What's going on with the DC/Ott game? I can't get the game for some reason, only the silly radio station music. Wasn't the game supposed to start 7:30?

VBell,

How many times was Henkle's name called today?  I lost count - he had a monster game.  As did Rupp, but that seems to be the norm for him against Wabash.  Gorrell had a big game, and Hartsfield had a huge run.  I can tell you that even up 28-17, the lead never felt safe (for good reason, as it turned out).  Good luck the rest of the way - as you said, there may be a rematch looming in the near future.  I just hope we're at full strength the rest of the year.

Saw on the OAC board that the DC game was delayed due to the weather conditions.

Oregon 39, Michigan 7

Michigan 0-2

I can't imagine the natives are going to stand for much more of this.

Just breaks my heart!

can somebody explain to me why your qb was on the hands team? after he torches the grizzly secondary to the tune of a million yards, why is he on that team? probably the only poor coaching job by wabash the whole day. i hope he is back soon, and at full strength.

rupp, hinkle, good ball players, great people. you'll find them both very humble, i'd want them to take my sister out on a date.

long day of ball, i still haven't received all the scores, i am calling it a day. god bless america for letting us get a day of ball like this, even though the grizzlies came up short. by damn, we still have a shot to be 9-1 and making the playoffs.

Last score seen from Westerville - DC 13 and Otterbein 0 at the half.  
So much for pool action today, but at least I picked Heidelberg  

VB - and after your sister, have them take my wife out (please) and give me a break

The Michigan game was an ugly one today & their backup doesn't look like the savior either.  Hopefully Henne is ok & Mich can bounce back.  I'm just happy this is Carr's last year at the Big House b/c they'll be losing even more talent this year than last.

A trivia question (I don't know the answer, but I'm sure dozens of sportswriters/broadcasters will inform me in the coming week!) which will warm the hearts of Michigan and/or Notre Dame haters: as the two winningest programs in college football, have they EVER faced each other with a combined 0-4 (or worse) record?  And since one has to win, one lose, this coming week, has there ever been a year when they started 0-3, 1-2 (or worse) in the same year?

I have already seen that this is the first time UM has started with two losses at home since 1959.

This is the first time ever the U of M and ND have both started 0-2 so they have never faced each other under these conditions.

Holtz, et.al. broke down this very question at halftime of the LSU-VaTech... what was really startling was the PPG avg given up by each teams' defenses over the last four games - 37.6 for ND and 36.8 for MI.  That is bloody pathetic - h*ll, the US didn't give up that many points to England in the Rugby Championships, yesterday - that betting line was 34+

DC 16 Ott 8 early in the fourth.

Franklin -  fantastic game today.  Rupp is topshelf and your defense is very tough against the run.   Your D ran into a prolific passing offense today that has many weapons, but it was almost not enough.

Good luck during the rest of the season and bring home a conference championship!

Are we on your schedule next year?  or was it a 2 year deal.   I would like to see you become a regular on the Wabash schedule.

DC 16  Ott 14   5:05 left.

Darned storms - I need my beauty sleep

[JacketsFan]

Damn, maybe DC is going to pull one out of its hat tonight. I still can't get the game. Cave2bens, have you been listening to it? How's DC done?

[dc_has_been]

The thing that sucks for me is that I'm out here on the west coast & it's only 10 p.m. & I can't get the game on the web.  Now I'm waiting to get the final score so that I can finally go out.
