FB: Midwest Conference

[ticker]

time for the knights to right the ship...need a BIG w this weekend...not just a W, but something to restore a little confidence 40 or 50+....

47...you've been quiet lately...good luck this weekend and congrats in advance!

It looked to me that Carrol dominated IC in all areas of the game..... Carrol is no longer just another win on the schedule.....not that IC is a powerhouse

Ripon beat a terrible team in Larry....Double threat Foulds beat them by himself

Beloit handed an awful game to the Trees...or is the LFC defense just that good....I don't know........and is someone going to try and defend the trees only offensive threat in #2

A big win for the Scot's.....The biggest roadblock to 10-0 has been cleared at least mentally by going to DePue and winning

Wow...congrats to Lee Rankinen on running wild against what I had previously thought of as a tough D....LFC still won with the help of turnovers but to allow 246 yards on the ground.......


Also Player of the Week in the Nation...nice job

Lake Forest will have a good shot at beating Ripon this weekend, but only if their defense plays an awesome game.  That has been the only thing keeping LF in games.  Ripon put up over 400 yards rushing again last week and was stopped 3 times inside the 10.  Coles suprisingly decided to run the clock instead of trying to put another score on them with about 20 seconds left.

I have to say the top of the Conference looks bizarre to me.  Lake Forrest, Monmouth and Carroll???  Not that the other teams are out of it, but I don't see the champ having more than 1 loss. 

Let's go RC.....LF at home!!! 

Quade is a stud!  Defensive MVP!!!!

my first post, but I've read the board since '02...

So what's it gonna take for LFC to get respect from everybody? Granted LFC isn't a favorite for the championship until they beat Monmouth or Norbert, but how about 27-6 record since '02, losing only to Monmouth x2, St Norbert x2, Carroll (who played good teams tough in '03) and OK a crappy game to Knox? That mean anything to anyone?

CBS - even odds? How about 3-0 in last three years against Ripon.

#2 is only threat? Huebner's all the Foresters needed thus far, maybe if somebody actually defends the guy then Mahaney will look elsewhere. Plus RBs Washington, Furlong both averaging 5 yds/carry - just don't need to run when you can pass all over everybody.

Rankinen, hell of a game, over 200 yards, you deserve to be on nat'l team.

Gentlemen of Beloit,

Men, you need to pull this together. Send Ed out right. They cannot stop that offense. Get nasty and mean and get a Homecoming Victory.

That is all.

Hello to all proud scot fans,
I just recently talked with ex-QB#8 and he filled me in on just how great the MC/SNC game was. It's games like that that make me miss playing for Steve Bell.  I saw that the MC D-line got some press for the victory performance, which is exactly how it should be. I bet Ole has got those fellas fired up about bucking the bucs. This week should be really interesting with the Scots visiting Beloit. De George has always been able to get the most out of his teams. On a similar note the Mitchell Mustangs are playing the Gulf High Buccaneers this week if we can manage to dodge a hurricane. Our offense needs to have a break out game to rebound from last weeks shut out.
Well good luck to all those Scoties out there.
Give 'em hell Nick Bush!!!
PMS the Rooster.

FloridaScot - Just so you know, this week's game against Beloit is at Monmouth.  Should be a great day for a game here in Scot-land; right now it sounds like the weather here is going to cooperate for Saturday at least, but expecting some rain on the days around gameday.  Good luck staying out of the hurricane troubles down there and get those Mitchell boys back on track this week!  PMS!!!

They should've also thanked the conference office for nominating him.

Good Luck Brent Becker and our Foresters this Saturday!!!!!!!!!Though we can't be there in body, we'll be there in spirit.  One game at a time.  Don't look past this one!

[scottie]

That Keith McMillan can sure tell it like it is...

Week 4 quick hits
-> Eye-opener of the week: Monmouth surging to the front of the Midwest Conference pack. After a 9-1, no-playoff 2004, the Scots don't appear to be leaving the postseason to chance this time around.

Good luck against the Bucs!

I smell a big win this weekend against the Bucs for the Scots.  I know ole got something with making the Bucs black and blue this week.  Can always count on Ole.  Good luck Scots and bring the win back home.  Rooster, help me out.  What is the name of the bowl we are going to win next week and is it still sponsered by Fazoli's.  See you guys later.  PAPA

[Old Fighting Scot]

Go Scots, Buck the Bucs!  you guys need to be 4-0 going into Lake Forest to make the trip worthwhile for Smoov.  As far as the newfound national accolades, "If you dominate, they will come!"
