FB: Ohio Athletic Conference

[WRMUalum13]

30 mph winds + Pouring down rain + 17 rushing attempts = loss

Granted we were spoiled for decades by LK's mastermind, but that's not a winning game plan.  And we all knew that mid-week.

Nor is that caliber of QB play.  If Plunk was scared to take a hit against NCC, what would he have looked like against the quality of athlete that UWW or MHB bring.

Oh well, I get to attend the Stagg next week as a casual observer.

The lack of running is kinda wild when you consider both our backs average over 5 yards a carry. This was always a pass first offense though. Again, I think the missing component was the read option from the QB, I think adding that element makes this offense work much better.

Something we all have been saying since the Spring season. This offense was/is not only missing something as far as rhythm, but also missing something to make the defense think about. Hard to run read-option if 98% of the time everyone can just key on the RB.

Congrats to Mt Union on a great season, not what you guys usually expect but impressive to 99% of D3 fans.

So, what is the feel for the Mount Union faithful going to the Stagg Bowl?
I had "use or lose" leave scheduled for next weekend, and regardless, the Mother-in-Law's health has us making the trip.
Told the lovely Wife, I will go (if not Mount Union participating) depending on the match-up.
Right now, a "viewing party" at Buffalo Wild Wings?"

My thinking is that more us locals go, the more likely Canton is to host again in the future.

Copy all ... Thanks!

How about watching it with MUC57?  Hey, Air Force buddy, what are your plans?

[edward de vere]

Was MUC57 the gentleman of a certain vintage in the stands that was wearing on his head a purple . . . hedgehog? . . . tumbleweed? . . . upside-down woman's carpetbag purse???

Just bought Stagg Bowl tickets.  Civic pride demands it.  Besides, I want that Club Level Benson experience.

Is the extra $15 worth it?

LOL! I was watching the game with my wife, and when that guy came on, I told her "That could be MUC57". Funny thing is she knew who I was talking about!

The Club Level is nice.  I've been there, but not during a game.  Is it worth the extra $15?  I'll have to let you know.

Hope to see our Mount Union friends sitting with the Cardinal fans next week.  Thank you all for your hospitality in Alliance this weekend... everyone except that jack*ss that got arrested in front of the NCC fan section for taunting and punching a cop... leave him at home.

An unfortunate and reprehensible feature of American society today.  Hope he's still sitting in jail.
