WHY would you not file paperwork to host all the way through?

Perhaps Centre, KY could explain....


Maybe they listened to what I was saying about hosting....  probably not!

[OldPhart]

Regarding Pat's note that Thiel would not host the 3rd game because they didn't file  paperwork: I had heard that Thiel had filed the paperwork for the 3rd game - but were tardy with it.  My Thiel source (who prefers to remain anonymous) indicated to me today that the AA committee may be considering an exception that would allow Thiel to host a 3rd game should they defeat Bridgewater.  If indeed the AA is considering an exception, I doubt that any decision would be made before Saturday afternoon.  With respect to hosting the 4th game - I don't know if any paperwork has been filed by Thiel.

Pat - is your source definite that Thiel has no chance of hosting the 3rd and 4th rounds?

You've gotta expand on that a bit, Bob, seeing as how Centre's never been IN the D3 football playoffs ... did they blow it in another sport?

OldPhart,

It's unfortunate that Thiel didn't file the paperwork in time.  Back in 2000, that ended up costing Bridgewater a home game in the 2nd round, where they ended up flying to Texas to face Trinity.  

I have nothing against Thiel, but if they would be allowed to host, I'd want to know why an exception was made for them, and not other teams in the past.

Thats a shot in the chest but doesnt matter if Thiel does not take care of the task at hand this week and continue to play as a band of brothers, and from what it sounds like everyone has them as a underdog on their own turf!  No appreciation TC, and this should make them hungrier than even before.  Cant wait till Saturday heck i cant even wait till thursday so i can play in our Turkey Bowl and eat some quality food!  But saturday will be the day that someone will prove their abilities and dominance on the field.

[Pat Coleman]

They wouldn't have bothered to tell us if it weren't a done deal. Mofia, don't get all worked up over an exception.

[Cleveland Cartel]

Mizoou,

My cartel has your Mafia in check!

All conference Honors on here from the ODAC...Bridgewater has some solid players seems like mainly on the defensive side of the ball.  But no receivers making first second or honorable mention unless you include their TE who was Honorable Mention.....Reason for this? who knows maybe with their two stud running backs rotation they have.  They are ranked 9th in rushing i believe in the nation, or a very high caliber of pass heavy teams in their league and a plethora of high caliber recievers.  Regardless i believe shutting down their run game included in the cold weather will be the defining point in the game for Thiel.

Mizoou,

My cartel has your Mafia in check!

  Wow, got two quick responses on that.  Don't worry fellas.  If I was worked up, you'd see some of these '!!!!!!' tipping you off. 

For now, wondering about the 'what ifs' of who could have hosted next round is about as important as clamoring over if Ferrum should really be the Number 2 seed heading into the last week of the regular season.  In the end, it may not really matter.

[Cleveland Cartel]

Mizz,

Exactly right!

Are you coming up to Greenville this weekend for the BW VS THIEL??? If so your Mafia and my cartel should enjoy the pregame festivities at Thiel.....Just a thought....Llama that goes for you too and Pitt knows the pregame drill!

I'll be there for sure, but I have no mafia . Stone Station on the road will hopefully be set-up early. What is the lowdown  for tailgating at Thiel? I won't be bringing the pull behind grill due to weather but will have my 9x9 tent, flags and cooler in tow. What are the chances I can find a spot to set it up? Let me know where the drill is happening and I will definitely stop by and introduce myself. 

[spliskin]

That is disappointing that someone in administration dropped the ball for Thiel. I heard that they had some "playoff committee" set up a month or so before the playoffs to take care of all this NCAA BS. Someone may be (should be) on the hot seat over this FUBAR mistake. This is inexcusable but I hope it doesn't become a distraction bc it really won't matter until Saturday at around 4:00pm.

Cleveland Cartel- Dont sleep on our recievers.   We may not have one that stands above all the others, but we have a plethora of talent at the position.  We've had 5 different recievers who have led the team in receptions in the 10 games we have played (not including George Mason).  I think you will be impressed with how good of a group they are once you see them in action.

[Bob.Gregg]

You've gotta expand on that a bit, Bob, seeing as how Centre's never been IN the D3 football playoffs ... did they blow it in another sport?

Back in the '80s I believe it was, Centre failed to file paperwork to participate in the DIII playoffs.  The way I understand it--Centre was actually selected, but then was not allowed to participate, and W&J got the bid.  I wish I could remember what year....age thing, you know!

[Olinemom]

Hey Cartel,
Can we order up some heated bleacher seats as well

Naw that wouldn't be true football now would it?

What, no heated dome stadium?  Just have them close the dome and turn on the heat.  And they can leave the bleachers as is.   Who's bringing the fire pit since Skoal Train can't make this one?
