Roop,

In the words of President Regan, "There you Go Again"

Can't you ever get anything straight?

It's Chad Braun, the defensive coordinator and MC's men's tennis and strength and conditioning coach. The first assistant coach named by Monmouth's head football coach, Steve Bell, 12 years ago.

Please try to get things correct in the future.

I thinks Branns defense is going to be in for a long day and hopefully MC's D will be improved.

grboob,

You quote the greatest President in American History and then can't spell his name right. Then you question the RoopVegas line. What is your name again

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOUR NAME IS....................

Lake Forest up 28-17 at Half against Lawrence. Lake Forest is in control so far with 300 plus yard of offense and Lawrence around 170.

Attn: Monmouth announcer. Turn your mic off during half time. You're broadcasting some inappropriate content.

Monmouth takes the inaugural Trademark Bowl 63-41; covering the spread as predicted. 41 should normally be enough but you have to tackle Yocum every now and then.

SNC beats Grinnell 30-28

grboob · October 22, 2011, 05:59:03 PM

So the Scots win by 22 points (63-41) today.

Beloit averaged about 20 ppg coming in to this game.

Scots averaging 63 ppg after the Beloit win.

So we have the Scots at 7-1 and ranked about #27 in the DIII national poll for week 7 (last Sunday).

So here my question. I request an indepth analysis from anyone out there in cyperspace.

What has gone wrong with the Scot defense since the St Norbert (gave up 3 pts )and the Ripon game (gave up 17 pts?

Indepth analysis appreciated. This has made my stomach ache!

The Roop · October 22, 2011, 06:20:26 PM

I don't remember the player names but Monmouth was shorthanded on defense today. Whether it was precautionary or necessary, I don't know. I suspect once the celebrating of ending Beloits 1 year dominance in the series that we will hear more. Your turn scottie.......................

A scottie-source (trademark pending) used the terms "defense" and "seventh-string" in the same sentence. While that may be a bit of an exaggeration, it appears the defensive unit might be a little banged up.

With that said, I am curious how Beloit is just a one-win team thus far. My only guess is that the teams are getting sufficiently amped up to play the Bucs....and deservedly so.

A big shout-out to the FS13 B&B for another restful and beverage-induced night's sleep.

Lake Forest played well in thier win against Lawrence, 56-38.

My hat's off to the Lawrence announcers on the webcast. They were VERY good!

scottie · October 24, 2011, 10:29:33 AM

Looking at the MWC results from the weekend, it appears there was a general defense-optional attitude with an average of 72.2 combined points per game. Carroll was the only squad to hold their opponent below 4 touchdowns (8 pts.)....but they played Knox On The Demise, so no real surprise there.

For those keeping track, Tanney is now within 1 touchdown of the career TD mark and still on pace for the career yardage mark.

A "beverage-induced night's sleep"...that FS13 sure does know how to be a hospitable guy.

And I don't know about you scottie, but I sure didn't see players from either side tip-toeing out of bounds during Saturday's game. I just thought fulbakdad would like to know since he seemed to think there were a bunch of Fighting Scots doing that up at Lake Forest during last weekend's game.
