Meador hits a 25 yard FG for a Wheaton 16-0 lead.

Meador kicking??

Meant Roche. Good catch.

Thought maybe enough of Roche and experimenting with Meador. Would be an interesting option to have a QB who can kick as well.

Meador with all day to throw, as a result he is picking Elmhurst apart. 1st and 10 Wheaton @ the Elmhurst 11.

Another Wheaton TD on a 2 yard run. Wheaton leads 23-0. Wow!!!

I expected a close game, thus far hasn't been the case. Elmhurst is explosive on offensive, so Wheaton can't relax.

Carthage taking it on the chin in Decator. Millikin leads 16-0 early in the second qtr. I guess my picking Millikin in the pick-ems is proving to be well reasoned.

Two LONG passes to Elmhurst TE (51 yards in 2 catches), a bunch of missed tackles by Wheaton. Elmhurst quick TD. Wheaton leads 23-7. That was a really, really quick TD by Elmhurst. Very easy.

If Wheaton lets down, Elmhurst will score a ton.

Another long Wheaton kick return. That is 4 returns of more that 50 yards in the past 2 weeks.

TD Wheaton. Meador to Hiben for 28 yards. 6'5" Hiben had huge height advantage over Elmhurst DB - 7-8 inches. Freshman WR is making an impact.

Another missed extra point for Wheaton. This wasn't Roche's fault, bad snap broke timing on kick. Wheaton leads 29-7.

1st punt of the game with 7:40 left in the half. Wheaton takes over at Elmhurst 45. 29-7 Wheaton.

Mugsy · October 08, 2011, 03:05:44 PM

IWU over NPU, 21-3.

Mugsy · October 08, 2011, 03:10:27 PM

18 yard TD pass, Meador to Watkins. Wide open. 3rd TD pass from Meador in 1st half.

36-7 Wheaton with just under 4 minutes left in half.

Tailgater · October 08, 2011, 03:11:50 PM

Carthage showing some life. Now trailing 16-13 with 36 seconds left in the half. Carthage will get the ball to start the second half.

Mugsy · October 08, 2011, 03:17:44 PM

Wheaton holds Elmhurst again. Elmhurst shanks a 12 yard punt. Wheaton takes over on their own 32 with 1:32 left in half. 36-7

Mr. Ypsi · October 08, 2011, 03:19:36 PM

IWU scores with 20 seconds left in the half. It will presumably be 28-3 at halftime.

Mr. Ypsi · October 08, 2011, 03:36:26 PM

I presumed correctly.

I'm listenig to Greg's broadcast from NPU. They do a very good job, but if anyone knows how to contact Greg during the game, they are getting serious background noise (sounds like wind on the mike?) which at times nearly drowns out the broadcast.

Tailgater · October 08, 2011, 03:38:04 PM

Carthage turnover on first play of the second half at their own 25. Not what they needed.
