New SNC mascot, Sir Norbert.

The name is a bit redundant, IMO, but we've never had a mascot.

I get it wrong every now and then. The next question is can Ripon run the table and get a home game in the playoffs ??

Not if they play like they did today.  The good news is they can have an off day and still get the W.  I know the coaching staff will take care of the tweeks and they'll be ready...

Carroll is a good team so I would consider todays effort a nice performance.

[Kilts and Bagpipes]

Not much out of you Blu?

Hey...i think the game would have been much different if it wouldn't have been raining.  The passing game for IC was pretty much shut down by the weather

Monmouth just made less mistakes with the weather.  ICs offense couldn't do anything today.  Only 3 points.  Congrats to the scots on a well played game.  The offense looked good and the defense did their job.  The o-line dominated the line of scrimmage and the recievers caught balls in tough conditions.  Get a big one next weekend and go to Ripon with some momentum.

k and b...I think I may know more of the story. I only have 4 things to say....

U.C.L.A.

blu must be feeling blu-er than blu today...we've all had our share of those, right k and b?

I agree that Carroll is a VERY good team.  All I am saying is that Ripon did not play as well as they are capable of.  Which means that even at a level 7 out of 10, they can get it done.  They are going to have the rest of the conference gunning for them now, which is a great position to be in, so they will need to play at a level 9 or 10.

Now I understand the saying "when on the road go for the win, when at home go for the tie", but for Carroll to not kick the field goal to attempt a 2nd OT is beyond me.  NOW, I don't know how good of a kicker they have, which might have played a role in the decision to go for it on 4th and 6.  Any insite on that Roop?

Perhaps. And doubtful.

I was not in hiding...  Though I can't say I'm gonna do much chest pounding today.  It was a bad day in Blulandia, and Orangelandia.  When I'm in Austin at the game with 101K fans in the stands, electronic communication is very limited.  I got texts from some friends in the stands @ MC, and much like what I was watching, there wasn't much to cheer about. 

Congrats to the Scotts!  Moncol, I won our bet (for whatever it was), but I ain't much interested in collecting.  My report from the fans in the stands were that we threw (5) picks.  I believe another was dropped and one was take back.  Ouch!  Hard to win any game with that many TO's.  The only other report I got was from my son.  All he would say is that we could have played better.  Whether he's playing or not, losing is tough on him.  Oh, and he did say it was like 50 degrees and raining.  Who the hell can be expected to play in that kinda crap???

The Horns game was just as brutal.  Somedays, the football Gods just give you the finger.  The good news is, as all have been waiting to hear, the mighty Klien Freshman Broncos improved to 4-0 with a sound 33-19 victory over the rival Klein Oilers.  So rest easy fellas.

Your son is not in Texas anymore.  By week 9 or 10, that will seem like a summer day!
