FB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[Mugsy]

Wheaton takes the opening drive 65 yards, but stalls after a first and goal from Wabash 6.  Wheaton FG makes it 31-14.

Gingg at 88 yards on 13 carries.

Fanthorpe tucks and runs on a 3rd and 12, only gets 6 yds. Fanthorpe limping after the play, hopefully he's ok.

Franklin forces the punt, will have 1st and 10 from the 27.

This game is now a defensive battle?

This game is now a defensive battle?

That is the way the Otterbein/Franklin game was until the 3rd quarter, then came the offensive explosion.

[Mugsy]

Pass interference call against Ittersagen keeps Wabash drive alive, but Wabash turns it over on downs at the Wheaton 36.  More good pressure by the Wheaton d.

[robertgoulet]

NCC forces the punt. There will be no more scoring today.  

3rd and 14, Franklin with the quick kick again. NCC returns it out to the 28.

Fanthorpe is still in the game, but is limping.

[Mugsy]

Holding penality against Wheaton negates another first down pass.

[robertgoulet]

Big face mask penalty against Wabash has Wheaton down to the Wabash 30.

[robertgoulet]

Kniss sacked on 3rd and 4, North Central to punt.

Norris to Ellis for 30 yards.  Wheaton up 38-14!

[robertgoulet]

Franklin driving, they're out to mid-field with about 6 minutes left in the 2nd.

[robertgoulet]

Snap gets past Rupp, but he gets a pass off (incomplete), instead of a 3rd and 20+ Franklin will have a 3rd and 8 near midfield.

[robertgoulet]

North Central D holds on 3rd down. Franklin punts. North Central will have the ball at their 23.

5:54 left in the 2nd.


I forgot to celebrate my 300th post....so here is happy 302 to me! Ha!

[robertgoulet]

Kniss throws an INT on 3rd and 10. Franklin picks up a late hit on the play and will lose 15 yds, they will have the ball near their own 44. Big mistake by Kniss.

[Mugsy]

Personal foul on Wheaton allows Wabash to drive to Wheaton 39, but Wabash turns it over on downs again.  Great job by Wheaton defense to hold.

Wheaton has done great job thus far on Hudson - he is 10 of 25 for 117 yards.

Wheaton still leading 38-14 with 4:13 left in 3rd quarter.
