ATN Podcast: Too soon to panic

St. John's
St. John’s got routed at home in Week 2, but it’s not over for the Johnnies yet.

That was a butt-kicking that St. John’s got, at home, on Saturday when UW-Eau Claire came in and beat the Johnnies 47-19. But although that loss is certainly demoralizing, as was Coe’s at Olivet Nazarene and even Wesley’s at Kean, this week isn’t the end of anyone’s season. Pat Coleman and Keith McMillan talk through what’s left in front of them and what teams with an early loss have cost themselves in this week’s Around the Nation Podcast.

Plus, many other teams and games are touched on — see the tags at the bottom for an idea of who is discussed.

ATN Podcast: Eliminated already

Eliminated from the postseason in Week 6? That’s where a handful of recent playoff teams and prominent playoff hopefuls find themselves this week. Meanwhile, there’s a handful of quiet unbeaten teams sitting under the radar. Why haven’t they gotten a chance?

We dig inside the box score to look at results for Mount Union and Mary Hardin-Baylor that might be seen as misleading, plus look at the big Week 6 upsets. And Pat hit the road this week for a pair of games, seeing something new at each stop: an unusual halftime attraction and a shot at redemption in the closing seconds at William Paterson while a senior quarterback gets asked to reinvent himself with five games left in his career at Merchant Marine.

Pat Coleman and Keith McMillan run it down in this week’s Around the Nation Podcast.

ATN Podcast: Couple upsets

Posted on by

There were a couple of upsets on Saturday, one practically unthinkable — yes, Grinnell, that’s you guys! — but the big winners of the first two weekends of Division III football were us, the fans.

Yes, that’s because we’ve been treated to a bunch of great early-season games, probably because few teams are willing to schedule the powers in the WIAC, NWC and ASC, so they are forced to play each other. Just look at the slate played by WIAC teams this past weekend for evidence.

Pat Coleman got to see the season opener for Mount Union, while Keith McMillan saw a D-III rivalry game more like Army-Navy than anything in Division III. They discuss those things and more in the Around the Nation Podcast.
