FC looking good early up 21-0 with a little under ten minutes to go in first half.

Rupp has already thrown for over 200 yards plus they have combined for over 100 yards rushing.

If Rupp & Dillon keep on padding their stats for the rest of the season, it will be interesting to see who gets the offensive MVP b/c right now they are putting up huge #'s.

Any update on the DC score?

[dc_has_been]

20-7 DC at the end of the first was the last update that I've seen.

27-21 DC at the half

[cave2bens]

28-27, RHIT.  Start of 4th, DC has ball on Rose 18 after 36 yd Vetter draw, Thornton run, and quick passes to Dillon and Nate.

[cave2bens]

Touchdown, Vetter to Dillon.  2 pt misfires.  Dillon has 10 catches, 145 yds, 4 TDs.

[cave2bens]

Congrats to DC and thank you, RHIT long-snapper.  RHIT muffs winning FG with 5 seconds left.  33 to 31.

Sun and heat got to both teams in Defiance today.  Though I think RHIT looked in better condition at the end of the game.

RHIT had the ball, down 2 points, with 4 minutes to go.  On 1st and ten, they throw a 40 yard bomb that was defended well, but the receiver caught it on what looked like the 2nd or 3rd attempt.  After that, it looked like they were going to march right down the field and put it in the end zone...certainly everyone felt the game-winning field goal attempt was coming.  Then, DC intercepted a pass with 1:55 on the clock at the 5 yard line.  RHIT had one time out, which they used after 1st down.  On 2nd down, DC gains a few yards, leaving 3rd and 5 or 6.  Clock running...snap come at about 1:05.  Tailback takes the ball and tries to run clock by going around the end.  Ball pops loose and RHIT recovers about the 25 yard line...probably already in field goal position.

They take 2 plays to gain 7 or 8 more yards and center the ball on the middle of the field.  Spike the ball on 3rd down with 8.5 seconds.  Field goal unit comes out.  I thought the snap was good from where I was on the home side....apparently cave2bens thinks it was bad *shrug*.  Whatever happened, the ball that came off his foot was the worst ball I'd seen him kick all day (warm ups included).  It was kinda a knuckling line drive that hit the upright and bounced back into the endzone.  DC just took a knee to end the game.

The ironic thing, after all that talk about penalties this week, there were probably 4 or 5 flags thrown total today (about 2-3 per team).

Thanks for the play-by-play altor, I would have been going nuts if I was there.
Did I read right that "the Berg" beat Baldwin-Wallace?  That would be a huge win for their program.  Also, it is good to see that Manchester is currently 3-2!, they have something in common w/ the Detroit Lions

[victorybell_57]

yep, they beat baldwin wallace. amazing.

franklin was tough today, from what i heard.

i just got done watching all of the big games. big times games from cincy and lsu, and osu and stanford??? wow, harbaugh leading like bo. or leading like his father.

not too much else. the good guys keep winning and big time college ball is filled with whacky business. we should all meet in fort wayne and go to a nice asian massage parlor. enjoy your sundays and have a great day.

[SaintsFAN]

How about Harbaugh calling out USC (-44) during the PAC 10 Media Day....he said they might have been the best team in college football history and then beats them...wow

Pete Carroll's face is priceless when the Trojans get beat..

Coach Hallett and his staff leading the Student Princes over Baldwin Wallace...wow.

Thomas More gets all over the 7th ranked defense in the country.  Using another freshman QB making his first collegiate start...they pound Westminster 34-7

and finally, Notre Dame is OFF the schnide...

great day for me.

[SaintsFAN]

also my old QB's Coach, Steve Sigler's team was victorious yesterday over Wisconsin. 

Congrats Coach Sigs.....you have come a long way from Panhandle St to Illinois....if you are reading this....I've lost your number since our last "chat" from back in December.  Give me a call. 

[SaintsFAN]

also got to call out the MSJ Sports Information Department....  I mean, the local news showed some highlights of the win against Hanover (two plays to be exact), but its more than this website has seen all year...step up.  You've got a good football team once again, but nobody outside of Cincinnati can read about it.


also, Pat.....I didn't see the Thomas More/Westminster game on the schedule yesterday...did I miss something??

Sounds as if you had a better seat, surveying the "back 40" and Mikula's corn crop than I - listening to "The Bull -105.7" and their rather mundane/broken commentary - from my less than scenic office in Atlanta.  Simply relaying description of high snap, and "difficulty for the holder," per the announcer (amidst his plea for "brownies from some co-ed." 

Apologies to the RHIT center if non-confirmatory post caused undue, personal agitation.  Just satisfied that Mike's HOF induction and another missed Homecoming wasn't marred by a DC faux pax.  Chalked as a "my bad" - for what that's worth.
