Solving the Blugolds
It was hard to tell whether UW-Eau Claire belonged in the playoff field or not, at least when you looked at the published playoff selection criteria. But at least after last week's road win at St. Norbert, seeded higher by the NCAA but ranked lower by D3football.com, it's hard to say the Blugolds aren't playoff quality. Just don't look at the stat sheet, with a quarterback who completed less than half of his passes and an offense that gets outgained by nearly 60 yards per contest. More on the Blugolds' puzzling season.. North Carolina Wesleyan fits the bill as a Cinderella. The Battling Bishops may have made themselves into a household name with their overtime win at Washington and Jefferson, but of course, it's not the first big opponent they have faced, nor will face. Marcus Fitzsimmons has more in a Road to Salem feature. Plus, don't forget this week's earlier features about New Jersey, Wabash and Curry.
