FB: Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference

[SaintsFAN]

310 would put him at best in 2nd place all-time.  I actually think thats where he is now that I think about it.  Malone won 311 during my senior season in 1994 against McNicholas.  Talk about a circus atmosphere... the local channels were there as a couple sports channels..  There were probably 5,000-6,000 at that game. 

Adam,

How about my Irish?  3-1 today....They don't really play anyone until North Carolina and Boston College now... and even those guys are ACC teams.  I think 8 or 9 wins is what the Irish are going to do... bowl game here we come.  Hopefully we can win one and have the talking heads stop bringing up how long its been since ND has won one (1993 against Texas A&M).

My mistake on FC having opportunity to beat Rose prior to MSJ.  FC plays Rose after.  That game may end up being for the conference championship.  I am glad to see more than two teams in the mix. It would be great if the conference had more parity as all the games would have more suspense and build-up.

It used to be Hanover domination, then MSJ, now there are three teams with a solid shot at the playoffs.

Franklin drops from 14 to 28 in the d3football poll.

My friend; I hate to say this, but...how can your Irish beat the teams they did, then lose to Michigan State?  Granted Michigan is down this year, however, Michigan State is not that good either (actually, I think MSU is really an average team as usual).  As for Northwestern, it is great to see them off to the 5-0 start, yet it remains to be seen "what goes" when they start playing the real good competition in the Big Ten  .

At least FC is still mentioned!! Now Defiance won't need to worry as much this weekend.  LOL   Seriously if any of the DC folks want to stop by our tailgate for a cold beer and some food send me an email or let me know via this board. We will be there before, after, and during halftime.

I hear you there. I am not even going to look at my account today after the drop in the market yesterday. At least my new money being invested is buying cheaper stock at this time.

[SaintsFAN]

Same here, KYGrizz....same here. 

I probably won't look at it until I'm ready to retire... and hope for the best.

The Bungles just signed Cedric Benson - he should fit right in there.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

[SaintsFAN]

real desperate...part of his problem in Chicago was a lack of committment to getting in shape.  I wonder if he passed a physical first... had to..

Kevin, I'll be by sometime to grab that book. I've been busy with school, football, and my own grad program this week. It's been a long week already.

I also looked up that kid and you weren't kiddin.

[SaintsFAN]

No worries--- there's no chance that I'm going to use it.  So, it will be there.

And you thought my story about "the break-in and scare" tactic was crazy??  Now you see why pops put us in action for him.

[Adam Sayer]

I still think thats nuts.

Big Weekend for MSJ this week. They need to bounce back and show everyone the loss has been forgotten.

Nice artical about Trine in around the nation.  Glad to see the HCAC schools were so helpful in boosting Trine's reputation in DIII. 
On a downside it was sad to see that the HCAC dropped in the conference rankings.  Dropped from 20th to 22nd & surpassed by the MIAA.

My high school age son has one of the FC players as his student teacher.  He told my son that the bus ride home from Trine was rather "unpleasant" last week for the Griz.
