Majors finally stop Austin, force a 3 and out and now have the ball again at the end of 1st quarter.

As the Millsaps-AC contest is now represented by others, I'll focus on TU/RC and CC/DPU.

Trinity three-and-out, get a beautiful 61 yard punt, three and out for Rhodes but after only a 25-yard punt the Tigers set up on the Lynx 38. Unfortunately, another fumble deep in Rhodes territory and the Lynx take over on their 4. Three-and-out and after another short punt and return Trinity will again take over in great field position, this time at the Rhodes 29.

Millsaps puts together a nice drive and ties it up at 14 with about 8 to go in the first half.

Dubose is crying about the students in the end zone just like he did last time they rolled through Sherman.

Ron Boerger · September 19, 2009, 02:50:35 PM

DePauw holds Centre on the opening possession.

Trinity is now playing Patrick Dickinson at QB, a 6'2" sophomore who has seen no action this year. No idea if it's an injury to Davidson or not. Dickinson does complete two passes but can't recover from a sack. Another short field goal makes it 13-7 Trinity with 8:32 left in the half.

Gutsy call by the AC coaching staff, going for it on fourth-and-one at their own 30 (and converting).

Austin up again 21-14 with 4:30 left in half, could be a shootout in Sherman.

IMHO - Dubose was yelling at his own players to ignore the students, not complaining about them.

KentATM · September 19, 2009, 03:01:31 PM

I dunno Major, he was really in a refs ear pointing down there at them.

having sat over there before I do know it gets quite salty.

Ron Boerger · September 19, 2009, 03:02:27 PM

Dickinson is doing pretty darned well so far, finds Caleb Urban who beats one man from 19 yards out. 20-7 with 3:47 left in the half. 6-8-0 82 yds in two series for the youngster from San Antonio Central Catholic.

Have not gotten updates for some time from Greencastle, Centre had just gotten into DPU territory.

Regarding the students, webcast makes it sound like the students are only a yard or two off the field. If true, that's a situation that makes things more dangerous for Austin DBs and Millsaps receivers.

Twitter @DePauwAthletics Third quarter: Centre 27, DePauw 3, 3:17 left

Trinity up 27-7 as Dickinson finds Curry on a lob from ten yards out. 0:22 left in the half.

Twitter @DePauwAthletics End of third: Centre 27, DePauw 3

The TU defense is playing very well today. Rhodes had 28 net yards in the first half. 35 of that came on the last play of the half (a draw).

As well he should be. They're literally standing on the end zone line. That's not right. And, they're beating on trash cans, pots and pans, etc. That's an obvious flag for artificial noisemakers. Millsaps can't even bring in kazoos for crying out loud.

This is something I've wondered about for a while. You go to an ASC game and the home team has a 'couch crew' which does exactly this. AC came from the ASC. I've never seen this at another SCAC game.

BTW, live stats back up and it's now 34-3 Centre. DPU is now driving and Michael Engle is now the QB for the Tigers. Spud's line: 19-35-3 155 and 0 TDs.

Another reason it's dangerous is they're in the field of play. If there's a pass in the back of the end zone, a student is going to literally get bowled over.

Ralph Turner · September 19, 2009, 03:29:59 PM

Spud Dick had the wind knocked out him. He walked off the field, and Centre subbed for him.

DePauw scored a TD by Ellis, 1-yd run. PAT is good; 9:36 left in the game. CC 34-10

Ron Boerger · September 19, 2009, 03:33:12 PM

Starting Trinity QB Davidson is 'on crutches with a heavily wrapped left ankle'.

Johnathan Pinque fumbles and DPU takes only one play to score, Engle finding Koors for 45. 34-18 CC after the two-point conversion, 6:38 to play.

Trinity fumbles the second half kick, Rhodes starts on the TU 30. Three plays later, Rhodes fumbles it back. Geez.

ASC!!!???!!!

Oh my! There's goes the neighborhood. You should have known it, when you let AC in.

Only one thing to do, and that is to send them back to the ASC!
