I wish I could go to the game but work has priorities. The cost of the charter flight to Whitewater is only $390.00 round trip, it was almost $900.00 to Wesley. I think that’s a great deal especially to see these two high ranked outstanding football teams.

I wish the cru good luck and they may need it. If the game was at Belton then UMHB would win a close game. Since the game will be in Whitewater, I think the Warhawks will pull it off. The difference will be qb play and field conditions not weather conditions.

UWW has more of a balanced attack and will keep UMHB guessing. If UWW tries to run all day then they will lose as no one can run on UMHB including MUC. UMHB’s option attack may cause them to turn the ball over some and if you do that against UWW up there, you are in a world of hurt. However, I hope the cru wins so we can keep playing and go to the Stagg.

If I were a betting man this is what I would throw a wager on.

UWW-41-UMHB 28, MUC 52-BETHEL 21

So I scouted it out and if, now I’m not assuming anything, but if Mount Union and Whitewater were to play again for the Stagg Bowl I found out what would be the easiest for both teams. Instead of Salem (where I had a wonderful experience last year) which is a long way from Whitewater, the geographical center would be around Goshen, IN. It is 4 hours and 13 minutes from Whitewater and 4 hours and 45 minutes from Alliance. Here is the stadium that they have there. If they added a little bit more seating they probably could host it http://ifca.zebras.net/ifca/candler/region2/goshen.htm
Sorry that it won’t link, you can copy and paste it. Parking looks like it could be a problem, but it’s almost equal in distance from both schools.
Now just so you all know this is a joke and I know that Salem is a great host and probably will hold onto the Stagg for quite a while. But if Mount Union and Whitewater continue to make it to the championship, who knows?

Actually i think that UMHB is a good team. Probably the third or fourth best team in D3. Unfortunately for them there is a huge gap between them and the next tier…

Things still look good for a ball game with temps around the low thirties with a chance of a rain/sleet mix. I don’t see Mount putting up more then 40 points unless Bethel loose their head and puts the ball into the air. If they make that mistake I have to add at least twelve points for the Mount defense. I make the final Mount 52-7. See you at the game, I’m that Steeler Jerk.

not giving UMHB any credit there, are you? that’s a pretty big margin.
