Great article in the Killeen Daily Herald about Hardin-Simmons. I thought I would pass a link along for your reading enjoyment.

Since 1990, Hardin-Simmons winningest college program in Texas

Thanks for the link, UMHB....  (too long of a handle!   ;D )  The article was well written and on-target, IMO.

No problem Josh... on the handle, call me whatever you want, just call me to supper!

The handle describes my team loyalty as well as my geographical location. I am a loyal Cru fan (Up with the Purple!) and would be a season ticket holder if I lived in Central Texas. However, since I reside in McMinnville, Oregon the next best thing is Linfield! I couldn't lose in the Stagg.

I'm getting ready for UMHB's visit to Oregon on September 10. It will be my only opportunity to see the Cru in person. I'm cleaning the grill and looking forward to some great tailgating and then watching UMHB put a tail whippin' on Willamette. Meanwhile, about 12 miles west of Salem (Oregon) - home to Willamette, Linfield will be demolishing Western Oregon Univ. at Monmoth. It will be a great day for this Cru/Wildcat fan.

UMHBalum-n-catland, that avatar is rather insensitive to be posting on the ASC board.  How about an avatar that at least shows a UMHB TD over Linfield on the ASC boards?  ;D

What ever you decide to do on the NWC boards is their business? :D

Be sure and post for the ASC pick'em contest!

The avatar has a UMHB player and a Linfield player in the same shot (the only one I could find). And I am not certain that it is a touchdown. So, the point is to have both teams represented in one picture.  8)

Thanks UMHBalum-n-catland for the explanation.  It has been a long off-season, reading the outlandish posts by those Cat-fans. :)

The best we can hope for is a repeat by the ASC in the Stagg Bowl and an ASC win this time!

How about taking some pictures at the UMHB-Willamette game and posting them? ;D

Yeah, I know some of the Cat fans. Mostly they are a good bunch of folks. However, you have to hand it to them, 50 consecutive years of winning seasons is pretty impressive. As Mac Davis used to sing, "Oh Lord its hard to be humble..."

I am proud of UMHB, they gave the Cats all they could handle.

I'll do my best to get some pictures. I will have my hands full that day with helping to feed the UMHB alumni, staff and fans that are flying out for the game. However, I will to my best to get some game shots.

I need to do some work with my new digital camera. I have been helping out with a local news paper on high school sports coverage. Hence, I needed a better camera. Now I have to learn how to use it!

UMHBalum, perhaps you could put in the requisiton to the Alumni Affairs office at UMHB and let them buy your new digital camera.

You could be the auxillary support alum for the northwestern US and use the camera for UMHB functions in your area! ;D

Ralph,

LOL... if only there were enough alumni in the Northwest to even begin to justify thinking about such a request.

When UMHB played Willamette at Salem in 2003, the invitation to the tailgate party only went to alumni. There were a total of 5 present (and that was counting me and my wife). This year, I asked the alumni office to invite all the UMHB fans making the trip. We are hoping for a good turnout. And an even better game... as in UMHB by at least 4 touchdowns!

My UMHB connections tell me that Josh Welch is tabbed to start at QB. I only hope that with him at the helm they might open the offense up a bit and throw more. We shall see...

I would hope so.   The kid only took them to the Stagg Bowl as a backup last year.

UMHB-N-Catland..... The photo works for me, Let me know where you are going to set up before the game, I hope to make it to salem at half-time. We should have the wolves  put away early!  ;D
Only at a D3 football game could you have 2 seats on the 50 yard line (2 rows behind bluenote) and have an obstructed view!

Hey Tux,

I am quite certain the Cats will have things well in hand by the end of the first quarter. If you really think you might slide by, let me know. I will look for you.

I know the Linfield game will be a rout and I am hoping UMHB will follow suit by drubbing the Bearcats.

A friend that was at the Stagg sent me a championship game program. After seeing all your football memorbilia, I was wondering if you would like it as an additional momento of the Cat's 2004 championship season? If so, I will drop it by some time.

GO UMHB    GO LINFIELD
