It's on fellas.  So where are DePauw's points coming from next week?  It's hard to figure out, I know.

NO BETTER WEEK IN SPORTS!!! 

to say DePauw has issues on offense is an understatement after starting our 4th different quarterback today....but hey, they've fought adverse situations and injuries all year to find a way to win 3 straight to get to .500 and bring us back to respectability.....

Started three QBs in 2007 and went to a regional final.  Started three in 2009 and went to the playoffs.  Three isn't four, but that's still reaching deep for QBs.  There's not a good excuse to be 4-4 after a 9-2 playoff season.

The way the Wabash D played against Witt, you'd better get QB 5 ready...

our defense played pretty damn well today, too....as they have all year.  I do agree that there's no excuses to be 4-4 after a 9-2 playoff season...we graduated 33 seniors....what's that tell you about what we had and what's come in?? 

either way - we're not the 1-8 team you all thought you were going to get next week

You're always the 1-8 team we think you are.   :)

I seriously question whether or not DePauw's offense can manufacture a scoring drive.  It's going to a be real challenge.  DePauw's defense is good enough to make this thing a ballgame.  If Wabash gets to 14 and doesn't turn it over, DePauw probably won't win.  But, I do think if DePauw can turn Belton over a time or two, particularly with a short field, this thing can be a ballgame in the fourth. 

DePauw's defense did a number on a good football team today.  Today's game was the kind the defense should have played all year.  The offense just kept putting them in bad situations in recent weeks.  I'm at least optimistic about the defense's chance of keeping DePauw around with a chance to win.

man, Wes - giving us a real shot, huh?  we've mentioned it thousands of times here....it's a game of unpredictabililty.

as for wally - you're always the overrated team we think you are  :)

How good is a 5-4 team really? It's obviously the best win DPU has had this year, but winning 7-3 in a throwaway game isn't exactly a statement.
