Game day: Round of 16

We’re a little more than an hour from kickoff on the three Eastern Time Zone games Saturday, in Alliance, Ohio; Crawfordsville, Ind.; and Cortland, N.Y.

D3football.com will be coming to you live from the home of the Red Dragons with audio at noon, and will cap the day with a broadcast of UW-Whitewater at Willamette at 3 p.m. The defending national champions and the West No. 1 seed have the “airwaves” to themselves in a broadcast that’s not online elsewhere, and doesn’t feature live stats or video (that we know of).

If one of the four Central Time Zone games is what you’re after, we’ll be around to chat and provide updates about those too.

Links to video (from Millsaps and Monmouth), live stats (from Mount Union, Wabash, Mary Hardin-Baylor and North Central) and audio from all eight games are on our scoreboard page.

The floor is open. Have at it.

  1. Maybe LL gets a little bit more respect for us being in the game for so long?

    I don’t think the LL was really under-respected before, do you?

  2. Wow. Franklin’s kickoff goes out of bounds, North Central gets a 27-yard pass and an 18-yard run from Sulo to score with 21 seconds left in the half.

    Franklin’s lead was short lived. It’ll be 21-17 at the half, i guess.

  3. Is it time to re-assess the Wabash season? They went 7-0 vs NCAC, and 3-0 versus the UAA, but are in the process of going 0-2 versus the rest of the world?

  4. We’ve got four blowouts on the board, and two one-score games from the 1 p.m. EST starts … Monmouth-Wartburg could go either way (28-14)

  5. Yeah got ugly after 5 minutes in the first 3rd quarter… MUC proved why they are the best of the best, good luck to them… They just wear you down and wear you down… Great team…

  6. Millsaps has taken the opening kickoff and is driving on W&J. W&J holds after a bad snap in the shotgun causes a loss.

    Millsaps get a FG about 26 yd 12:30 left. Millsaps 20-14.

  7. CState,

    I don’t know, you guys are pretty much on the same level as Hobart… If you can sustain long drives and actually score- which Hobart didn’t do- they drove the ball and couldnt convert in the end you might make it a game… You guys gotta try to give MUC as much 3 and outs as possible, if you keep giving them chances they will wear you out and capitilize without a second thought… Kmic didn’t lose a single yard rushing on like 37 Carries, he’s a beast… You might not be able to stop him, but try to contain him… Put pressure on Micheli but make sure your ends cage him in, what he can do with his legs is incredible… We now wish the Red Dragons the best of luck, hopefully you can do better than Hobart!

  8. Millsaps finally stops a W&J drive that bgan on the W&J 10. Presidents seem to be taking the momentum. W&J leads 21-20. End of 3rd Q.

  9. W&J holds just outside the red zone.

    Millsaps to try a FG 38 yd attempt with 7:00 minutes left. Wide left. W&J 21-20 6:57 left.

  10. Swallow has done a great job of running the clock on the current drive. W&J moving under 3 minute left. W&J ball on the Major 13. 2:25 left. Jones has run to the Millsaps 7. First down. Jones 7 yd TD 1:36 left. PAT is good. W&J 28-20.

  11. Goranson sacks Yordi for a big loss, Scots takeover at their own 40 leading 28-24 with 7 minutes left.

  12. Millsaps starts on their own 44 after a squib kick. 1:32 left.

    1 — long incompletion (mis-communication).
    2 — Savage catches for 5. first timeout. at their own 49 1:16 left.
    3 — Long incompletion.
    4 — Joseph is held short of the first down.

    1:01 left with two Millsaps time outs left.

  13. congratulations w&j…i cant believe that i doubted that they could get it done…..hard to believe that the defense held joseph and company to 20 points and only 3 points in the second half…I will never doubt them again….good luck against UMHB…they will again need to play flawless football….they have many ghosts on that field….

  14. Cortland: Hobart kept it close, (rather reasonable) for almost 3 quarters. Go in there with an attitude, as MUC will take no pity on any opponent. ie. They will keep scoring TDs until the final gun any way they can, passing if need be no matter what the score is. Yes, they will run it up. Try to keep their O off the field and as dc said, contain Kmic, as you can’t stop him. Go Red Dragons!

  15. UMHB is up 46 – 14 on Wesley…should be an intersting match-up next week against W & J…familiar foes
