Videocast:  By popular request, a live video broadcast stream is being been made available free of charge...the subscription fee normally charged during the regular season is being waived...the videocast features rooftop and sideline camera angles, as well as instant replay...it also includes the live audio of the Linfield radio broadcast.

One question...

How big is the Linfield server for all of the D3 fans that will be watching the only game in D3 by that time of the day?

Only UWW-IWU  and Tommies vs Coe are in the Central Time Zone.

Go CATS Go!

'Cats, prepare for one hell of a game -- these guys are good -- very quick, and very well coached.

I don't know how much, if any, the coaching staff has changed but the one thing that stood out above all else from playing UMHB the first time was their ability to make adjustments (at least their defense did). I can remember them changing their game plan,  going through 3 or 4 significant  changes throughout the course of that game. It took us most of the third quarter and 1/2 the 4th to make our adjustments (we happen to implement the last one on Jenkin's TD catch). I would expect nothing but the same this time around, which will be hard for most of us to track. But if you see our offense stalling for more than 2 possessions, you can bet UMHB adjusted their schemes and we haven't countered yet.

Not coincidentally, UW Whitewater was the best team at this that I ever played against.

It's ONLY Tuesday

However, I went to see "Blindside" last night.  Not an on the "edge of your seat" drama, but it is a true story that everyone can walk away from feeling good about and will inspire many to similar action.

Prediction
No turnovers on Saturday for Cats equals solid win over a tough UMBH by +7......

I know this is a bit belated, but in the category of better late than never...

I was hoping for a different outcome, but wanted to extend congratulations to the Wildcats on their first round win over the Kingsmen.  I didn't make the trip, but I've talked to a few folks who did, and they came away extremely impressed with the Cats.  

Sounds like the OxyBob.com forecast was correct - Cal Lu was more of a game control team this year, and when they got down big early it was too much to overcome.  I am looking forward to the rematch next September down here in Thousand Oaks - I'll guarantee a gay day temp between 75-108.  

Good luck to the Cats the rest of the way, we'll be pulling for our west coast brethren, hopefully for several weeks to come!

fixed--summer doesn't end till November down here

Don't know MC...here in Rancho Cucamonga Thursday forecast 81 degrees..sure wish summer would end so we could get into the low 70's

what up NWC football fans? well looks like all is well in DIII. the cats are on the hunt and salem is just a few wins away. congrats to the 'cats. i was getting worried we were looking average for a little while. But the D steps it up this year and we are in the playoffs.

one thing: looks like purple is the color of football royalty. lots of purple in the play-offs.

Hello to all the OG posters here on DIII.com. keep up the good work.

A GREAT BIG THANK YOU!!!

To the good folks who managed to convince the powers-to-be to give us free video.... This Cat is for YOU!!!

CATS SHINE IN 09

Ditto -- thanks for making this work! Good luck to both teams this weekend....

Come on, Dutchie.
You know you want the 'Cats to win.

Nice job by the college to make the feed free. That's a good use for our donations.

[DuffMan]

Sorry, I've been away.  Has Saturday's win by Linfield been phoned in yet, or can I do the honors??? 

[Wildcat'64]

Thanks to the Linfield Athletic Department  for the free feed of this weekends game.  My contribution to the Top Cat Club is now due an increase to help cover the cost.  Wish I could be at the game but my computer screen will now be a second best alternative!

GO CATS>>>LEAVE NO DOUBT

[Pat Coleman]

The NCAA doesn't allow pay-per-view feeds of playoff games, so it had to be free or nothing.

[Gig Harbor Cat]

Duff,

Get er done.  You have the honors here

Good point.  I hope Linfield has thought this through otherwise it could end up that noone is happy.
