They are also tops in the nation in total D...scoring D... sacks...turnovers...rush D...Etc.

Statistically.

Re: Slippery Rock at Notre Dame College

Everyone on the PSAC forum knows that the MEC is a one team conference and since that team didn't even make the playoffs, this game shouldn't even be close.

Everyone? That's a blanket statement.

Everyone? That's a blanket statement.

Right? I didn't say one negative thing about NDC or the MEC in my initial post (nor have I ever on this forum) and the guy acted as though I asked what the chances are that we will host a national semifinal game since we have a glorified bye this weekend. Sheesh. :bulgy-eyes:

Re: Slippery Rock at Notre Dame College

I said the same thing about West Chester leading up the PSAC title game. While I tend to agree with you, I'm staying quiet on that front this week. I can still taste the crow I had to eat a couple weeks ago haha

Re: Slippery Rock at Notre Dame College

Unless you live close to NDC, you should be fine. My undoing was that I live and work less than an hour from West Chester and ran my mouth all week to co-workers and friends who went there haha

Re: Slippery Rock at Notre Dame College

SRU looked good, QB did what he had to do and the Defense did their part. Good luck, I think if you play the game hard you should do well. I'll be watching again.

Re: Slippery Rock at Notre Dame College

I think NDC is alot like Assumption last year, everyone sold them short, thinking they were not as athletic all - around as the PSAC teams. BUT, they were great at the intangibles, they played smart, were opportunistic, knew what they could do and what they couldn't, took advantage of the other teams mistakes. The difference in NDC's win over Hillsdale was the 2 turnovers - Rock won't score as much against them as they did New haven, and they will make more mistakes. NDC won't run as easily against rock. All comes down to which Rock team shows up, and for how long. I'm picking Rock in a close one, but if the team that got blown out by West Chester shows up, they lose.

Re: Slippery Rock at Notre Dame College

Wonder how many times over the years Shepherd heard on this board that they'd never seen the athletes like they would against a PSAC team?

SRU has played very well two straight weeks. It's very hard to play very well three straight weeks.

That said, if I was betting real money, ... SRU -7

Re: Slippery Rock at Notre Dame College

You should take them lightly. They play in the MEC and everyone here knows the MEC is not a good football conference. I mean, SRU was the second best team in the PSAC this year so they should beat the best the MEC has to offer by at least three TD's.

OK, and the PSAC should have been swept out of the playoffs.. If it wasnt for Post having way too many injuries to overcome (TE playing tackle, 3rd string corner, back up Wr, back up safety, and others) then the PSAC would have had 0 teams. Every team deals with injuries but it was too much last week to overcome for them. You shouldn't act like the PSAC should roll over every conference when they were 4 points away from all losing in the first round. Also even with all the injuries, Post was a 74 yard TD pass on a 3rd string corner or 2 ints on the goalline of SRU away from winning the game.

Champ: Boat was being extremely sarcastic to make a point. That was all satire.

NDC is much better than that Assumption team athletically. They play in a hot bed of elite football talent in Cleveland Ohio. A bunch of New England yuppie spawns hardly have the same football pedigree

When the key word in your argument is IF ... it's not going too far. Jus' sayin'.
