FB: Presidents' Athletic Conference

[CNU85]

Bob,

Only a few hours left to see the official results. D3 has W&J in with CNU headed that way. Let's see how the NCAA sees it. Pat and gang are usually not too far off the mark.

Good Luck!

Hey Bob - you're in!! I most likely will not make the trip. Too bad, I was hoping to meet up again. But other commitments will keep me away.

Good Luck!

congrats to the Presidents.  You guys need alot to happen and thankfully, it did.  They get another chance to compete... thoughts on the games?

Thomas More's loss to Geneva hurts.. before, they were in line for a higher seed.  Now instead of MUC, we travel to North Central.  Their work is cut out for them.  It will be a good experience for a young team. 

I think the PAC is going to be dealing with Hilverts crew for the next few years.

Congrats to Thomas More.  Here are North Central's cumulative stats

Hey '85.  Sorry you won't be making the trip.

As I said about 10 o'clock last night--

In, in the South, and at home!

I did have that complete package first!

I am happy for the Presidents... because of the loss to Geneva, Thomas More is in worse shape (on road, in North at #1 NCC) than W&J.  .  . eventhough they beat W&J.

I think its a lesson to be learned for the young Saints..  You HAVE to show up to each game.  Too bad they didn't have a bye week to get over the win.  

The Saints are banged up after yesterday's win in the Bridge Bowl.  I'm happy with the win.. very happy (more so than for winning the PAC), and I hope they can get healthy quickly and play their best game of the year on Saturday.

Congrats to Thomas More!  We will be looking forward to seeing you all in Naperville next Saturday.  If you are planning on making the trip an overnight, you'll find plenty of great restaurants and nightlife right next to Benedetti-Wehrli Stadium in downtown Naperville, as well!

[SaintsFAN]

Thanks, NT. 

I've been to Naperville and have family and friends in the area.  I'm not 100% sure about making the trip yet, but if I do... I'm sure we'll fit in the game also

re:  CNU at W&J

I did some research on Christopher Newport last week for the Triple Take... what I found was staggering.  The Captains do not throw very much period.  They have a transfer RB from University of Cincinnati ...who has a 283 yard game this year.  Going into last weekend, they had only thrown for 810 yards.  This is still a crazy low stat...even if you take into account they lost a game to the Hurricane in week 1 against Wesley.

The focal point is simple for the Presidents... stop the run.  Do this and they win.  If they don't, that defense will be gassed and then anything can happen (playaction, long runs).

Did you want a cookie?

[Bob.Gregg]

Did you want a cookie?

No, thanks.  Since the big "D", I bake all my own.

I prefer brownies...

I think I met a great girl for this Saturday night... someone compared her to Gus Frerotte though!!  She literally told us that she "had muscles in her brain and worked them out"... I made sure she repeated it.

That's about right. The RB you speak of had 4 straight 200 yd games. At one point he was leading the nation in rushing per game. I think he fell behind by .05 after only gaining 181 (he needed 182) in the last game. I'm sure W&J is watching game film right now!

And I heard yesterday that Swallow is still the QB. Yikes!!! He's good and I was hoping CNU would never have to play him again!
