Why must we be so bound to apples for these idioms? Why not a superior fruit like a pomegranate?

Titan Q

Congrats and thank you to the 23 members of the IWU senior class. 30-10 overall record,  27-7 CCIW, 2 conference championships.

Special shout-out to Brandon Bauer for rewriting the IWU QB records -  completions (566), yards (6,746), TDs (62). All while missing the final 6 games of his career.

A great group that will be hard to replace.

NCC fans have a nervous wait today. UWW did them no favors.the D3.com staff has them in the field by a hair. It could go the other way.  If WashU (7-3) gets back into the rankings then they are in for sure but that would be over two 2 loss teams.

Crazy to think Broc Rutter May have played his final game.

100% the smart thing for the North RAC to do would be to rank WashU and protect North Central.  There's no guarantee that the national committee wouldn't kick that back and say try again, but they should try.  I think it's clear that North Central and JCU aren't both getting in, so the RAC should do whatever they can to fortify one profile or another.   

I'm not sure though any 3 loss team is going to get through to the final rankings.

NCC could be out or they could get a home game. And if NCCs season is over it's driven largely by factors they had no part in. A WashU lost at home in OT to Millikin, a UWW team that doesn't win on the final night (losing on the final night gets you a 2 seed? While NCC loses early to a 1 seed and stays home).

Whether we get in or not, the process is flawed.  John Carroll also deserves to be in.

And Wartburg's loss to Central in OT.

Who is out so John Carroll can be in?

And based on what should John Carroll be in?
