Not a good start for the Wheaton D. 2 straight 25+ yard plays for Bethel.

Wheaton comes out in 3-4 defense this year.

That is certainly an interesting change.

Wheaton D stiffens, blocks 30 yard FG attempt.

Great special teams play so far. Excellent pressure on the block and a nice looking boot from the new kicker.

Mugsy · September 12, 2009, 02:25:27 PM

So I take it the "change is afoot at Wheaton" is the switch in defensive schemes?

WahooThunder · September 12, 2009, 02:26:26 PM

Must be.

Must be.

So far they are getting gouged big time at the point of attack. Bethel RB is a very good back, but he isn't getting touched until he is in the secondary. Wheaton needs to get stout in the front 7 or it will be a long day.

Blocked field goal and Wheaton comes up empty after a turnover gave them the ball inside the Bethel 20.

Wheaton corner burned bad for a Bethel TD.

Freshman QB from Aurora Christian, Roberts is in for Wheaton. What's up with Norris?

Mugsy · September 12, 2009, 02:53:18 PM

Norris punted, so must have been planned series for Roberts. I know they are high on Roberts potential, but to take a series from Norris? Hmm... Guess they are trying to give a 2nd string QB some experience.

On to punt, so I don't think he's hurt. I was really hoping we would have just ONE quarterback this year!

Millikin up 21-0 2nd quarter

Mugsy · September 12, 2009, 02:57:36 PM

Oh my gosh... Wheaton receiver 10 yards past any Bethel defender, Norris puts the ball right on the numbers and he drops it. Easy 6 points gone...

I'm glad they like him so much, but it sure is an interesting time to throw a freshman in there.
