So Greg Pawlick is now Meachscribe?

His being a writer must account for SNC getting 1 vote in the top 25....

What would account for the 4 votes they received 2 weeks ago?  Type o's?

How are all the Scots doing this year!!!!  Remember Hamm's is better than Bud Light!

ritz - Thanks for the visit to the MWC board buddy!  Like kiltman said, us Fighting Scots are doing pretty well right now.  If the chance should arise again, I'll take a Hamm's if you take a Bud Light.  

Haven't heard much out of several other Scots so far this year...you out there guys?

[fightintitan2006]

My picks for this week...

Ripon at Carroll – Ripon gets revenge for last years blowout and wins a great game on a late score 35-31

Lawrence at Illinois College – is LU on track to finish strong again? can IC rebound from the loss to Ripon? Jennings throws 2 fourth quarter TD passes and IC wins 28-24

Monmouth at Grinnell – MC lead 56-0 at half, win 56-20

St. Norbert at Knox – SNC run game breaks out and Knox loses four fumbles in 36-0 SNC win

Beloit at Lake Forest – lake forest has proven there d is very good, but has no wins to show for it...they get their first 21-6


With what looks like easy wins for St. Norbert and Monmouth this week, the league title will be decided in De Pere next week for the second year in a row. I am thinking of getting rid of my badger tickets (northwestern) to go watch this one.

If St. Norbert doesn't defend there home turf this year, which I think they will (that picks for next week ; )   they may not do it for a while. Looking at last week's box score and the roster on monmouth's site, they started eight sophomores and a junior on defense last week.

Another addition of in the Midwest Conference.

Vikings @ Blue Boys> The Vikings pack up thier ships and set sail down I-55 to Jacksonville taking on a motivated and hungry Blue Boy squad. The Vikings are begining to find out who thier playmakers are and in a close game I see the Viks pillaging IC.
Vikings 34 - Blue Boys 17

Game Of The Week
Red Hawks @ Pioneers> What a game the Hawks played against IC, but they will have to take their show on the road and play against and injured Pioneer team. You know, nobody circles the wagons like the Carroll Pioneers, but the Hawks are too much. In a game not as colse as the experts think The Hawks will soar.
Red Hawks 28 - Pioneers 10

Fighting Scots @ Pioneerrs> Old Wally breaks out the David vs. Goliath speach to fire up the troops. It works untill kickoff. Monmouth rolls.......
Scots 55 - Pioneers 9

Green Knights @ Prairie Fire> The Knights trot into the Knox Bowl ( The House Chad Eisele Renovated) in a bit of a funk.....playing sloppy ball, and not what Purtil is used to. The Fire, fueld by their new AD storm the field with passion and play the Nubs close......a late field goal wins it for the purple and gold. Upset City
Prairie Fire 24 - Knights 21

Buccaneers @ Foresters> The Swashbucklers enter the Forest looking for a big win. It's Homecoming, so expect a  zoo like atmosphere at old LF. The Foresters are looking to get off the schnide and will do so. The Red & Black rise again for the big crowd and keep the streak alive against the Bucs
Foresters 24 - Bucs 6

Forester 14 you are a foolish fellow. I care not to wasn't any more time than I already have to dispell your ignorat pick but that sloppy ball is averaging 400 yards per game and putting up 37.5 per game. O'Connell has a field day in this joke of a game in this joke of a conference! good day!

[coolaw56]

"This joke of a conference" that you played in!!!!!!??

[Forester 14]

Look Here Emmy, or should I call you Mr. Screllia?? The Nubs have been playing sloppy ball.......turnovers and 115 yards in flags = sloppy ball
     I miss you, and we need to meet up soon cuase the lint is building up.......

[PapaSmurf]

I hear Purtill has taken steps to cut down on the penalties this week, especially those of the "holding" variety.  Looks like rain again tomorrow which could keep the scoring low.  I wonder how the Knights rushing defense (less than 90 yds/game) will fare against Knox's only offense, the running game.

[kiltman85]

Time for the picks of the week....

Ripon at Carroll – Carroll's D is good enough to shut Ripon down.....CC 21-17

Lawrence at Illinois College – Jennings is good, but Lawrence proves that they are a pretty good team   LU 24-21

Monmouth at Grinnell – Monmouth follows up last years 69-14 win with another 60 point performance.  MC 62-7

St. Norbert at Knox – Knox has a running offense that is pretty good, but SNC is too good, Norbert 35-14

Beloit at Lake Forest – Lake Forest follows up their narrow loss last week with their first win of the year, LFC 14-7

Anyone have a score for the IC - LU game?

[Maverick]

According to the D3football.com Scoreboard page and webcasts...

Illinois College 21 - Lawrence 20   FINAL
Ripon 21 - Carroll 14   FINAL
St. Norbert leads Knox 35-21   Early in the 4th quarter
Monmouth leads Grinnell 44-18   Early in the 4th quarter
Lake Forest leads Beloit 23-0   Halftime...hasn't been updated recently

[wc2viking]

Thanks, Maverick.

I think the Lawrence game was just added to the scoreboard.  Sound like a tough loss for the Vikes.  Hopefully, they'll turn it around and finish the season strong.
