with a rb like Sulo and a ? starter at QB, I think we may see this for the 1st 3 or 4 games..hopefully we will be balanced enough before we play the "School 20 minutes north of North Central College who changed their name to what goes with Lightning"

very nice. now you are catching on. if you will just start posting about preseason games you will be fully trained! 8)

One problem with labeling non-conference games as pre-season-------

In every sport I can think of, PRE season games DON"T COUNT

So---If Wheaton played a PRE-season game Sat, THEY'RE STILL WINLESS !!!!!!   ;D

... and so is everyone else.

And guess what, if Augie runs the table in the CCIW they'll still be going to the playoffs anyway, just like if Wheaton goes 3-0 against Albion, Wash, and Hope, but loses to North Central and Augie, they won't be going to the playoffs.

I just had to post on the pre-season debate because there just can't be a meanigless debate that no side can ever win that I havn't been involved in. I think Usee can call the non-conference portion of the schedule anything he wants to call it.

Are there any players from the CCIW currently in the NFL?   or maybe who was the last one that got some playing time in anything but PRESEASON (which can be hard to define)....:)

So, lets work on our post count:
Pre-Season in the land I come fron (Indiana) in HS football, ALL schools make the playoffs!  So does this mean that each school plays 9 Pre-Season game and no "Regular" season games?

In D3 "Pre-Season" games are called Scrimages.  Non-Conference ganes do mean something or else we wouldn't have Ranking in the Polls or Playoffs.

I was at NCC when Wheaton made the change.

It may have been discussed on the previous CCIW board, but why did the Thunder change from the Crusaders?

Mugsey, Usee?

Yeah, we cover this every year.  ;D

Exodus 20:18
When the people saw the thunder and lightning and heard the trumpet and saw the mountain in smoke, they trembled with fear.

1 Samuel 2:10
those who oppose the LORD will be shattered. He will thunder against them from heaven; the LORD will judge the ends of the earth. "He will give strength to his king and exalt the horn of his anointed."

Among other references ...

And Crusaders was deemed to have a negative connotation.

So, Augie got a whoppin on Sat.  Shows that they are pretty lame outside the division!!!  
Hate to see them next week also.

Maybe Coach Barnes can show his lame side again this year and make the players remove AUGIE from their helmets.

Not to worry Coach - you still have the three way championship going for you.  Should make it again this year ;)

Go back to page 571 or so from last year, just before the Wheaton/MUC game.  Ric from Mount Union asked about the name change in preparation for the game.  It has been discussed a few times.  Rather than type it all out again... just start here:
