FB: Midwest Conference

[Old Fighting Scot]

in pawslicker's defense, UWW beat everybody like that this year, and the wiac is supposed to be one of the best conferences around.

Scottie-  I am just sick and tired of the pointless chatter from anyone from the MWC on this board.  I have been around the IIAC, WIAC, and MWC.  The champ from the MWC, year in and year out, would at best finish third in the other two conferences.  The talent level is considerable less in the MWC.  The reason the teams from the other conferences have loses is because the teams in them are all pretty equal (talent wise.)  The MWC cannot compete with the WIAC, IIAC, MIAC, and many other conferences in recruiting and it shows on the field.  I have been around these conference and board for over a year now, have not said a word, BUT I WILL BE SILENT NO MORE.  I have seen it all, the MWC and MC does not stand a chance against St. John's.

Good comeback, kiltedrat.     After the Scots pull the upset, you'll be doing a little bit of this after the game....

Good job scottie you have awoken a sleeping giant

Lost.

I'll only go back two years on you.

What happened vs. (2004) Carleton (from Fresh Prince??), SNC, FFC, MC, CC. (2004) SNC, LFC, MC, CC, RC, IC, GC?

You "nearly" beat SNC? Nearly is the key word. In what sport can you get points for nearly doing something? Come on everybody, all at once - horseshoes.

I will tone down my barb next time when you bring up the 1995 national ranking. Guess what. You're conference doesn't care about natty rankings anymore. We want playoff wins, Old School.

Good luck on replacing DeGeorge.

Bottomline:  a little more speed on D and One more playmaker on O is keeping the scots from winning a national title with their current team.  But the intangibles of tanney, and the skills of the playmakers we do have will make saturday's game a lot more interesting than the D3football.com nation think........

Beware of the Scots Nation, the fever is spreading and reaching epic proportions![/b

That, by far, is the most rediculous thing EVER said on ANY board.........

This from a former SNC coach? Are you kidding?

[scottie]

OV - You do know about the recruiting restrictions of the MWC, right?  Leave that issue out of the equation because there's nothing we can do about that.

It's about time to let the players decide this game on the field.  (Thank goodness!)  Please stay of our our room during basketball season.

GO SCOTS

Why, you asked for an honest opinion and you got one.  I dont believe the Johnnies are national title caliber, I believe that they are good enough to be where they are, but have enought weaknesses to be shocked by MC.....

So there!!!!

[johnniebread]

Why just bring the Scots Nation when you could bring the whole damn MWC Nation? Greg perhaps you could persuade coach Purtill to come along as well. Gather as many former SNC players as possible and come relive the Collegeville experience one last time.

Good comeback, kiltedrat.     After the Scots pull the upset, you'll be doing a little bit of this after the game....  

Wanna bet a t-shirt (new) on it?

SJU wins, you send me a Monmouth t-shirt, MC wins, I send you an SJU t-shirt?

Greg

yes-Beloit has been down. Back to my original point, if a program that is not supposed to contend gives the team that is supposed to win the conference one of its closest games of the year what does that tell you about the state of the program?
Perhaps the loses of the many members of the "Little General's" staff have now become noticeable. Larry showed real promise this season--draw your own conclusions.

Let's say this---Beloit will bring in a new HC that will be able to recruit---Like the Little General did in the Spring of 99--and they will contend again---They finished strong and have the the best rb in the conference.

Let's both agree that we will cheer for MC on Saturday.

For MC to have a chance they have to keep the game close and not be overwhelmed SJU terrific defense. Patience is key--if they press mistakes will happen.

K-rat:  I don't do business on this site.  (I also have CD's available for the music fans in my new Minnesota fan club.)  But a t-shirt wager is probably possible since I'm a good sport.  Email me from my profile link.

So there!!!!

Name 5 weaknesses you believe the Johnnies have..

Here is what I am gathering the 5 for MON are---

1.  NO playoff experience (Clemens Stadium)
2.  Suspect O line against a dominant D- line
3.  Have not seen the speed SJU will bring to the table
4.  May be forced to become 1 dimensional without being able to establish a running game.
5.  The film that MON has seen of SJU, last 2 games shows VERY little of the O.  The last 2 have been as vanilla as I have seen in years....
