Game Day from the semifinals

Well, it’s a fairly warm and really windy day here in Belton, Texas. Mount Union is already out to a 10-0 lead in Alliance.

Last night I was here for the UMHB pep rally, and I was amused to hear the … let’s call him the MC of the event, though he came off more like a preacher in tone and really fired people up. But I was intrigued by the claim of lack of respect by D3football.com. Guess they didn’t see our Triple Take this week.

Throwing the floor open. I’m dialing up here so I’m not going to be commenting much.

  1. Kmic starting to get some steam….but Micheli’s arms and legs the story so far in Alliance…..17-0 in the 2nd. Wheaton offense had some chances – fumble, also dropped first down pass last series….

  2. I’m not able to get the cbssports.com video going – get to the page with the “WATCH” links, nothing happens when I try either game, tried FF and IE both. Any ideas, anyone?

  3. Mount D allowing Norris to get too comfortable back in the pocket…throwing for good chunks. Wheaton driving… :26 left in 1st half….

  4. yeah, I went through the whole Silverlight thing. I’m getting the game page where you have the “watch!” buttons, but when I click ’em nothing happens. At least I’ve got Pat on the audio, that helps.

  5. Yep, I too have silverlight installed and verified that it’s the latest and greatest. Yet another MS technology that doesn’t work well, apparently.

    UMHB better wake up, they have been none too impressive so far.

  6. Forget the video, I’ll just listen to it. I know that works and I don’t want to take the time to muck about with the NCAA site.

    Does the NCAA just hate Macs or something?

  7. This game could be a lot closer. Wheaton O with plenty of chances through the air. Mount playing well, not saying that…but opportunities have been there.

  8. Cmon Whitewater, lets take it too em… We don’t play well in the 3rd Qtr so I want to see atleast a 10-14 pt lead at the half.

  9. if people are complaining about a lack of respect from you, rightful or not, it means they crave your respect. At least that’s how I choose to look at it.

    Ron, I’ve had trouble getting the video in multiple browsers. I really think a standard format needs to emerge so fans don’t have to load new stuff & go through this each week. It’s not like it’s your first time watching a game online.

  10. 2008 MUC = 2007 NE Patriots
    2008 UWW = 2007 NY Giants

    I just get a feeling that UWW will shut down MUC again in the finals

  11. Who are you directing the respect post at Keith? I didn’t understand the comment.

    UMHB seems to have solved the UWW offense for now. They had better get the offense going however. UWW is pretty scary – if they are this good with this many new players, how great will they be in 2009?

  12. UMHB seems to be getting things back on track after a very poor start, starting to find some small holes to run through and getting some first downs. Near midfield as the second quarter starts and they’ll have a stiff wind at their back.

  13. I’m predicting a 28-19 “upset” win for UMHB after that last drive. If UMHB makes the Warhawks beat them through the air, we’re in trouble. The QB position for UWW is way down from the past 3-4 years.

  14. How in the world does MUC get caught off guard on another fake punt. Doesn’t say alot for the special teams. Wheaton knocking on the door down 21.

  15. It would appear that the video problems are fixed? I just tried to load it up in Firefox and got it on the first try.

    The feed seems to be a little jumpy but I am not sure if that’s me or the feed itself. I was told earlier that they are transmitting over a wireless mobile broadband setup so that may have something to do with it.

  16. 70 more yards for Kmic and a TD on the next drive, now at 233 on the day as MUC extends their lead to 38-10.

    UMHB gets a 38 yd fg and now lead 10-5. Noack in at QB the last drive for the Cru.

  17. Guys…

    Just found this site. Went to cbssports.com and found some XXL link and went to it…Downloaded Silverlight without trouble. Can’t find a link to the Whitewater at MH-Baylor game. Do I need to pay a subscription fee before I see anything? Sorry for all of the questions, I’m doing my best here. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  18. Coppage is back! Glad to hear it. Big spot for his first carry, picking up a needed 1st down for UWW.
