South Region playoffs

[Matt Barnhart (kid)]

I was a part of Bridgewater's hosting meeting last Monday, and it was Bridgewater that set the "no re-entry" rule, not the NCAA.

Kid-

Why did BC go w/ the no reentry?

That's information I'm probably privy to and need to keep within the meeting.

  Wesley also had the no reentry rule. But those fans were told it was the NCAA that mandated it.  You would think they could come up with a stamping system to let people out at half time
   BUT I also noticed that there has been a crackdown on students and fans who seemed to be under the influence. I guess that comes with the bigger crowds unfotunatly

OK ... a week after facing off against the dimunitive Trinity OL/DL, UMHB will have a different challenge this week.  Last week's starting lines for Wesley:

DL: 6'5", 255; 6'2, 327; 6'3", 238; 6'3, 287:  avg. 6'4", 277

Wesley has made 31 sacks and allowed 10 (UMHB:  43, 14)
Suffered 10 interceptions and forced 10 (UMHB: 7, 18)

Fair enough!  I assumed it had something to do with security, but I couldn't figure in what way...

The same thing was present at Thiel-Hopkins.  A sign at the gate which indicated no re-entry.  We all assumed that it was an NCAA mandate since we know that the NCAA has strict rules about their playoff games, and why else would there be a change from all of the rest of the home games?

Any word on who will start for UMHB at QB? Welch or Padron? I noticed that Welch is still listed as the starter on their two-deep from their website, but heard that he is injured.
I've read that both are quite capable, but an interested how a change affects the Cru offense.

alright, i'll give this another shot - missed the w&j/b'water game and the tu/umhb game last week, so maybe i can make up for those poor picks this week

b'water 24 - thiel 17 - i had picked w&j to win here, and b'water messed that up...just a hunch that maybe i haven't been giving the eagles and the odac enough credit - playoff experience, a balanced offense, playmakers at the rb position and a defense that stiffened in it's biggest test of the season last week have me leaning toward the boys from b'water

umhb 31 - wesley 30 - reading bfb's comparison's ALMOST swayed me toward wesley, and i am rooting a bit for the wolverines since the monarchs used to play them in the early days of the acfc....this game could really go either way and i'm now officially changing my pick within this post...wesley 31 - umhb 30 in a second round upset

Word from the front office is that, while Welsh will be evaluated during the week, he is planning to play and there is no change in the depth chart at this time.

AKA "the NCAA tries to make up for years of snubbing UMHB."** 

OK, guys, just win on Saturday.

** - yes, I know that's not really the case.  Really.

Spliskin,

Presley is definetly the first King!


Lebron is generation Y KING!


What are the odds that Thiel can get an exception for an extra home game?  Can Thiel file first timers on their Papework! jk
