Cru played really well yesterday.  Was a fun game to watch from the warmth of my living room lol.  Hopefully they come and play like that on Friday!  It kind of feels like they have the team peaking at the exact right time honestly.   Has anyone seen any post game press conferences uploaded anywhere?

I do not have the video, but the audio from both press conferences is up on our website at the bottom of my game story...

Yeah, I just added them today, when people were asking about the press conference recordings. I had thought UW-Whitewater would've posted them, but I haven't seen any video or audio of the press conferences come out from them.

Let's go!! All that puff and smugness got shoved down their throat. Great team, great win. Let's go, Cru!!!

You've got issues man.

Ok. Well, that's fine. Not sure how I have issues when UWW fans are trolling on Twitter, chanting F*** You Texas, chanting You Ain't Baylor, and who knows what else.

I have all respect for UWW, I've welcomed fans when they come to Belton, and I've applauded the team when they've walked off the field.

So to say there was some smugness and bravado from UWW and saying I have issues...?? Ok.

This isn't Twitter.

There is generally a level of politeness on these boards, not a ton of real nasty trash talk although I have seen it occasionally. Twitter on the other hand is just the wild west lol, anything and everything will be said from fans to fans during the game week.

However, I did detect what I perceived to be a touch of smugness from UWW leading up to the game with 10-14 point win predictions & some talk about our lack of competition leading up to this game.. But that is what I'd expect from fans of UWW! One of the greatest collegiate programs in history, and I don't mind the confidence and bold predictions. That's what makes the games fun to watch!

Well, it is not my intent to be rude. I'm simply pointing out that I perceived some lack of respect for the Cru: lax schedule, not a strong conference, WIAC being the "It" conference, size, scheme, weather...etc. so I was pumped that, with all the bravado and downplay of UMHB's ability, that we were able to get our first win at the Perc.

Watch out for the wreckingCRU defense!!

UMHB definitely looked like a different team from 2019. The 2018 team was awesome, more of a power team, at least when they beat UWW. That RB, Miller, refused to be tackled.

NCC has a guy like that in Greenfield- it is one of the things I'm most looking forward to watching.  Greenfield did to UWW in 2019 what Miller did in 2018. Watching the game Saturday I noticed the sure and physical tackling from UMHB. Will they do the same vs. Greenfield- can't wait to watch it.

These two teams, IMO, are absolutely the best two in D3 and the winner will truly be deserving of the trophy.

Haven't seen them much in the playoffs, but UMHB has 2 backs that bring more physicallity than Thomas. Cormier (27) is 5'10 225 and runs downhill (he's been the #2 RB for the playoffs) Montana Miller  (22) is 5'9" 225 (and the youngest brother of Malcom and Markieth (2018 RB)) has a similar running style to Cormier. All three line up in the Jumbo wildcat formation Cormier scored on last week w Cormier playing qb in that formation. If the weather is yuck on Friday the run game could get interesting
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.

I'm thinking The Cru is going to take NC down. They won't be able to withstand your passing attack and running abilities... I'm rooting for the CRU! FROM THE CATDOME!
