Keep in mind, Purtill was suspended for this game and is not calling the plays today.

Between the MC and SNC games......The conference is completely up for grabs this year!

Alex tanney injured, been out since early in the game. Scots trailing 17-8 in the 3rd. Freshmen MC qb trying to find his way.

SNC moves the ball all the way down to the 12-yard-line...

On 4th down, SNC kicks field goal. Tied 31-31 with :53.4 left in the game.

SNC missed a FG early, Beloit got deep but didn't score... whoever loses will be gnashing at lost opportunities...

Beloit drives down the field (a bit too easily, IMO), gets down to the 6 yard line... field goal try on third down - GOOD. 34-31 with :06.1 left.

After squib kic, SNC got ball at 50yrd line with :04.9. ..batted down at goal line.

Bucs get first win against SNC in a dozen years.

Time to worry about the SNC defense. I wasn't as worried last week, given the quality of the Tommies. But the Bucs just picked apart SNC on the pasing game.

Oh, and a nice job by the Beloit announcers.

Crazy day, holy cow.

Ripon is up 63-20 late in the 4th

That was a long 6.1 seconds. I had Monmouth-Wartburg flash backs.

Redmen09 · September 11, 2010, 05:08:13 PM

Grinnell 17 Monmouth 15. Final Score.

Moncolfan · September 11, 2010, 05:12:39 PM

Not only that but Looks like tanney is out for the season. Give grin ell credit they really played well and are much improved.

gbpuckfan · September 11, 2010, 05:12:57 PM

Lawrence beats the Knox Siwash 33-12.

When was the last time LU was looking down on SNC in the standings?

ps, yes, I know they are the Prairie Fire now. They weren't when I was in school... old habits die hard...

gbpuckfan · September 11, 2010, 05:17:35 PM

Final

Ripon 64
Lake Forest 19

gbpuckfan · September 11, 2010, 05:19:28 PM

Final

Carroll 34
Illinois College 20

gbpuckfan · September 11, 2010, 05:21:44 PM

So, standings would be:

Lawrence 1-0
Grinnell 1-0
Ripon 1-0
Beloit 1-0
Carroll 1-0
Knox 0-1
Lake Forest 0-1
Illinois 0-1
St. Norbert 0-1
Monmouth 0-1

What was that thing about the last shall be first and first shall be last???

Why is this?

Holy haggus!!!

I feel like I'm in a time warp, and I think I'm gonna be sick from such a sudden collapse of mc as a football power in this conference. With tanney - embarrassed by wartburg. Without him they can't find a way to squeeze one out against grinnell at home. The whole program must have problems, in 2006 they still dominated the lowly teams wout a tanney at qb.

And looks like snc is still lookin for answers too
