Liger,

Like I said before, you need to be cheering someone to knock off UW-Whitewater or SJU.  I know it's a big "if" because there is much football to be played (especially in the WIAC) but if Oxy, Whitewater, and SJU all run the table during the regular season....Oxy could be looking at a 4 seed in the West Region.

Good Point RFB... .I know I am looking pretty far ahead and believe me when I say that OXY has a lot of respect for Redlands and will not take the game lightly.

Hey pat, will having a #4 seed really make a difference though? I mean like you said if we run the table, won't Linfield still be number #1 (presumably) and therefore the best OXy could hope for is 2 home play-off games ?

S.C.I.A.C fans,

I hope everyone had a good weekend at any football games that you attended.
So far so good to hear that teams did good. I was surprised to hear that U.L.V had a chance for a while against Redlands, but didn't get the job done. Hope, U.L.V bounces back.

Anyways, seems like the tigers have a week off. Which is good. But, i hope that everyone keeps in mind that this is not a week for oxy to just slack off. Believe me, when oxy has a bye week, they are working extra hard to prepare for the neek game. I know they will be busting their tails off and studying extra hard to prove to the league that they are contenders. These next two weeks will be vital for the tigers in order to get a win over a good Redlands team.  However, to all you Redlands fans, make sure you understand that these are the biggest  weeks that Oxy will dedicate in learninng how to dismantel Redlands.

This team will take it one week at a time, but, Redlands has been on their minds since yesterday and from now on.  Should be a fun week and a great time for the tigers to mentally and physically get ready for the Dawgs. Nows the time for the tigers to earn more their stripes.

Go Oxy...

What is the story with LaVerne?

I thought their win over UPS showed promise, but Redlands clearly handled them on Saturday.  I know the Bulldogs always get stronger as the year goes on, and their two losses were both against tough opponents - but I guess I expected the Leos to make it a much closer game.  Are they inconsistent - or is it a matter of Redlands exploiting their weaknesses?

I think it is just a matter of playing a stronger team in Redlands. The score should have been a lot higher, Redlands didn't play a great game. Redlands is getting stronger with every game but they will need to play close to a perfect game to beat Oxy. First they need to handle the Poets at Ted Runner this Saturday.

Liger,

Before we start talking about home filed advantage lets talk about Redlands/Oxy...if Redlands gets past PP this weekend its going to be a good one.  Its not like the game is going to be USC vs. University of San Diego.  Redlands could very easily be 3-1 right now...and if they had beaten Trinity you know they would be in the top 25......

Its going to be a war...and I am getting excited just thinking about it in my office!!!

Bo Bulldogs!

Seems like I remember someone posting about the very good D line of LaVerne, did they forget to show-up or did they just get their ticket punched by a better O line for Redlands.  Good job Redlands, glad to see the win, but 13-7 at half, was it a matter of half time adjustments?  Maynard is good at mixing things up. and I was glad to see Coleman start to be getting more throws.

Redlands was very well prepared for La Verne and it was evident as the defensive stopped a potent La Verne offense.  La Verne is a good team, however they did not play to their potential against Redlands and it resulted in their dismay. 

Oxy is good, but as everyone has previously posted, they best team they have played is Cal Lu, who is good, but CC and L&C are mediocre at best.  It will be interesting to see the Oxy/Redlands game and the Oxy/La Verne game, Oxy must prepare better than they did for Whittier.  Redlands has played the toughest schedule in the SCIAC.

Cal Lu/La Verne should be a good one this week.  Homecoming for La Verne.

Whats the word on the other SCIAC schools (Claremont, Whittier, PP)?

The D line is good.  The Redlands O-line wasn't that much better.  The D got tired due to the ineptitude of ULV's O.  Maybe Redlands D was tough.  Maybe injuries slowed down some key players on O.  No excuses though.  Redlands was prepared and they executed where La Verne didn't.  The O probably went three and out 80 percent of the second half.  I don't think its a coincidence that while this was happening the Redlands O started to grind on the ground.  Good for them.  The seasons not over though.  Redlands still has to beat 5 other SCIAC teams before they're the champs.  I don't think that's going to happen.  ULV played a bad game.  Hopefully it wakes them up for the rest of the season.  CalLu's up next and they better look out for an angry bunch of guys who are ready to make people forget about last week.
Hail to the Orange!!!

Liger,

Did you see the AFCA top 25 this week?   Three West Region Teams are head of the #8 Oxy Tigers.  Better be pulling for the Cobbers and Eagles this weekend.

LigerLover

there is nothing more than i would love than to send OXY back to horse**** north dakota in that loud little arena and give the cobbers another slap in the mouth. I hope that the cobbers knock off the johnies and that OXY faces them in the play-offs again. As for the johnies....I'd imagine that the cobbers will beat them and knock them out of the top 5. I think St Johns will be exposed for what they truely are this weekend...a team that  thinks they are good for beating teams with 2-3 records. I dont care how good the teams were that those 2-3 teams lost to...good teams find a way to win and the rest are just ****ing losers...period.

and as for you wildcat 11... while I must say you have the more intellegance than most of the people in the SCIAC discussion board the fact still remains that you should go back to your NWC page and butt out of SCIAC affairs. So take your won advice and jailbreak the hell out of here you washed up old fart.
