CC...

I agree with you completly. The defensive side of the ball is a real problem for Bison and it will be difficult to improve short term with incoming freshman. Linebackers were all seniors but most staters return, hopefully stronger, quicker, better. Also, only two seniors on offense are gone.

I was an on and off season for Bison but overall team played more competitive so we moved in the right direction.

Congrats to my Tomcats on finishing the season strong!

Nice effort put out there by Hess and the O Line of the Tomcats as they paved the way for a record setting day on the ground.

Congrats to Waynesburg, W&J, and Geneva on postseason games!

I wish the Presidents good luck in representing the PAC in playoff action!
GO TOMCATS!!!

South Willy,

I think he was being nice in saying they already have the types of receivers they need at W&J. 

Isn't Bethany and W&J's offensive STYLE different?  IE...West Coast vs. Vertical?

THIS WEEK, THIS YEAR, the question to be answered by the W&J team is:

Can the offense score enough to cover what the defense allows?  The defense has to improve the play, or the exit will be shy of the region final.
Been wrong before.  Will be wrong again.

Saints fan....That's probably true on the offenses but I think he would be better suited to a more vertical offense with his size and sprinter speed.

I hope W & J goes several rounds in the playoffs but last Saturday's defense wouldn't get them out of the PAC. I would agree with the statement that if Waynesburg had a QB, they would be our playoff team.

Interesting that BC held Heller to 130 yds and the QB threw all over the field against us but WC receivers were singled all day.

On to track and a shot at the NCAA D3 hurdle finals.

Here is another question if The burg had a QB would Heller have 2000 yards im going with a big negative. I also think if Waynesburg wins that game they are both in the playoffs. South Good luck in the hurdles for your boy im a big track guy myself back in the day but not the hurdles. Shot putting was my thing.

The prez are going to have a shoot out this wkend with NCWC. They give up close to 300 yards but average close to 400 on offense. The QB looks like a Vince Young clone 6-5 and lanky and will cause trouble. Should be a good game that i will be attending based on the weather. Big Ern we need to get it done ill be in touch.

Pat, when are the team by team capsules coming out?

Also in a earlier post i commented on the defense being terrible and been so for a while. That may have been my frustration with them giving up points to Bethany and was in no way an attack on the current players. A few of the current players that are seniors on defense are friends of mine. At the same time over the years the defense has given up some points especially in the playoffs. We have had some great defensive players the past few years like EC, Pilato, Field, Cherish, and now Gitlitz but still give up points and the O has always been able to outscore the opponent and pull out a few wins. I hope lil Ern and Gitlitz get after Townsend this week end and put the smack down so Swallow and the Dawgs can put some points on the board

Well well the playoffs are finally here, but will it be here for long is the question. (dark i do not have time to play little games with you anymore because we are talking playoffs, something you know nothing about). I am excited for the game this weekend. Wes bring some brew son because i am starting to tailgate about 930. I will have three other peeps with me also will have some corn hole action to help pass some time. Now back to the game, Mike Sirianni is a game day guru when it comes to the playoffs. I am sure he is taking a dump and thinking of what plays he can run. I remember Mike saying to our team all you got to do is win four games in the playoffs and i will win the last one, but i will give mike credit he did more than help us win one playoff game but two. My guess is Mike is going to have to the same exact thing here with this years team. With the defense struggling i look for Mike to hold the Ball, change the speeds of his offense. I look for one series for them to go no huddle all the way down the field then maybe the next huddle after every play. Mike is pretty good at clock management. If and when he gets a lead look for the boys on Offense to hold the ball and play keep away from the Talented QB at N.C.

Now for the defense, i hope Klien can get his boys in position to play with the speed of N.C. The Presidents play a pretty gap sound defense, but if one person does not get to their gap responsibility then it could be a lot of turning around and chasing the speedy offense of N.C. I hope the black hole defense can turn into a bend don't break kind of defense this weekend. The defense will go as far as the three Captains on D will take them. Ryan Mullen, Todd Keenan, and Jeff Ernst. The Seniors got to realize that this could be the last time they ever strap on the pads again and better play like it or they will all be home for Thanksgiving, (i love you Jeff but i rather have turkey in Wash Pa).

Now the special teams this week will be the biggest decider for the game. I have scene every team just about break one against us this year. I think its time for the Boom squad to start living up to their name. With the 54 man roster there will be a lot of starters that will have to be on these teams. I look for a large improvement on kickoff and kickoff return. Because all i get flash backs of is the MHB game in 2004 when they blocked and ran back punts, Bridgewater that year also had a kick off return to the house. I would love to see a blocked punt and a big turnover on kickoff. CHUCK JUST KICK THE BALL OUT OF THE ENDZONE.

Dirty dog text me your number my phone broke and i do not have your number in it.

I think their will be a lot of players making big things happening this weekend. Gitlitz will have 15 tackles one sack and one interception. I also look for the d-line to contain the Vick like qb and shock the playoff scene with a total of 4.5 sacks for the game. >:(

I heard Pat Coleman's prediction of W&J being the South's biggest disappointment is hanging up in the locker room.

Probably not the first time. But they better save the emotion for next week -- that's when they'll need it.

Here's an open reminder that a pick to disappoint doesn't mean a first-round loss. So when W&J wins this Saturday, I hope we don't hear from them in the newspaper that we picked them to lose, like we heard in 2004.

Pat i like the confidence in their ability to win this weekend, as it is at least some confidence in W&J. I think NCWC is by far the best 8 seed in the entire bracket. They gave Wesley and Widner all they could handle. Wesley is also a team that has pounded UMHB the last two years. W&J is going to be in for a battle. I am going to throw my prediction out there tonight.

W&J 42 NCWC 31

Swallow and the Dawgs put points up all day while the D stops NC enough to host UMHB next weekend. Todd Young better hit the bench press as there will be plenty of chest bumping this weekend. Big Ern myself and couple of my friends will be down lets light it up. Also has anyone beat the world record walkie talkie toss at Cameron stadium yet or does Chris Mosely still hold the record. Thats all till after the game.

As an ASC fan, how will the W&J players and fans view these playoffs in any other way, but a huge disappointment if the Presidents don't make the Semi-finals?

After all, you are the #1 seed!

Would it be the big South Region disappointment for the UMHB not to make the semi-finals?  Not necessarily as the #4 seed.  And it is a Texas shootout against Trinity, regardless of the form chart!

Would it be a disappointment for Muhlenberg not to make the Semis?  No!  The Centennial will not have been that close to the Semis in years!  The Mules in having a "once-in-a-century" season!

Wesley is down a bit from 2005 and 2006 and would have beat W&J on the road.  Only as the #2 choice of a disappointment, if W&J won.

Salisbury, HSC, NCWC and Trinity are glad to be playing in week#12!

Following the logic out, the only choice to disappoint is W&J.

Bob.Gregg

Based on the much more knowledgable D3football.com pollsters, UMHB not making the national semifinals would be the greatest disappointment out of the South Region.

According to the same wizards, Wesley not making the national semifinals would be a greater disappointment than W&J.

Or, perhaps, NOW we'll base the disappointment factor on the NCAA committee and THEIR rankings.

Somewhere, sometime, somebody changed their minds...again!

Um, Pat, one of your guys did (pick W&J to lose) considering Bridgewater and W&J played in the first round...



"Champion
Keith: Forced to choose, I like Bridgewater's playoff experience and the fact that they were tested early in the season and perhaps worked out the kinks since then."
