Great news.  Mount Union is getting a new president.  Things are looking up in Alliance.

Hopefully he is athletic friendly and doesn't operate like the Capital pres that ended Jim Collins' run.

Giese could be a great guy. I'll take the word of others on the board about that, but I susspect LK and him don't exchange Christmas cards

And yet...they do. In fact I got mine from The Giese's last week. I suspect LK and VK and everyone else at Mount got theirs as well.

Time to bring the title back to Title Town!

ROLL RAIDERS ROLL!!

I think the Stagg Bowl should be renamed. Unfortunately the perfect name appears to be taken:

Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl

I mean sure you'd have to lose the Las Vegas part, and purple would be required. The teams playing are the Utah Utes and Colorado State Rams.....neither wear purple.

Game Day!!!  Safe travels to all and an injury free game!!!  Pulling for Mount Union to Bring the title home.  Go Raiders!!

My Prediction for 2014 Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl is 38-21 in favor of The University Of Mount Union Purple Raiders of Alliance Ohio  USA ! Coach Vince Kehres along  with his fine staff of assistants knows what those Purple Gridders must do to take down the Warhawks . The University Of Wisconsin Whitewater footballers <> must go down<> and they <>will go down<> tonight ! Kevin Burke is the big factor for UMU  to win this game.The "Shadow Knows" and this is another FACTOID .

Eagerly turned on ESPNU hoping to catch some pre-game. Instead I'm watching some moron wearing red dress shoes talking about a bracket full of Great Plays?

Let's Go Mount!

[jaypeter]

Early look on the first drive shows Mount's d-line getting moved around.  That will make a long night if it stays the same.

But a break on the XP.

Wonder if the ref said something to the receiver after that TD?  Looked sorta like it.


Now time for the offense...cmon Purple Raiders!

[amonachino]

Mount has to get their butts in gear right now.

[BrowardRaider]

Hate to say it, but Mount needs an Answer and a sustained drive, the D is gassed and getting pushed around. Have they played super soft coverage all season or this something new- apologies for the ignorance this late in the year

[amonachino]

We are digging ourselves a hole again. 

[jaypeter]

We just got a HUUUUUGE break.  Don't agree with it but I'll take it!

[amonachino]

Got to play better defense take some chances.
