This is another good game day to be sitting in front of the virtual TV. I’m not entirely sure I will shell out $12 for the Linfield/Willamette game — and with our Adam Johnson on the scene in McMinnville, I know we’ll get a good perspective on the game anyway.
Tonight I’ll be watching the Wheaton/North Central game online. Still pondering what early game or games I’ll be following most closely this afternoon, but I’ll probably use one computer to surf through a bunch of games and the other to follow Otterbein/Capital or Whitewater/Stevens Point or the like.
Gordon Mann reports in from Williamsport, Pa., that the weather will have an impact on the Delaware Valley/Lycoming game. Lycoming still has grass, which is a couple years away from being in the minority. Just under half of Division III football fields have one of the various brands of infill artificial turf.
Where you’re at, I hope it’s mild and dry.
Yeah, sorry I couldn’t make it to the big showdowns with Oberlin and Frostburg State.
That’s the price you pay for playing the schedule you do; You can’t help the conference part of course, but when No. 7 North Central plays No. 4 Wheaton, you saw what it did to their ranking.
There’s a team about an hour or so to the Northwest that will be looking for a non-conference game in 2010. If W&J schedules it, I will come.
