FB: Midwest Conference

[fulbakdad]

Valdivia with a 62 yard scamper scoring his 4th TD and 160 plus night and Lake Forest goes up by 2 TD's in the 4th.  Defense needs to get MUCH more consistent in the future games....

[fulbakdad]

Valdivia with his 5th Td.  Over 200 now.

[fulbakdad]

Lake Forest over Lawrence 42 26.  Valdivia with 260 yards and 5 td's.  Very fun player to watch.  Should be easy for D3Footaball.com to get it right in the recap, all 5 Td's were running.  Offense was very balanced and confident.  Defense needs to become more consistent.  We get to see them in person next week at Home.  Very excited!

It would appear the top half and the bottom half were clearly clarified this week. Yeesh.

Hey buddy it was great meeting you last Weekend!

[fulbakdad]

Yeah Astro, same.

I enjoyed going back to the Forest.  Had fun with some old friends.  Good game to go to also.

One thing that stuck out to me was that how quietly Valdivia picks up yards.  He had the nice TD run where he left 6 pairs of Macalester cleats stuck to the field.  But at the end of the game I thought I was going to see 100 yards rushing or so.  Seemed like a quiet game for him.  Then the box score comes up and he had 170.  Funny, cuz at one of the earlier games I missed watching, I had texted a coach and asked how he did in that game.  The coach texted back 100 yards or so.  The box score came up and he had 220.

Might want to fix the Midwest Conference standings page.  Has LFC and IC 1-0 in conference while Mac and Beloit are listed as 0-1.  My understanding is that these cross-divisional games aren't supposed to count toward the conference standings (as they didn't for the other games).

Thanks. We had these games marked correctly but people at the schools changed them and we can't easily stop them from doing that.
