Franklin takes the lead on their opening drive after half 24 - 21.

[KYGrizzly]

Start of the 4th quarter as Franklins takes over on downs. NCC starting QB was knocked out of the game on their last series and may not return. Franklin is driving and is in NCC territory.

Touchdown Franklin Franklin 31 - NCC 21 with 13:06 left to play.

[KYGrizzly]

Another touchdown for Franklin as they lead 38 - 21 with seven minutes to play. Franklins defense has really stepped up this half and has only allowed 3 first doens.

If Franklin holds on I believe the HCAC will have it's first second round playoff win in conference history.

It's lookin' pretty good, KY Grizz - and looks like Wheaton might as well have moved their campus to Indiana for month.

Touchdown NCC 38 - 28 with 5:22 to go.

Congrats Franklin for beating the #2 team in the country & moving on in the playoffs!!!

[KYGrizzly]

Interception Franklin with 52 seconds left to play. Franklin takes a knee and NCC coach will not take a timeout.

Final Franklin 38 - 28 and they will take on Wheaton at Franklin  next Saturday.

Congrats to the Grizzlies as their season continues into December.

What a day KYGrizzly, another W for Franklin & four more posts & you move up in status!  Congrats again!

[KYGrizzly]

Let's make it three more posts, and it could be a really good day if U of K could knock off Tennessee in football for the first time in I don't know how many years and then the round ball Cats knock off West Virginia out in Vegas.

My son called me from the game and said that NCC fans said thought the fFranklin were a bunch of hillbillies. He saad he had to remind them that there are no hills around the Idianapolis area.

I guess technically they were right in calling him a hillbilly scince he is from Kentucky.

Congrats to Franklin! on a great win. 

It is safe to say, that you now have a bunch of Wabash Faithful riding on your bandwagon.

Wheaton was very tough today and beat us all over the field.  Should be a great one next week.

Rupp is as good as it gets. 

Go Grizz!

Congratulations to the Franklin team and you Franklin fans on a great win for the program.  I guess they made some believers out of the "nay-sayers".  Some people thought NCC - a very good team - had it locked up.

Rupp for Gagliardi!

Rupp for Gagliardi!

Great win, Franklin. Keep it goin'.

You would think that Rupp would have to be right up there for All American status with the season he is having this year.
