesley.  i think they can be real good and go pretty far especially if they clean up the offensive miscues that keep games closer than they should be.

Wow, that must be some really good beer!  Please tell me you'll at least sneak in a listen to WDEL or you may go into withdraw

Safe travels to the Wesley fans heading to Huntingdon

How are the Builders doing this year?  Did they just join the USCAA?  Safe travels!

I hope the live video will be up on Huntingdon's stream.  I know with the Frankenstein storm barrelling down directly towards Dover, we will be hunkered down by then.

This from www.alabamawx.com ...

WEEKEND WIND AND CHILL: Strong north winds will develop across Alabama over the weekend due to the tight pressure gradient from Sandy to the east, and the Arctic high to the northwest. I expect winds both Saturday and Sunday to average 15 to 25 mph, with gusts over 30 mph at times. And, we will struggle to get out of the 50s both Saturday Sunday as the very cold air is pulled southward on the west side of Sandy's circulation. Bottom line is that the weekend will be dry, but cold and blustery.

Well, that's just GREAT! 

Brr - we're heading down for the game so I guess I better bring a coat!  But on the bright side at least it won't be raining to boot.  My other half is trying to convince me we should go to the Alabama game in Tuscaloosa after this one, but maybe this will help change his mind.

Hopefully I can keep the grill lit in that wind. If you get to campus early look me up in the tailgating area. We're usually next to the big tree nearest where the visiting team buses park. Look for a green canopy(unless the wind takes care of that) and a dark blue Ford Ranger truck.

Be nice to our guys down there.  I have a feeling they will be staying with you in Montgomery a day or two more than expected.

I was thinking that. If you are planning to fly home, you might be planning to delay a day or two. I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to drive from Birmingham to Montgomery for this one. I feel like I'd like to, but like everyone else in the world, there is so much else I'm supposed to be doing!

DE wesley, yes it is very good brew.  i plan on taking a laptop to the pub and watching the game, hopefully the wifi and live stream work, while having fun. so there will be no withdraw here.

thoughts on todays game.  looking at 4 games, huntingdon vs. bsc, wesley vs. bsc, huntingdon vs hampden sydney, and hampden sydney vs bridgewater, which i saw in person i believe wesley will win this game.  wesley's defense will likely shut down the hawks if hampden sydney held them to 24.  if the weather plays into the game and the hawks have to run then they are in trouble, hampden held them to less than 100 yds.  having seen hampden their offense is not as good as wesley's so i believe wesley will be able to score.  again if the weather limits the passing game then the game will be closer than i think it should be.  wesley again has to limit the mistakes, if they do i think they win by 2 td's.  safe travels to all going to the game and safe return for the team, looks like they may be able to get back before the mess really his on monday/tuesday.  dg, hawks, and jk, if you make the game, i will be looking forward to your thoughts after the game.

I'm leaving here in about 20 minutes. Helped my wife out of the house and she told me to get out of her hair for the rest of the day. So hopefully I'll meet up with DG and some Wesley folks about a 1/2 hour before game time. Looking forward to it.

Wow, Wesley's offense is horrible in the first.  The traveling is taking it's toll for sure.  This is the worst quarter of the year.

[wesleydad]

play calling inside the 10 was horrible.  they look slow, but should not give up many so they should still win.

[Teamski]

Wesley is hurting!  That two bye-week break for the Hawks is working out well for them.  They are all over the ball while Wesley is flat.   This one is going to take something special from the Wolverines.....

[Teamski]

14 nil.  I knew we were going to be in trouble when Wesley didn't score inside the 10......   The offense has to kick it in.
