Does anybody know if the game @ Whitewater will be on a video feed?

Whitewater has had their own feed every week during the playoffs, so they should have it again. Got to watch the first 5 minutes of it, and its very professional.

If the team pulls out one more I will SHAVE my mustache.

Last year (I think) Pat had something worked out with the NCAA and there were internet/video feeds of both Semi-Final games.  Pat if you are out there, is there anything worked out for this year?

[Pat Coleman]

Theoretically, yes. I don't think I'll have final word for a couple days, though.

What a game! The Tommies are an excellent team and Wartman and Waldvogel are studs. You never knew when one of them was going to break loose for a long run. The Tommies also put more pressure on Boehme than he's been used to. For as big as they are, they're pretty speedy.

RedandPurple,
No mac salad and rice, but there was a ton of outstanding tailgate food today. I had my fill of smoked salmon, clam chowder, chicken, shrimp and all sorts of other good food. The usual suspects were there and in a festive mood.

PPJ, your boy was smokin' today! Great win, guys, and a super game for the fans. What a day for the Wildcats. Now on to Whitewater!

Congratulations to UST on your season.

Will the schools be doing the broadcast then, or will you do it?

That's the part I do not know.

My goodness...did GHC spray everybody?  

[Pat Coleman]

We'll be there regardless -- just don't know whether we'll be part of the official NCAA video broadcast or on audio only.

Pat...I hope you are on the audio at least because I thought you did a great job at Oxy/Linfield in that first half down there. I was a little disappointed when you didn't do the second half...but you were just filling in, so I understood.

He said he had his chowder and.... well, you know, before most of the people got there.

Man,  I am still so amped up about the game. What a perfect day.

I'm right with you coco...I think you've started a tradition with the Hawaiian Hula Leaves. Do you think we could get dutchfan1 out here to do the hula?

[wildcat11]

The 2009 'Cats are 12-0.  Only four other Linfield teams have matched that record...1982, 1984, 1986, and 2004 (13-0).  Incredible job 'Cats.  Why not make this 13-0 next week?

I was very impressed with STU. They were really a solid bunch. Very large also. Linfield was out of sinc on offense but our defense played a solid game and kept STU in check.

chewey from SJU tried to pull the wool over our eyes and make it sound like STU wasn't that good but they were a very good team. They didn't have the talent at the skill positions like Cal Luth and UMHB did but they were better on defense and had a better O-line than either of those teams IMHO.

Their pass rush/blitz was frustrating to us and Boehme got sacked more times than I would like. That is good though because now we know we must attack with shorter time frames which is not a bad thing. STU is very good with rush defense. But out guys got good yardage and ground it out....no long runs but at least we kept them honest.

Overall just a great game at the CatDome and it was great to see a very large STU crowd on hand also. They were very vocal and really cheered their team on. They never gave up the whole game.

I never said they are a bad team.  I said that they are a good team but I think Linfield is a better one.  They're big and they're good at the skill positions but Linfield is/was more athletic all the way around.  I don't think I ever said it would be an easy game.  I did say that Linfield had too much for them and that Linfield would prevail.  STU has come a long way in the last couple of years so I do respect them but I do not think they are a Linfield.  

I think Linfield will meet its match next week at Perkins Stadium, though.  UWW gets all of those Madison/Milwaukee, Wisconsin kids and Chicago kids who aren't quite good enough for D1, so they are always pretty tough.  I am going to try and make the trip over there with Brice.  I would love to see this next game.  Unfortunately, I think Linfield will be next week what STU was today:  A very good team but not quite as good as UWW.  I hope I'm wrong as I'll be throwing in with the Linfield persuasion.  I hope it's Linfield vs. MUC in two weeks.
