BTW, the Trin gameday crew is doing a great job with the commentary!  

Let's go to overtime!

NO **** IN THE COOP!

Seriously.  Trinity on pace to set the NESCAC record for pulling games out of its ass ... maybe they should just run the whole game in the hurry-up offense ...

Midd mounting a comeback against the Ephs, down 13 in the 4th but near the Williams end zone -- helped by Ephs going conservative on offense, as well as a fumble at the Midd goal line by the Ephs ... McKillop's arm is gonna fall off after this game, already thrown 59 times with a lot of football left to play.  

Midd punches it in -- down to a six point game.  Ephs have to be getting nervous ... this game should be over but the missed extra point, missed short fg, and goal line fumble could prove costly unless the Ephs get their offense back on track, b/c McKillop can not be stopped in the second half ...

Things are getting interesting in Williamstown....Williams 44, Middlebury 38 with 6:29 to play.

Final: Amherst 23, Colby 2

[nescac1]

Williams' defense has to be exhausted -- Midd has run nearly 100 plays, and the Ephs are VERY thin on D, with two projected starters on the front seven injured from a very thin unit to begin with ... offense has to step up (strange to say when they've scored 44 points already ...).

  "Trinity on pace to set the NESCAC record for pulling games out of its @ss ... maybe they should just run the whole game in the hurry-up offense ..."

I would have to disagree.  They have shot themselves in the foot too many times today and did a great job of coming back (even after the controversial fumble).

The Hamilton game was hard earned, as well.  

Pulling it out of your @ss is getting lucky...I think that Trinity is earning their points.

That was quick -- TD Williams, Morrissey run.  Another huge pass to Caro, who is well over 200 yards receiving on the day ...

Tufts strikes first but fumbled XP could be the difference

[JustAFan]

Final:  Hamilton 28, Bowdoin 17

NO @@@@ IN THE COOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TRINITY 28
TUFTS 27

1OT

GREAT GAME!

[MulesBallgame]

What an ending in hartford, McGrath's insane scramble and throw for a TD and the XP wins it wow......game of the year?

[nescac1]

Midd comes right back with another TD ... another missed xp by Ephs makes it a five point game with a little under two minutes left.  Midd has all three time outs so the Ephs will need at least one first down to put it away ... craziness.  

[JustAFan]

Middlebury scores with 1:41 left to shrink Williams lead to 50-45. Middlebury has all 3 timeouts left.

[JustAFan]

Williams rushes Morrissey 3 straight times for 1 yard each time, Middlebury uses its 3 timeouts and gets the ball back on its 18 with 1:20 left. Does McKillop have some of McGrath's magic left?

[nescac1]

Interception by Batty seals it for the Ephs as they breathe a HUGE sigh of relief.  McKillop with 73 pass attempts, that must be some kind of league record, at least for a non-OT game ... what a shoot-out.  Ephs took their foot off the gas and it almost cost them ...
