FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[Kilted Rat]

I suppose back-to-back Saturday trips to Minnesota are out of the question?
We could send Ritz down to pick you up.

If I didn't have two exams on Monday and one this friday, it would be tempting!


How did the hunt go? As successful as the MonkeyStomping?

Catdaddy,

Any and all of them could knock off your overrated kitties in the big dance.   


But most likely it will be the Big Red Machine on December 3rd to run the record to 0-4 and the OAS Pickem to 0-8...

Fins,

Will you have the hot tub permanently affixed to the roof of the Pace Arrow when the tailgating begins on Wednesday?

The hot tub would be nice. I am considering a shift from kool-aid to hot chocolate, though.

Over rated?? Where exactly do you rate the Cats? I wonder where you would have put them if YOU had been on the selection committee? Have  the polls from D3 and the coaches Poll been wrong all year?

The Tommies got killed way worse than any deer did. Until late last night, it's been so warm, the deer have been more concerned with grazing on clover than rutting up some does.
So, didn't even see one, but did enjoy the voicemail game updates as I tromped around the woods.

At least I might get to wear the cold weather gear for a game now.

AZCAT:
Never, EVER, doubt the great football mind of Bus Driver. If Bus Driver says it, it must be so.
Your only decision now appears to be to decide which week to go down.

Then pull yours out and walk with confidence.

Zip,

8 a.m. sounds great to me.  For the Oles we arrived at 9 for the 1 p.m. start so 8 makes sense.  The Bus was even there by 9:15 or so. 

Fins,

How many gallons of hot chocolate are you going to bring?  You may as well get one of those 80 cup percolators filled with a wonderful concoction and hook it up to a generator.  That would keep us going for at least an hour or so.  What time is the Pace Arrow due to arrive?

Don't you love this time of year? 

GO JOHNNIES!!!

I was looking at the brackets and noticed that Linfield was 8-0. A nice record but why do the Cats only play an 8 game season? It is unlikely that they would have lost, but I think the fact they only played 8 games needs to be taken into account in the seeding process. Hell look that the Vikes, no one gave them a chance against the Giants.... That be being said, Linfield is the defending Champs and they have not lost in the last two seasons. Should would be nice to see another SJU victory in OR.

Second, why does the Wisconsin Conference get all this hype? The conference playoff record is 3-7. How can Whitewater be seeded higher than SJU? The last time Whitewater played SJU was in 2002 and SJU won. The MIAC is 17-8 in the playoffs and that is with several one and dones by Bethel.

Any comments........

Johnnie Esq, thanks to you, your father and everyone else who helped with the "Tommies Suck" Stiftungsfestivities Saturday. Great turn out and nice to see the sea of red when entering the stadium. We even had a few of the Tommie football recruits join us! Knights, thanks for the pass into the game.

Now on to the game with Monmouth. Stiftungsfestivities will begin at 8:00 a.m. We will probably be starting the grills up around 9:30. Bring a culinary delight to share. SJU56321, bring something special from the Windy City. Ms. 1500 will be making a guest appearance at the tailgate party. Monmouth fans are cordially invited to the party.

SJUQB, West coast teams struggle to find games except against one another.  The cost of getting to McMinnville, OR for a regular season is prohibitive, considering a loss will put you in jeopardy of a playoff birth.  So nobody wants/can afford to play against the West coast teams.

There is a fair amount of parity within the WIAC-- it seems that every year the last place team will beat the front runner in the last three weeks of the season, throwing the WIAC race into a tizzy.  UWW ran the table, which is the first time that has happened in some time in the WIAC.

But keep in mind the second place finisher in the WIAC was UWEC.  So I think we stand a good chance.

Dawg,

Thanks for the props.

I'd like to officially welcome you and all RPI'ers on to the Johnnie bandwagon.

We're pretty solid at smack talking, but no where near the level of you LL'ers, if all holds true and we face UWW next week, I think we might need all the reserves we can drum up!

Monmouth is yet to mount any kind of a charge aside from their playoff t-shirts.

ROR,
Thanks a million for the JOHNNIE/Tomcat photos.

They left no doubt that, when it comes to shotgunning, I am sticking to 12 or 20 gauge.
