It seems like the Division III football offseason is interminable. And nothing else is a good substitute.
That’s why you need to follow the game today, no ifs, ands or buts.
We get that you may not all be in love with the matchup, but you won’t get to see another Division III football game until next September. So let’s get our fix with matchup No. 6 of UW-Whitewater and Mount Union. The live chat is below!

Well, the day many have been dreading will be dawning here in a few hours. Unless you’re a UW-Whitewater or Mount Union fan, in which case it’s more like wild anticipation. It’s the last chance for anyone to derail a purple-on-purple matchup for the sixth year in a row in the Stagg Bowl.
Bethel and Wesley stand in the way. It’s a great day because it’s the one day a year there’s live video of a Mount Union home football game, and there is live video at Wesley for the second consecutive week.
The folks on the call will be familiar to longtime D3football.com followers. Frank Rossi of D3football.com and Brandon Stewart will call the action from Alliance, Ohio, while D3football’s Gordon Mann and Keith McMillan will have the call from Dover, Del., on NCAA.com.
I’ll be at home buried under a foot of snow again in Minneapolis. However, this week it was planned. And it allows me to set up on both screens and watch both games. Plus I’ll be DVR-ing the Mount Union/Bethel game on DirecTV’s SportsTime Ohio feed.
Opening the floor, and it will be kept up with this week. Sorry about last week, between the traveling and calling the game.
As of this hour, I don’t even know where I’ll be, whether that’s at North Central/UW-Whitewater or St. Thomas/Bethel. My original flight out of MSP to O’Hare has already been canceled and my next shot is 8 a.m. tomorrow.
But at least I should be assured of seeing something.
We’re throwing it open early Saturday, just in case I get stuck in an airport somewhere.
