Any Cru fans that are headed into McMinnville this weekend.  I highly recommend headed down to 3rd street in Mac.  There are great restaurants, cool stores, multiple wine tasting bars, brew pubs, coffee shops, etc.  I've been around Mac for nearly 20 years and I still loving headed to 3rd street.


I'm planning on making the trip in 2017. Is there an Oregon equivalent of Dixie Pig I'll need to check out?

Check out Ribslayers right off 3rd street when you get into town: https://www.facebook.com/RibslayerBbqToGo/?fref=ts

ADvantage 'Catdome: 2015 National Quarterfinals Preview: Linfield (11-0) vs Mary Hardin-Baylor (11-1)
great preview
My wife and I are Alumni of both UMHB and HSU.  You think you are confused, my kids don't know which Purple and Gold team to pull for.

Great preview, Wildcat 11, just great! The CRU will have its hands full with the Cats. I hope UMHB can stand and deliver.

I'm looking forward to returning to McMinnville. I lived there from 1999 to 2006.

Go CRU!

Southwestern and TLU to join the ASC in 2017 as affiliate members in football.  Boom.

Welcome (back) Bulldogs, and welcome Bucs!


**Edit - sorry for the edits.  PC issues.

Awesome news! One thing that confuses me is the article says that the conference won't regain the automatic bid until 2018, I would have thought that adding TLU and Southwestern would have done that in 2017.

And 2018 is at the earliest. Since TLU and Southwestern are not full members of the conference, there's a two-year waiting period before they count toward the AQ.

Pat is there a reason for the 2 year waiting period? I can see logic in not counting members that are coming from D2 or NAIA but why wait for D3 members?

It's to keep schools from jumping around as much and to promote conference stability. Otherwise a bunch of people could just jump and get an AQ right away.

Sheesh, I can only imagine what would happen with no waiting period if the current system is a model for stability.  ;D

Cat 11 that was a very good preview...I like my assessment in the end though, UMHB by 3 but hey...There is a ton of respect from our side for Linfield, whether it is Riddle or Knect, every snap is going to be a tough haul for both sides, and I especially like your statement, play your game...just do your job.

Hi Kelly.  Hope you can drop by the Deluxe tonight or stop by the Tailgates down Lever from the stadium in the morning.  I am sure a lot of Tailgaters will welcome you.  Nice to see you back even though if it is just for a visit.

Good luck to the cru nation from Abilene.  I hope it will be a great game, injury free with a victory for the Texas team!

Thanks for the invite Mayor. I will try to stop by. My son and I are meeting friends at Third Street Pizza around 5:00. Spent many a fun evening there when we lived in Mac.

Not sure that's true.

"First of all, just being this deep is great. We got cut short last year. It feels good to get back over there and have a chance to make up for last year," Anderson said. ... "I think the losses build character. I think they build a hunger and let you know you're not unbeatable, too. When we lost to Hardin-Simmons, I think it did for our younger guys what the playoff losses the past couple years did to the older guys. We understand we have to come to work if we want to reach that ultimate goal."

Fredenburg is confident in Anderson's ability to pull the lessons learned from the past two postseasons and apply them to Saturday's battle. "We're excited to be in this situation and to play Linfield again. It's nice to be playing football at this time of the year."

Ok, let me rephrase. The losses hold no bearing on the outcome of tomorrow's game.  Sure, one can learn from the past, but those losses mean nothing. UMHB doesn't need to think about those losses and worry, and Linfield shouldnt hang their hat on the wins and be overconfident.  The Cru just need to play their game. Zeroes on the board when the game starts. The game referenced was from 2009. Anderson spoke of last year's game.
Watch out for the wreckingCRU defense!!

When you said "any of the losses" I was pretty sure you were referring to the three UMHB has had vs. Linfield -- that's the only reason I commented, not because I thought anyone on the current team cared about 2009.
