Oh, I saw the play.  It was a whale of play by Thorsen, probably play of the week material it was so good.  Heaving the ball toward the end zone with no time left in the half makes it a hail mary.

Zach Zindquist (6'4" 240 TE) actually made the play, but yeah, definitely a Hail Mary play.   I think the QB threw it as far as he could and that's the only reason it didn't come down in the end zone.

I actually remember a Wabash tight end making a similar play in the Monon Bell game at the end? Was that Jake Knott era?

That's my bad, with an assist to the NCC broadcast crew who misidentified the receiver as "that Nordic monstrosity", which I laughed about.  I imagine it's hard to stay 100% straight laced during the big rivalry game.

Absolutely it was.  2001.  Knott rolled out, TE Ryan Short knocked the ball back into the end zone where WR Kurt Casper caught it for the winning score.  But I don't do the play justice.  Go ahead and watch it a dozen times right here.

Aaaah yes.  I remember it now. That was awesome.

Yeah we misidentified. Sorry about that. Apologies to Lindquist. HECK of a play.

No worries.  That was my first NCC broadcast- really good production.  You guys do a great job.

I enjoyed the NCC broadcast as well. I didn't get to that game until the 2nd half but it was high quality.

Hardly a misidentification if that's what you called Thorson, because Lindquist is a Nordic name as well.

I just submitted my ballot.  Man, what a mess the bottom half of the top 10 is now.  I had trouble talking myself into at least 4 of my top 10.  I hope the rest of you have better luck than I did!

Same here. Tough week to grade these teams.

I had a real hard time beyond the top 4.

I made 4 different drafts and must have sounded crazy to Mrs. L'il Giant talking to myself.

Albion and North Central now have a direct common opponent, which informs us a little better than the transitive comparison we have been attempting. Both of them played Trine at home.

Trine 7
North Central 41

Trine 55
Albion 51

Lotta fun action there.  Figuring out my SRFP as well...also, when you look at the D3 Top 25 and the others receiving votes section from last week, a whole bunch of those teams lost.
