Predictions

Grove City at Thiel*

Mercer cup battle. Has not been much of a battle lately as Thiel has smacked the cup right from GCC hands. More of the same as the cup stays in Greenville. Minton and Hess get rolling with over 100 for both.

Thiel 21 GCC 3

Thomas More at Saint Vincent*

TMC picked up a good victory for a young team last week. Look for them to continue to get better and stomp SVC. Collier runs for 165 and 3 Td's.

Saints 38 SVC 6

Wash. & Jeff. at Westminster*

Wes and Big Ern will be in attendence for what should be a blowout. Westminnie has had no answer for W&J recently and i look for more of the same. Swallow rebounds and throws for 4 TD's and Mathews runs for 2 TD. Todd Young chest bumps will be many with his lineman after Td's. This one will be over sometime in the 3rd quarter.

W&J 47 Westminster 14

Waynesburg at Bethany*

Bethany has no run defense and not much offense lately. This spells doom for the bison. Heller runs wild (220 3 TD)and the D clamps down. Looking foward to the late year showdown in the burg with W&J with the automatic qualifier possibly in the balance.

Waynesburg 42 Bethany 7

Good Luck to all

Big Ern see you saturday

Go Prez

Well its already Friday and time for some predictions.

I have to start off with the Presidents, i do not see a Stanford type of upset, but i do see a hard fought game. It will be muddy and cold. The presidents will win a close game but Westminster will be stingy on defense.
Matthews will have 180 yards of total offense and i look for Kurt Jones Who Kurt Jones to rack up over a 100 yards on the ground. Keenan will be the defensive player for the Presidents, also look for Jeff Ernst and Jacob Bloomhoff to cause havoc in the backfield for the Titans
W&J 24-WEST 14


Thiel roles into this weeks game with some swagger, i look for them to get the running game going as Minton will rush for 150 yards and 2 TD's. Thiel wins an easy one. Grove city will score on a bad snap in thiels end zone.
TC 38- GCC 2

Waynesburg is searching for the perfect season and will continue that voyage as they will stay on track and feed the freshman sensation to another 200 + game on the ground.
WC 42 BC 21


I believe Saintsfan will enjoy a win from not only from TMC, but also the upset of the week of Notre Dame, but back to DIII. TMC will keep the bearcats winless, but do not think for a second that ST. V will back down.
TMC 28 ST. V 17

Big Ern,

Did you just pick W&J to win 24-14 or was that a typo?

Big Ern was punked out by Mad Mike Sirianni on sat as the prez ramped up the passing game and let Swallow go to work. The head ball coach was drawing up passing plays in the dirt as everything was working. As i have said before Mcafferty is a stud and they got him the ball. One thing that has me worried is the D looked bad and there was some sloppiness on special teams. Westminster is terrible and they had some spurts where they moved the ball. After watching Swallow play a good many times i agree that he is the best QB to ever play at W&J. He is cool and poised in the pocket and throws a nice ball. Mathews was hurt and carted off the field in the third but the collection of young backs on hand put on a show in the second half.

Pitt i hope i am wrong but it seems like Thiel is heading to Mediocrity or worse with their second straight disappointing season. I dont think Leip had 5-5 or 4-6 seasons in mind after two consecutive winning seasons and a playoff birth. Curious on your thoughts.

Wes,

I know that Leip did not have this in mind. They have taken many steps forward since his stint began in 2001. I don't think they will return to the "Old Thiel" as they have alot of good young players who are playing now. They also went through alot of coaching changes this year. It will take this year for them to get back on track. Hopefully, they can regroup and finish the season strong so they can carry some momentum into next year.

I do agree that Swallon is the best qb ahead of Dawson at W&J. The question might be where does McCafferty and Matthews rank? What is the status on Matthews?
GO TOMCATS!!!

Welcome OLine Coach.  We need someone to slow down W&J.

Don't worry, BigErn pretty much brings us down on all levels.

OLine Coach

Thanks for the welcome.  Things seem a little more at ease in here as of late.  I remember a few years back when some guys from The J were on here (I think they were actual players) talking all kinds of smack.  It was quite amusing.   Anyways...

I'm actually going down to Waynesburg this weekend for the Thiel game.  Looking forward to seeing Heller run the ball.  What happened to Thiel this year?  Can they cause problems for the Jackets?

Bob.Gregg

With everybody but WU & W&J having two losses already, a loss to Thiel doesn't really hurt Waynesburg.  As long as that's the only loss for the Jackets.

If they beat W&J on the 27th, and win the rest, they'd win the TB (head-to-head) and take the AQ.
Been wrong before.  Will be wrong again.

oline coach,

Welcome. . . and I remember what you are talking about (players on here). . .if I recall there was also a DB's coach on here.

Not that he was the only coach to have posted on here. . .and I'm not talking about another W&J coach.

Pitt i dont think thiel will ever go back to the basement as Leip is to good of a coach for that. I dont beleive that you can put Mcafferty and Mathews in the top five recievers/Rb's ever @ W&J but they are very good none the less.

Oline welcome aboard its amazing when a team goes 6-0 to start a season the fans come out. I bet no one is calling for Shepas' head now after the Hot start. Should be a big showdown in the burg in two weeks.

Saints seems like your team is pulling Freshman Qb's off the bench every week who do you think is the best of the two and did the other get hurt.

I remember talking to Mike Sirianni back when he was offensive coordinator and I think he took a pretty dim view of coaches posting, though since he wasn't head coach he didn't have any control over it.

Pat,

You're right...though I don't know if that DB coach was coaching after he took the head position at W&J.

I don't know why any coach would like anyone associated with the day to day operations of the program to be on here...

Its for us 'fans'
