AC 13. SWAG 7. AC pat blocked. SWAG comes back and scores on pass play. Now 14-13 SWAG. 6:53 IN 2nd Q.

Ben Robinson returns an interception 62 yards to the Rhodes 10, Desmond King scores on the next play, it's now Trinity 27, Rhodes 0 with about two minutes left in the first half.

Big stop for the 'Roos as they get a sack and recover the ensuing fumble after SAGU had driven to the ten.

Edit: Trinity holds Rhodes again, go 55 yds in three plays culminating in a 30-yd McKissic to Kattner TD pass to lead 34-0 at the half.

SAGU returns a fumble 60-odd yards to take a 21-13 lead at Austin.

Trinity recovers a fumble on Rhodes' opening drive, take it 40 yards and score when Nyk McKissick hits Mason Lytal from seven yards out. 41-0 in Memphis. I'd say the new defensive coordinator has earned his paycheck so far this season!

So called fumble was an incoplete forward pass in the flat that no official blew whistle on. Chalk that score up to the zebras.

Sorry to hear that, roocru.

Backups are in the game at Memphis, QB Justin Adler goes 2-2 and then scores from 32 out to increase the lead to 48-0.

Edit: and after an intecerception by Jai Boatman, Adler score again, this time from 33 out. 55-0, 4:11 to play in 3rd.

Ron Boerger · September 17, 2011, 04:19:57 PM

62-0 Trinity after Adler finds Hix from eight yards out on the second play of the 4th quarter. Rhodes had a 4th and 1 at midfield but were stopped for a loss.

SAGU gets another score and lead AC 28-13 with time starting to be a factor in there.

Puget Sound up 3-0 on Sewanee, who failed to convert a fourth-and-short in Logger territory.

Brett Stoops saves the Lynx from the goose egg, throwing a 20-yd pass (and 7-8 for 78 overall), so your final from Memphis is 62-7. Trinity had over 500 yards on the day and held Rhodes to 205 (nearly half of that thanks to Mr. Stoops' late game effort).

Tough luck for AC as turnovers continue to lead to points for SAGU. 35-13 with a few seconds left.

Sewanee gets a TD and trails 10-7 despite turning the ball over on downs twice in Logger territory. UPS just partially blocked a punt and have great field position inside the 30. EDIT: Sewanee gets an INT at the goal line and return it out to the 25 or so.

I'm happy to see Trinity off to a good start this year. I know they haven't hit the meat of the schedule yet, but there's something to be said for building confidence and momentum early in the season. Sounds like a fun team to watch so far.

They're at Millsaps next week, Will - good to see them executing so much better on both sides of the ball than last year, when they went 1-2 against the same three teams. They'll need to be at their best to defeat the Majors, but the potential is there.

Sewanee is surprising UPS, up 14-10 after blocking a UPS field goal attempt on the last play of the half.

Ron: Thanks for the updates on the Sewanee/UPS game. Away from the office today and not able to get the UPS audio stream over 3G on my iPhone.

Just wanted to pop in here after my trip across to Naples (new FL resident in Boynton Beach) to see a D-3 game. BSC dominated Ave Maria in the trenches, which could be expected with Ave being a new program. But BSU looks like they definitely have talent and speed, and I think they'll do well in the conference this season.

Sorry that I could not post more, but Sewanee score 20 3rd quarter points and won today, 34-23. Congratulations!!

Thanks for the update, Smed. BSC is one of about four teams that will have a say in who will win the SCAC.

Millsaps trailing Louisiana College 21-0 at half - wonder if they are playing their backup QB.

W&L scores first on Centre and holds the Colonels to a 3&out on their first series. 7-0 there, W&L has ball in Centre territory after a 17-yd punt.

Ron Boerger · September 17, 2011, 08:03:00 PM

Millsaps now trailing 28-0. QB Pinicioni (sp?) is struggling, 6-for-23 or something like that.

After one, Centre trailing W&L 14-0 but on 2 yd line.

Ron Boerger · September 17, 2011, 08:24:50 PM

LC now up 42-0 on Millsaps. Wow x2.

W&L up 21-7 on Centre and stopped Colonels on a fake punt in their own territory. Really crappy weekend for the SCAC.
