FB: Midwest Conference

[scots fan]

 with the good guys remaining schedule i have to agree with pc 7 tops 8 more likely with an upset. The good guys wont move up until the playoffs and they beat one of those supposed quality teams.

really? on a Monday?

Sorry to bring up such a mundane topic....  Would you rather use this time to discuss Colonel Jessup's favorite color?   

But thanks for the hypotheses.  We can move on now.   

[PC]

Is Colonel Jessup the guy who fires the cannon when the Scots score?

[The Roop]

Don't tell him scottie. I bet he can't handle the truth.

soo...the runner-up championship game is this saturday

red hawks v. green knights

which colored mascot will reign supreme?

this game seems bigger for snc than ripon as snc still has some playoff hopes

[bombsovertrees]

Two predictions:

Ripon over SNC by 14 or more.

Monmouth 173 Opponents: 18 (16 by IC's offense they go for 2 both times, and LFC's special teams gets a safety on a snap over the punters head that bounces off the ref, and goes into the endzone.)


As a point of reference they outscored their remaining schedule 180-29 a year ago. Including that 78-17 whooping over IC.

By the way-- how does Maughan get named Offensive POTW over Niekamp or Sobey== they won (niekamp head to head) and he lost??

Niekamp  40-28-0   299  6   37    1
Maughan 37-27-1   423  3   66    4
Sobey      45-24-1   256  4   55    3     + a 42 yard TD run

That just doesn't seem right. I know he has gaudy yards, but 1. He lost. 2 he has threw fewer touchdown passes on the day than those qb's and Tanney.

Did that equation include any offensive output from the Prairie Fire?  Remember, you can throw the records out the window when these two teams collide....   

[The Roop]

At the risk of extending an argument, Maughn did break two school records in the game.

If only there was a way the WIAC can avoid this...like scheduling some non-conference schools near by to save costs.......

A compelling argument.  A DII opponent would probably pay decent money for a game, although some may be worried about playing a team from a larger school.  Something to consider....

p.s.  The map paints quite a picture.

I second that, why would you expect schools with enrollments 1/8 to 1/4 your size to come knocking?

6 div II teams in ohio, 9  in minnesota, 8  in michigan, 1 in illinois, 1 in iowa, 2 in indiana, 8 in missouri, 3 in south dakota, 2 in north dakota

Ripon played UW-O the last four years, and I believe Oshkosh's enrollment is more than 10 times the size of RC's.

As far as I know there is not a D-II in Illinois

Hence why UW-L picked up games with FCS opponents North Dakota and South Dakota State the last few seasons.  On the other hand, when Winona State's program improved, they dropped UW-L since a loss would kill their hopes for a DII at-large bid and a win did them no good in obtaining an at-large.
