Around the Nation: Big games and close calls

We might question whether some teams are as good as we think, and some Top 25 voters might be asking the same questions. Other teams are right where everyone thought they would be. And in some places, there’s new excitement and new life for football. We look at those teams, plus, which are the teams on the rise? What key highlights happened below the radar? Pat and Keith answer those questions, plus hand out their game balls, on this week’s Around the Nation Podcast.

The Around the Nation Podcast is a weekly conversation between Pat Coleman and Keith McMillan covering the wide range of Division III football. It drops on Monday morning weekly throughout the season.

Around the Nation Podcast: Getting a fresh start

Some of the teams getting a fresh start this week are ones that didn’t play in Week 1, such as three of the top five teams in the country. Others are young programs who picked up signature wins, while even others are established programs that have been down on their luck. We look at those teams, plus, which are the teams on the rise? What was the most surprising result? Pat and Keith answer those questions, plus hand out their game balls, on this week’s Around the Nation Podcast.

Linfield upset the apple cart with its big win on Saturday, knocking off a UMHB program that had been a play or two from making the Stagg Bowl the past two years. Plus Wartburg, John Carroll and Hobart each survived second-round squeakers.

Pat and Keith summarize the high points of all eight games, give their analysis and look ahead to next week’s quarterfinals. That and much more in this week’s Around the Nation Podcast.
