FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[PurpleReign]

No he has the karma because he acts like an adult (sort of) and is not a knucklehead.

Yeah Mount plays nobody ever.  Let's see how stupid that really is

Plays in the number 2 conference in the country.
Has played in 1617 now as of next friday national championship game out of the last 20.  Winning 10 of 16 soon to be 11 of 17. 
Losing one regular season game in 17/18 years.  (BTW those other OIAC schools that have made the playoffs during this time have performed pretty weell until they had to play the machine for a second time.
Beating the daylights out of most teams in the playoffs all this time with an average margin of win more than a monkey stomp and in a few years will have 100 playoff wins at the current rate.
Playing anyone who is willing to play them in the one non conference game. (how did we get stuck with Bethany)
With a coach that averages 14 games a year and less than 1 loss per year for 27 years.

Yeah they play nobody.  And Mineestoa football is great at all levels?  They might be able to beat Ohio football in pee wees but nowhere else.

Sorry mom, but nobody wins at that level unless the competition in their conference and their side of the bracket is weak at best.  Again put Mount in the MIAC or the WIAC and then they will know competition.

Mount hasn't beaten an MIAC team in the Stagg for 12 years.

They haven't had too??? Ya gotta get there first. At least we have been there 15 of the last 17 years.

union has been there so often because you are the best of the lousy.  Who else is there over there?  MHB?  Sorry, but MHB is Texas and that is hardly east football.  Maybe we should ask Terrelle Pryor and Maurice Clarett and see what they think about the situation.

Good Purple you must have looked at a map to know that.

No maybe you should ask one of the Golden Gophers...they know way more about football.

[Brian Carroll]

Good luck to the Tommies. I hope you win the trophy this week.

When the Tommies win on Friday we all need to agree that the union is a paper tiger.  East football sucks at the high school level, the D1 level, the DII level and the DIII level.  Put the unioners in the MIAC or the WIAC and you maybe make the Stagg bowl once ever 10 years at best.  Tommies might suck, but east region football is pathetic.

And so it goes.....PurpleReign the least you could do if you are going to try and make a point is know a little about what you are talking about. It's "MOUNT" UNION  not union and we are in the NORTH region where I suppose you think their football must also suck at the high school, D1, DII, and DIII level too. Put Mount Union in the MIAC or WIAC and I am fairly sure the results would be the same. Ya see it is not the region you are in it is the Coach that you have. Let me think back a little bit say...2000-2007 when the Tommies had a great football mind in charge. How did that work out for you?  (Did St Thomas suddenly move into a region where they could finally play some easy teams and win a few games?

Remember the OAC is the second ranked conference in the country just below the WIAC and above the MIAC. We have our Hamelines, Augies, Oles, Carletons and such but put BW, ONU, Heidelberg and now even John Carroll out there and you have a pretty strong comparrison with the MIAC. Remember we also play good teams for our one open date a year...maybe you have heard of some of them. UWO, Franklin, ST John Fisher(a real east team) all playoff teams this year and UWW. We need a game at the begining of the year maybe you could give LK a call and schedule the Tiger.

And in closing and always The Tommies SUCK!

You sounded very well informed and intelligent, but then with your last sentence you had to go all union.

Purple why don't you give one of your "competition" teams like Bethel a call about the Tiger. They come from the mighty MIAC I think? 

And as always and forever The Tommies still SUCK! Sorry you just can't help it.

Thanks. I do too. And always the Stiftungfestivities.
I miss Minnesota and all you guys.
I will be back hopefully next season at least for a game or two.

Auggie and ole are even or better than bw, onu or John Carroll.  Fisher is classless and overrated.

Your NFL is terrible, your FBS cheats, your FCS power Youngstown gets crushed by NDSU (full of MN players), D-2 would be crushed by Duluth or Mankato.  Pee wee schwee mee.

See what we live with here? I've been giving good luck call outs to the Tommies every week but PR just helped me overcome the last bit of my Minnesota Nice that obligated I give UST that polite encouragement.

As much as I would like (primarily due to petty jealousy) to see Mount lose, I'm cheering for the Raiders this weekend. In a devastating double monkey stomp. I don't think there will be a stomp out but I'm pretty sure we'll see a stomp. Maybe a double.

[Pat Coleman]

Why would you guys even bother to engage with PurpleReign? Come on, you should know better.

[218Tommie]

Oz,
Can't even be Minnesota Nice to a fellow person from the GR? Granted, I kinda went to the 'other' high school that was green and white, and then went to a certain 'other' university, so I can see how there's no Minnesota Nice coming this way.

Purple and AO fight it out for the most outlandish (and perhaps dumb) statements of this page

[Walter Eagle]

Purple Reign is in no ways representative of the rest of the UST following.  If you don't respect a team like Mount Union you're a fool.  PR, you speak only for your idiotic self.

I'm just surprised you'd still be posting.  Being from the East, I'm sure you were shocked to find out there are more than 3 rounds in the d3 playoffs.

[2115 Summit]

Okay- my brother and I will be on the UST charter flight (Salem bound!)....    Any Johnnies, Warhawks, or Purple Raiders that can recommend some good local establishments to enjoy a few beverages?

Also, is there anything that's a must see we should add to our list of to do's for this trip?
