FB: Ohio Athletic Conference

[BillyRayJimBob]

And before I shut up and crawl back into my "cave," and watch the Purple Raiders (and Buckeyes), nice to see "College Gane Day" show the USMMA's uniform for today's Secretary's Cup, and make mention of them and the USCGA.

Cheers!

what a horribly called game offensively for the Raiders.  zero creativity, unbelievably predictable

"Horrible" is far less than descriptive of this team performance.

However...  "WOW"

Absolutely correct. This is ridiculous...

And a tip ball to Wayne Ruby, who has been quiet all day, comes up with the biggest play of his career! And then is literally crushed by his own teammates. I hope he is going to be ok...

Poor Yellow Jackets. They deserved this win.

BW could snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

Legitimately shocked Mount didn't call a RB screen on the Hail Mary play. Seems like it's the only play on the call sheet.

Hate to say it, but this staff, this team, and Plunk ain't it. Long for the days of a QB who can sling it.

OMG

[D3fanboy]

any chance of an old, semi-retired coaching legend taking over playcalling duties next week?

[hsbsballcoach7]

First of all, I hope Ruby and Elijah Franklin are okay because they're going to be needed for the playoffs. Second, I'm shocked that Mount hasn't been more creative in the run game with formations, etc. Wasn't Dartt the OC when we had Nemeth and BJ Mitchell in the backfield? There were lots of counters, movement,  shifting, variety in fakes and play action. Why can't we have that? Hopefully Mount gets a high seed to try something different out on offense.

Dummy question here, but why didn't Mount return the kick? I feel like they easily would've gotten to the 40-45 or more.

Assuming to save time on the clock?

Hilarious the "taking a photo in the endzone" penalty cost the flaming pile. BW gonna BW.

Or worse, that way-too-long-too-develop RB-draw.

Maybe the confidence was shot since the receivers wanted to drop everything easy today. Not the biggest fan of Plunk, but it is hard to be successful when the when you eat about 10 drops, and one turns into a pick.

I am not sure what is going on with this entire iteration of Mount Union (the Dartt/Plunk era so far), but it is definitely looking like #14 is not in the cards until there are significant changes: Personnel, Attitude, Strength and Conditioning. Improvement needs to happen across the board. If this team manages to make a deep run, I would be more willing to attribute it to the entire division being down and someone having to win rather than Mount just being good.

Shame, because I am rooting for Dartt hard.

The playcalling was predictable, that let BWU back in the game. Where was the rush? Putting the offense to bed early and banking on the defense to win the game puts alot of pressure on the defense. If nothing was learned today, then it will be a short playoff experience.

Everything I am thinking about this terrible Raider performance has already been said.  Let's just call it "The Miracle In Berea" and move on to next week.

How much did it, though? Mount started that drive at the 26. A fair catch on a kick-off starts them at the 25. Given the way the last play played out, would the extra yard have mattered?
