FB: Ohio Athletic Conference

[purple]

 Wow did Ohio College Football miss the boat not naming Mount Union sophomore Db Nick Driskill  All- D3.  He was the best DB in Division 3 this year.  OCF didn't even put him on the second team!  He should have been named the best DB in the OAC, but those awards rarely go to sophs, so I can somewhat understand.  But there is no excuse for OCF  Name me another DB who had as good a year?

Are you going to the game this weekend?

[skunks_sidekick]

WesleyDad......if the boys get it done this weekend, it will be fun to both have dogs in the hunt next weekend.  I have my doubts, because UWW is now "Mount Light" (yah UWW....you aren't there YET)..they know how to get it done when it counts. 

LK has said that this group of DB's are the most athletically talented he has ever had.  That group is led by Driskell, and Jordan.  LK commented specifically how much they were happy to get Driskell back after he had been out.  Yah...he is THAT good.  The next two years will be "Kostelnickish" for him. 

One other thing.....it's frickin' stupid cold out there!  Yah I know....it's not goofy Minneapolis cold, but it's so not fun.

hey guys, good luck again this weekend.  i just put my order in for a 1/4 keg of pig iron porter from my loca ;Dl micro brew for the stagg.  totally expect you to be there, so make sure you stop by and get a pint or 2 of it.  won a gold medal at the great american beer fest in denver this year.  skunks, i guarentee that you will enjoy it.  me thinks that wesley steps up and gets it done this year, just a gut feeling.

I hope so!  Now, if that does happen, and if we can just hold up our end it will be a new Stagg match up!  Hoping to see you in Salem--and hopefully it will be as our opponent.

After your "Whitewater love fest" came to light, it's going to take a lot more than some piss ant beer to get back on my Christmas card list.

hscoach,    +1 for making me laugh again.

Of course UW-W could win 10 straight Stagg Bowls and you will still say that.

Formerd3db,

Yes, but cannot talk my wife into it this week. Last weather forecast was cloudy and about 35 degrees. The game will be on Sports Time Ohio TV (tape delayed), but unlikely you can it there in Michigan!

Had to scrape the ice on my car windows this morning, IN FLORIDA!

You must be downwind from my snow blower

When pray tell do they announce which sides, which teams are on for the Stagg Bowl. They have a representative at both games with tickets, so.......somebody knows

And please Kirasdad, tell me you picked Welsey in the D3Photo bracket, it's my only hope except the final score of the Stagg

Yah....well call me when you get to four straight...and we will talk.  (Mount hasn't even done that...only Augie back in the prehistoric days).

Not a knock on Driskill at all; he should have been recognized.  But this is food for thought as an answer to your question.

Driskill (MTU): 55 tackles, 3 sacks, 11 TFL, 1 forced fumble, 3 fumble recoveries, 5 INT for 112 yards and 2 TD

Jones (OTT): 55 tackles, 4 sacks, 13 TFL, 2 forced fumbles, 2 fumble recoveries, 2 INT for 117 yards and 1 TD

Michell (ONU): 49 tackles, 0 sacks, .5 TFL, 1 forced fumble, 2 fumble recoveries, 6 INT for 113 yards and 1 TD

Coward (ONU): 81 tackles, 2.5 sacks, 5 TFL, 2 forced fumbles, 1 fumble recovery, 6 INT for 54 yards and 0 TD

I'm not saying Driskill isn't worthy or a stud in his own right but I am saying that the OAC has plenty of talent at DB.  Jones and Driskill have very similar numbers.  Michell and Coward are very different because of the way they were used in the defensive schemes.  All 4 are very good and I would characterize all of their years as "very good".

Some little birdie just told me that it is seventiesraider's birthday today!  Hope you have a good one--did you save any of the pain pills from your surgery??

Hey!    Most of us are nice guys or girls (sorry 413), but a couple sometimes get carried away.  Call it youthful exhuberance.
