FB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[Titan Q]

Final...

IWU 35
Carthage 31

Kraig Ladd fumbled on a keeper play at about the Carthage 30 with 1:30 to play...it sounds like he had 1st down yardage on the play as he lost the ball.  IWU could have run out the clock at that point. 

The Titan defense came through though.  After giving up a 1st down on a 4th & 3, they stopped the Red Men on the next set of downs.

Big, big win for the 2007 Titans and the program.

IWU is going to win this game but their special teams coach should be fired. I have never seen so many continued blunders. That won't work against naperville, wheaton and augie.

agree, big win for IWU. they will be a force in this race.

Milikin over NPU - final 34-7.  The game was over at halftime 27-7.

NPU:
- Shelby Wood completed 25 of his 39 passes for 255 yards (three INTs)
- Kelvyn West finished with 108 yards on 32 carries
- Chris Durr caught 14 passes for 112 yards.

Shelby, Kelvyn and Chris are all sophomores.  If they ever have a defense behind them, they might be able to win a game.

NC TD 17-0 just before half.

Augie's running game is back on track - 77 attempts for 470 yards.  Only two pass attempts for 13 yards.

Elmhurst's last man standing, free safety Kyle Maple had a busy day - 26 total tackles (17 solo).

2 halves to a football game.  Nobody celebrating anything yet here.  Cardinals playing well enough. 

[CardinalAlum]

NCC offensive line playing well.  Driving to start the 2nd half.

[CardinalAlum]

Drive stalled by NCC, Wheaton now driving.

[CardinalAlum]

Wheaton does the best job of any coaching staff in the CCIW at halftime adjustments.  Let's see what happens.
