FB: Midwest Conference

[The Roop]

MWCfan787, hear you nothing that I say ?? If Whitewater and Wheaton become Pool Cs there's no way St. Norbert gets in. They need things to fall right as it is as Pool Cs are not determined on a regional level; but your scenario is dooming them.

[MWCfan787]

ok, so lets re-do this

Whitewater and Wheaton 10-0, Central 9-1 win the IIAC, someone win the MIAC at 9-1 with 2nd place being 8-2, Linfield win the NWC at 9-1 with 2nd place being 8-2, and someone win the SCIAC at 9-1 with 2nd place being 8-2.  2nd place in the WIAC could possibly be 8-2 as well.

Now are we looking at the best scenario for the MWC playoff picture?

[The Roop]

Now you're coming around.  The reality is we are at least two weeks away from knowing what is possible and what isn't. I like a 9-1 SNCs chances vs. some teams but not others.

Maverick,
With you on all picks except one. That Lawrence - Knox game. I say the fans win by kicking the coaches through the uprights!!! 

I'm glad you are leaving it up to the fans to do the kicking.  Because if you've seen the Knox kickers......

[SNCOLDAD]

You know, Beloit might want to send a scout to this game to recruit a strong leg. 

[The Roop]

Oh, speaking of Knox. Only Knox and Lawrence are mathematically eliminated from the MWC race so it's still wide open for the AQ bid.

[SNCOLDAD]

And yet it is still the Midwest Conference Game of the Week! 

I sure hope that the MWC has their Twitter working better than last week. I want the score from that game every quarter. Not just half and final. 

GO GREEN KNIGHTS

[The Roop]

How about if I order two games on MWCTV and send you texts ??

[scottie]

I have class until 2:00 on Saturday, so you might have to order three.   

[SNCOLDAD]

O yeah. What games Roop?  And you got message.

[MWCfan787]

conference got alotta references on triple take this week

[SNCOLDAD]

Well at least I don't feel like I am totally blowing smoke when I talk about a 2nd MWC team Might, Could, Maybe get a berth.

[Redmen09]

I think since Ripon isnt in "Scotties Three To Watch" is why they are going with a less of a "titan" of a non-conference opponent so that a 9-1 or 10-0? season can be locked up.  4 years in a row of a non-conference loss leaves Ripon having to win out the MWC, not easy.  Fun to speculate about the scenarios, but i am excited for the action tomorrow.  My picks:

LU -3 v KC -2  (Knox technically wins by -1 points)
SNC 17 v CU 10 (Carroll has to be pissed by now and they always play tough at home)
LFC 6 v GC 21 (two turnovers lead to two LFC field goals, LFC is under 125yds on offense)
BC 35 v IC 24 (IC continues to struggle on D, as Beloit locks up 4th place)
MC 35 v RC 38 (im hoping for as good of a game as last year just the scores reversed  )

overall good weekend again of football

[SNCOLDAD]

Redman09, I like your thinking on the Larry - Knix game. 

All kidding aside, they field a team. That is more than some schools.

[scottie]

So nice to be cited, Redmen09.     And you are right....if Ripon had won their non-conference game, they remain in "Scottie's Three to Watch" or what I am now changing the TM to "Scotties 3.2 Watch."  oooooh!

Good luck to all tomorrow, especially the Good Guys!
