PC....when is your birthday?

Come to McMinnville next weekend and I'll give you a large, sports size umbrella.

Dec. 20, day of the Stagg Bowl.

Pat....I was wondering how you think PLU compared to some of the other top echelon teams in the WIAC.....just wondering?

[wildcat11]

Good job Cats....next up arch rival PLU!  Should be a great game.

Looking forward to a good game but I thought we looked sloppy today.

A win is a win. But, I understand where you come from.

d3mafan,

For clarification, I was speaking of the PLU win over Eau Claire.  But yes, a win is a win. 

The Linfield guys on the board are talking of next weeks game vs PLU being a good one.  Granted, scores are not everything but the way the season has started, as a Lute fan I'm concerned that Linfield is extremely good and my alma mater may not be up to the task.  I know we've improved the last few years and I'm hoping we are up to the task.

Yeah, I saw a lot of tired legs today that didn't have the same explosiveness that I saw vs Cal Lutheran.  Oh well...you know you're a damn good program when a 45-0 win didn't feel completely satisfying.

.... I hope they are rested up for next week!   

[D O.C.]

Many will be ready and willing, bluenote, they will play.

It's official.  Willamette is the recognized "undercat" against East Tejas.   Willamette definitely has its work cut out to make it a game against the Tigers and their potent offense.

"They'll be on your radar.
Ryan's take: East Texas Baptist. If you read this week's Around the South column, you know that ETBU has been lighting things up through the air, with a nation-leading 435.5 yards per game passing. However, the opponents from the Tigers' first two games are currently winless. Not so with Saturday's opponent, Willamette. The Bearcats gave up a lot of points in their wins, so ETBU (which posted 50-plus in its two outings) might be able to run away with this one. Let's just see which quarterback they use most."

Go Bearcats!

Script, flipped.

11 was spot on: the strength of this team is its pass defense.  What really threw me for a loop was the 330 yards rushing against 142 passing.  That's old-school Willamette offense!

[D O.C.]

Come on, scribe. It's + and impressive.

Hey Doc,   

It's hard to say things were disappointing when you win by 45-0 BUT,    WC11 is right ..  It was very sloppy...    On the O side of the ball...  Dropped balls, missed blocked,  bad snaps,  wounded Ducks, you name it I think the boys did it...   (And still put up 45)

The BIG D stuck it to CWRU....  Good JOB Boys...

.
And to top it off We watched the Scoring Machine of MT.U  put up 84 last night..   They will  get my vote in the fan poll this week..

So onto the NO LUTES  Boys.. get ready Cats....

Go Cats
Go BIG D

[bluenote]

....PLU runs a lot of "TRICK PLAYS" .....just sayin'   

[D O.C.]

We know how you feel about trick plays.

Shoulda beat Oshkosh.

[D O.C.]

"Just the facts, ma'am."

No. We're not discussing the gimp we watched on the very good Case Western feed.
