Ah, but Danny Boy, that'd be a 2-7 record...

Which I could see if you beat OWU this week... ;)

You guys are really putting dents in our hope a horrible Depauw goes into Monon to beat dabash. With your math, we might be .500.

I hope we don't expose any of our secret weapons agaisnt OWU or Austin  ::)  This is a transition year anyway, so let's scrap the next 3 while scheming ways to get past the wally defense.

So what is everyone's favorite/despised Monon play?  I'm only going to include plays witnessed since my arrival at DePauw (fall '97) so I'd have to go with the '99 McGuffey bomb TD (he was probably our fastest player and we knew he was endzone-bound as soon as he snagged that beautiful arching spiral) or the Havercamp 47 yd fieldgoal as time expired.  The most horrific play I ever saw was the Hail Mary in '01.  That still makes me ill. 

And if it were a category, I'd label the '00 "grenade toss" as the "best intentional penalty" in rivalry history ;)

Really?  A transition to what exactly?

Danny Boy, B Bear

Hope all is well.  Will arrive Friday evening into Indy.  No RV this year.  84 grad will have a tent set up in lower lot with plenty of food and drink.  Look forward to seeing you guys.  I am assuming you will have same RV venue as always.  Will look for you on Friday night in the Peeler lot.  Joe

The most despised plays:  By DePauw - Havercamp's field goal; By  Wabash - dropped TD pass in last seconds of game in 1974 loss to DePauw 15-12 (first Monon Bell game that I attended)

Favorite play:  Would have to be the 2001 Hail Mary (though I did not see that one in person); a close second would be the annual stealing of the Tiger Tail and running across the field to the Wabash side.  The DPU mascot stopped wearing a tail sometime in the late 70's (at least at Monon Bell games).  Now, I think Wabash would either suspend or kick out of school anyone who pulled a stunt like that.  Times change but at least the game has stayed the same.

Joe, looking forward to it.  We should arrive before sundown on Friday and we'll be aiming for our usual spot.  Have a safe voyage.

Sorry to hear about the RV.  You traveling alone?

My favorite play? It could be when coach Nick took out an effective senior RB after the first quarter (was it David Schubert?) during one of the Snow Bowl games to put in his regular starter, and Wabash made an incredible goal line stand and won. Was that 1995?

Oh, and any time Wabash is in the victory formation in the Bell game. Those are my favorite plays!

ahhhh....I hop on in mid-Monon form here.  Seems like I'm just in time.  Wally Wabash refers to the same old story himself.  Three posts later I see something about DePauw's women being on Biggest Loser....same talk, different year.  Meanwhile, most other Wallies claim that DPU women came to an all-male school on weekends to play tummy sticks.  Still haven't met one DPU chick that wants to admit that claim.  Just another year it seems like to me.

Let's talk football.  Yeah, the matchup appears to be one sided, no doubt.  Though we had more wins, kind of reminds me of 1998 when DaBash simply needed just 1 more win to complete an undefeated storied season and cruise into the playoffs.  How'd that work out??  Stunned at the half...35-0, crushed by a final of 42-7.  Let's assume nothing in this game, nothing in this rivalry.  Looking forward to seeing you ladies in mid-November

Can't wait to see you Fripp. We should have the same crew, in the same spot this year. Stop on over.

Yeah, that afternoon sucked.  Probably didn't suck quite as bad as having your undefeated season blow up 47-0.  Wabash has never taken a beatin' like that in this game, so we wouldn't know what that kind of embarrassment is like.
