I am trying to get back to my VoR today. And actually I have not been to Ripon. That year my son was injured the week before and he came home that weekend. That is the only game I have missed so far in the 4 seasons.

But I do not like the sound of the refs bind worse. But when one of those procedure calls is made from the opposite side of the field and when asked who it was on, they did not even know!  But I digress. :)

On to the Blue Boys. So far weather is supposed to be excellent.

All I can say is OUCH! Hard to believe that a team  could have a worse offense game than the Bears did last night but the Scots sure did on Saturday. The score would have been closer if we just took a knee every time and punted.  But congrats to Dad and St. Norbert's. But c'mon  crying about those penalties after winning 48-2? Most of them were procedure calls anyway with a couple of obvious holds. The one I will give you was that offensive pass interference call.... that was really bad. As far as what would the score have been??? Anything that kept MC's offense off the field helped us! ;D and finally I know you've been to Ripon before, so thse guys could not have been the most biased officials you've ever seen.

So far this year the officials have been horrible for both sides at RC..  RC is now entering the toughest part of their schedule, MC, IC, SNC, Beloit, then well LU.... 
Here is my thought on this weeks game....  Ripon and thier opponent will be the GOW for the rest of the season...

MC @ RC - could be a tough game, no one likes coming off of a 48-2 loss, they'll bring the heat, however when you base your whole team around 1 person and that person gets injured, you are bound to have a tough season.  RC wins by 14...  I will be at this game, fingers crossed, and can't wait!  Anyone from MC making the trip?

I would also agree that if you win 48-2 there is NO reason to even bring up the "bad" calls the officials made.  I'm a big believer that the Officials don't win/lose games, it's the teams.  But to bring up bad calls when you won by 46 points is just rubbing salt in the wound. 

Good Luck this week to everyone(but MC ::)) however, safe travels...

SNCOLDAD

So you are all saying only bring up bad calls if you lose?    ??? 

No way. When my team loses, that is NOT the time to discuss bad officiating. When you win is the time so you can be a little more objective about it.

But enough on that. I am done discussing officials. I know they do the best they are capable of  ::) and I would not want the job.  :P

BoBo, I saw later that it was 1 point. But I think you will agree winning in front of 16,000+ at the Johnnies is at least worth an extra 6 or 7 points. But I will say that the Tommies will give UWW a run for their money at the very least.

St. John's lost to UW Eau Claire as well... so will UWEC give UWW a run for their money in the WIAC?  UWEC seems to be the solid team thus far.

SNCOLDAD

02 Warhawk, I can't answer your question. You tell me. Will UWEC give UWW a run for their money? Have not seen them. And the only reason I said UWW and not Mt Union is I figure that the Tommies and UWW would meet in the playoffs before the Tommies would meet Mt Union.  ;D

Are you saying that you don't like the chances of the Green Knights?  How about a little MWC optimism??

I think SNC will probably be moved to the East in order to balance the #1 seeds.  ::)

I also like Pat's poll on the 5-0 teams and how many playoff games they will win. Man, did I laugh.

I noticed today that Ripon garnered some votes in the AFCA top 25 poll. 

Any scots making the trip up to ripon?  Bringing any bagpipes?

The way this conference is and the way some have assumed it will turn out is quite interesting.

BUT, it is hard to be the Voice of Reason when so many assume the outcome will be a certain way.

It is very nice to hear that Ripon has garnered some Top 25 votes. I like that.

scottie, not your normal to concede defeat so easily.

Double spacing so you can read between the lines. Is everything so set in all your minds that there is no doubt in the outcome?

We're only 4 games in to the season, the way I see it is there are still 5 games left of the MWC playoffs.

-Every week can change the season-
