Oh yah and don't kick to beavers if you want to win.

Interesting ,when looking at the kickoff stats for Cru kicker Joel Munoz. He has 20 touchbacks on 107 kickoffs. Pretty unusual in D-III since they moved it back to the 30. Munoz has had lots of practice, since the Cru has scored 91 touchdowns this season (hopefully, they won't do that today.) Maybe they will try to kick it over Beavers.

If he's not kicking into the wind, he can kick it to the goal line.  If with the wind, I've seen him put it out the back.

Looks a little breezy this morning out my window (about 1.5 miles form Miller Stadium), skies are clear, temperature is in the low 40's. Great day for a game!
Probably best for the Cru to play it safe when kicking to Beavers, if you saw the game in '05 you know why.

good luck wesley!!!

[Teamski]

Well, that's all they wrote....

27-10 UMHB over Wesley.  Once again, turnovers absolutely killed Wesley.  5 total.  You just can't win like that.  For the most part, Wesley did a pretty good job on defense, but the offence failed them and the defense spent too much time on the field.  Schatz couldn't get it in gear in the second half, and Wesley didn't employ sweep plays which  I really thought would of worked against this UMBH defense, IMHO....

UMBH came in with a lot of heart and hats off to them.  I yelled up to their coordinators a wish of good luck.  They will really need it once again against UWW.

At least I got to wave to the famous Keith McMillan in the press box.  I should of got his autograph, hehehehe....

Wesley had a great year.  I think we felt that lack of the Warrick factor in this game, and that was just enough to sway it..... But those turnovers.... ARGHHH!!!!

Congratulations to Wesley for a great season and an excellent game.  The D3 webcast remarked several times about the good sportsmanship exhibited on the field by both teams!!!  See you next year.

As for the 5 turnovers, now you know how we felt after the UWW game this year.

Thanks to the Wesley players' parents for the hospitality shown to us today.  It was good to meet Mr. Schatz and the pork roll sandwiches from Pat Bell's family hit the spot. 

Congrats on a great season and I'll see you guys next year at Delaware Valley, if not sooner.

[wesleydad]

gordan, it was nice meeting you and keith today.  you guys do a great job and are always welcome at the bell - schatz tailgate.

teamski, i find it interesting that you mention that schatz could not get it going in the second half.  what exactly did he do that lead to the lose.  to mention that the warrick factor was missing is totally offbase as to why wesley lost.  warrick or not, 5 turnovers is the reason wesley lost.

congrats to wesley for a great season.  get to work, you know what you need to do to take it to the next level next season.

[wesleydad]

pawesleyfan.  it was really nice meeting you and your father this year.  football is a great game and it has allowed my wife and i to meet some fantastic people.  i am not sure if we will see you in the near future, stagg bowl, so we would like to wish you and yours a very merry xmas and a safe and healthy new year.  see you next year when wesley makes another run deep into the d3 playoffs.  remember, you are always welcome at the bell - schatz tailgate.  again, thanks for your kind words for my other son, he leaves at the end of the month for 15 months.

Pa_wesleyfan,

Congratulations on another great season for the Wesley Wolverines.  The team I saw play the last 3 weeks has as many top quality playmakers as I've seen on any D3 team.  I enjoyed hanging with you and your father!

wesleydad,

Much to be proud of; #14 is a heck of a talent!  The hospitality shown by you and your tailgate crew was outstanding and much appreciated.  Thanks for everything...hope to see you all in Salem.  Please pass along my thanks to the Bell's as well!

Dali Llama,

Thanks for the lift and the grub.  Another good playoff run to culminate at the Stagg on December 15.  I'm always ready when you need a shotgun rider.

[wesleydad]

oil can, same to you.  thanks for the comments about #14.  we will see you at the stagg.  you guys are always welcome to join us.  i will pass along the good word to the bell's, they may also join us at the stagg, more of the great people we have met while our son has been at wesley.

  Llama and Oilcan

  Thanks for the slow boil. What a great three weeks!!!! You guys are #1

wesleydad(and family) and the Bells
   
   Thank you for the hospitality. Great to see  how  the tailgating has improved from a mere three or four sets of parents a few years ago to what  is now a great pre and post game tailgate. I think it is great to see the players and and ex players and coaches and OLD fans getting together. I don't know of too many places that that happens after games.

  K-Mack and Gordan

Good to see you both again. Nice to trade opinions and views face to face

  Wesley Wolverines

Great job men... You played to the end.  Congrats a on a GREAT season

Sorry, I didn't mean anything personal about my comments.  No doubt, the 5 turnovers lost the game for us. Although  I don't have Jason's stats, he was off his passing game today.  Throughout the most of the season, he was able to dial in his accuracy as the game went along, but today, he really never did.   The reason that we beat UMHB  last year was in large part due to Warrick's ability to pass the ball and keep the chains moving.   He was an improviser.  The offense today simply petered out (even with 350+ yards of offense).   

Again, I didn't mean to slam anybody, I just call it as I see it.  I don't have a kid in the game.    I will make sure that I refrain from mentioning names from now on....

Thanks Wesley for another excellent year!

Saw you waving to K-Mack but couldn't get over to you to introduce myself.
Keep supporting the Wolverines. And keep on posting.  You and wesleydad have been a welcome addition to the board as there have been very few posters here over the years.

Well, I'll be retiring from the USAF locally, so I will be around for quite a while!  I went to work tonight completely devoid of my voice.  I really belted it out today!

I am REALLY lucky to have a team like Wesley to cheer for!  I sure hope to meet you sometime.....and thanks!

Today went just like the whole season did.  UMHB looked like they had stickum on their hands while wesley had vasaline.  Turnovers were wesleys kryptonite.  Schatz did not lose the game for wesley.  The passing game was there it just wasn't working out.  Great season for the wolverines, sorry to say but this years UMHB team does not look like the same team that they have had for the past two years.  If you get 5 turnovers you should be putting up 40+.  Whitewater is going to drown the Cru next week.  Sorry the team i saw out there could not beat UWW if you think you can go ahead and try.  I predict UWW 42 UMHB 17.  Looks like a UWW vs MUC final again, kinda getting old.
