FB: Ohio Athletic Conference

[reality check]

A decent week for scores in the OAC Pick-Em this week, as nearly everyone got at least half the available points.  wesleydad led the way with thirteeen points, one better than reality check and BergAlum.

That moves wesleydad and BergAlum into the top four, but reality check continues to extend his overall lead.  With only one week to go, will we have a repeat champion?

Week 11 spreads will come out Monday night.

Yes. 

This is my start of a Mount Union-like streak of dominance and I plan on winning for the next 13-14 consecutive seasons.

Darn, If only I had participated in week 1, I'd imagine I would be in 2nd place   
It would be a shame if that Reality Check guy forgot to participate this week.

Mount is winning this week, by 30+

That Reality Check guy never forgets.

Check the ODAC board for my respn

I'll try it again. My response is on the ODAC board. Maybe we're just nit-picking semantics. Whatever!

Stat of the day:  38.  Number of TD passes Burke had for the season his first year as a starter in 2012.  Fulford has 39 currently.  He's almost certainly going to end up, at worst, in the top 5 for single season TD passes.  Yes, the OAC stinks, but I'd surely rather have my first year starter soph. QB shredding them than looking pedestrian.   

[merlecanlas]

a lot of Fulford stats going around, including Mount beat writer Jeff Zup tweeting out each incompletion vs each TD.   Where'd that idea come from?


who cares, its Streak Week and time for some payback

as Bart Scott says, can't wait

[Raider 68]

Mount 42 -14 over John Carroll, Just too much offensive fire power and a strong defense

[merlecanlas]

If Raider68 is calling for a 28 point MUC win, I think there will be some far bigger spreads that will be predicted


to our JCU poster, is the tailgating situation at JCU still really bad?

Does Burke's number include post season? Or are we comparing where each one was at this point in the season?

It's been better in recent years, and I think that this should probably have a decent crowd this year. I have a feeling that even though it's kind of a mismatch this year, there will still be quite a few alums who will come out, given the result of the game last year. (I will personally be there! look for the JCU flag with the black army flag underneath it lol!)
I think the Mount Union tailgate section is in the Dolan parking lot (across from the library, between the admin building on the Dolan Science Center). I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of Mount fans this year too, so if your going, I would suggest getting there early!

Marietta randomly with a winning record this year!
Got to love 2017 OAC football!

Lol I think Marietta fans might take issue with the term "randomly" 

Yes.  Just look at all the Marietta fans up in arms.  It's practically a riot in here.

I just don't think it's fair to dismiss their first winning season since 2006 as "random" give the pioneers some credit, you don't stumble into a winning record in the OAC

True. But it is random to the extent that no one saw it coming!

Maybe it's just semantics. I guess I'd be happier with " Marietta surprisingly has a winning record. "

I believe all records on the Mount site are inclusive of playoffs.  Burke is listed as having 52 TD passes in 2014 and I'm fairly certain that's not in 10 games.

[Desertraider]

Burke's first year as a starter was 2012. He is listed with 38TDs in the cumulative statistics. This includes playoffs.
