... and I've been watching North Park football for four decades. I'm real familiar with what happens to a team when it beats non-con patsies and then enters CCIW play with a roster loaded with players who have absolutely no idea of what a genuine CCIW-level opponent looks like.

yup, for year's Elmhurst would beat up on Ripon, Benedictine, CUC, UChicago (most years) only to get devoured by AC/IWU/MU/WC.   In any event, I am looking forward to Elmhurst's meeting with UWRF.

Isn't it 5 decades now that it is 2020?   

Yes, an 0-2 team vs. a 1-1 team.

I'm looking forward to it as well, but only because I'm still bitter about them ringing that darn bell every time they beat us in college.

Did someone mention a bell that rings?

It's understandable you don't remember it as you haven't seen it in 5 years or something like that.

If I'm not mistaken, I think kovo was talking about some Elmhurst bell.  I've heard stories about the thing, but don't recall ever having seen/heard it.

I prefer the sound that walnut and bronze makes, personally.

Yes, someone did. And it's a very nice little bell that was very well earned, which deserves to be applauded. 👏
But can anyone from North DuPage deny they'd trade the trophy with the little bell that rings for the trophy the South DuPagers have that doesn't even have a bell?  🤔

I would think that there should be no reason whatsoever about what a genuine CCIW-level opponent looks like.
I mean has the team that has absolutely no idea ever heard of film? 🤷🏻‍♂️  📹  🖥

Surprised this took this long to be said.

Our brethren from Wheaton, and usee in particular, were pretty damn supportive all postseason, even after their tough beat.  Tough to kick dirt in their face after that.  Return fire, however, is a different story.

Pat's Signature says Let's discuss (sports) in a positive way, sometimes kidding each other with no disrespect.

That was my intent as well, I believe, as that of each of the posters/posts on this topic.
