FB: Midwest Conference

No.  Trash talk occurs between two opponents.  Since Mac won't play MIAC foes, there can be no trash talk between them.

Predicted order of finish for the MWC in 2013?

[scottie]

Not sure if I can rank all 22 MWC teams in order....     I can predict one team will finish near the top and one near the bottom, and both are located in western Illinois.

1) Replace "near" with "at" for both teams and I'd say you're spot on!
2) The MWC has expanded again and is now at 28 teams.

You guys are picking Lake Forest 5-6, just like last year.  Got you just where we want you!

Looking forward to this season!

Former Monmouth QB Mitch Tanney has been hired as Chicago Bears director of analytics

Fighting Scots are slowly but surely taking over the NFL.     His first analysis shows that QBs throw for much larger numbers when they hear bagpipes before the game.

So it is now officially football season since the Bruins lost to that team from the Midwest.  Please don't make me say where they are from!

I've been lucky to see some of the online films of new recruits coming into Lake Forest.  I am impressed with what I've seen.  The loss of some of the seniors from last year, especially at QB, happen to everyone, but only losing 1 starter from Defense is comforting. 

There are some studs incoming freshman coming in and I believe Mike Lewis (QB) is up for the task.  He was competing for the starting job two years ago so it's not like there's nobody in line to take over the O.

The coaching staff has gotten over 40 recruits.  This is pretty impressive for LFC and a sign that Coach Cat has the program going in the right direction!

How's the future look for everyone else?

What's so bad about saying 'that team 25(?) miles south of Lake Forest'?

[fulbakdad]

Perfect! Just don't make me say the name!

lol

It's okay. I'm sure there aren't any fans of "that team" who attend Lake Forest College.  Obviously, they are all Bruins fans.  You know, cuz fulbakdad says so.
