FB: Ohio Athletic Conference

[reality check]

Simmons punches it in from one yard out on 4th and goal.  2 pt conversion good.  ONU up 17-0 late in the first.

A third TD for UMU at the start of the 2nd quarter, 21-0

[Kehresma]

Raiders 28 St Lawrence 0 on Seaman "throw away" pass (or so I thought) to CS III

[reality check]

Witt picked off for the third time in the first half.  ONU up 24-0 on Simmons' second rushing TD of the day. 

Witt came in averaging over 400 yards of total offense and has 35 yards with under four left in the first half.

Mount union 35- 0 at the half

Unfortunately the stands at Dial-Roberson aren't as full as they should be.  I just found out ONU is on Fall Break and will be so through the second round.  I don't know if it works this where for all OAC schools but ONU closes the residence halls when the school is on break so students have to get out of town unless they live off-campus.

24-0 at the half.

UWW 7 -  Franklin 7 4:15 in the 1st.

According to the Live Stats site for UWW, they have a Fr. QB playing, Blanchard has no stats.

Too bad about the students, but you'd hope they'd be some decent local support.  They're missing out on some good football at a good venue.  I'd be there if I wasn't out of state.  Here's hoping the Polar Bears handle NCC next week and Franklin pulls the upset of the decade (7 - 7 late in the 1st) so ONU gets the regional final at home.

Seaman is done for the day, 2 minutes into the 3rd Quarter.  Piloto is in with the 1st team O-Line.  Shorts is out too.

Wow, that is quite late in the semester to have a fall break - at least compared to most other DIII schools.  Anyway, interesting to hear of those scores you mention.  Still, a long way to go in both games and especially the Franklin/UWW one.  In that same vein, it was reported that Trine was up 27-7 on DePauw late in the 1st quarter.  I don't have an update as yet.

Sounds like St Lawrence has a decent defense.  Too bad they lost their starting QB in the 1st Qtr.  It might have been closer.

Is ONU on the Quarter system?  Fall Quarter, Winter Quarter, Spring Quarter and Summer Quarter...

Piloto just threw his 1st Mount TD: 49-0

...But just about right for the quarter.     I read a post yesterday by WONB that this was the last fall quarter for ONU...so it sounds as though they may be moving to semesters.
