northwest has Pinkel'd it away 2 years straight!

Shoalzie · Post by **Shoalzie** » Sat Dec 08, 2007 12:32 am

8:00 local start...that'll be different. How's the weather been down in Missouri?

Different cast of characters from last year. Iciek takes off right where Finnerty left off. Solid passer that doesn't turn the ball over much and can move when he's pressured. Just a sophomore...he's only going to get better.

Horn is the main weapon...he's the leading receiver and returns kicks. He's a transfer from Northwestern. Trent is the leading receiver of those coming back from the last year's team. Smolen is a nice duel threat in the air but also is the second leading rusher on the team. The main running back Berezik is a freshman and is averaging right around 90-100 yards a game. It's the typical GVSU team...balanced offense and solid defense. Very experienced defense with 7 seniors and 2 juniors in the starting lineup.

Should be a good one...best of luck to your guys!

THE DRIVE FOR 5!

That running back at Northwest is a stud.........what's his name, Omer or something.

Damn fine runner.

The Bearcats have a stronger SoS, thus GVS having to play on the road. NW bitchslapped Chadron State last week, which was a bit of a surprise.

Btw, does GVS travel by bus? If so, good luck driving thru a freaking ice storm. Assuming they make it on time, they'll be totally stressed and worn out from that road trip. That sucks for them, and it's going to be an even looonger ride back home after getting punked (crosses fingers) by NW.

Say goodbye to that 40 game winning streak, beyotches. Methinks they'll be even more pissed afterwards.

War Wagon · Post by **War Wagon** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 12:28 am

I know that e. If they had any sense, they beat the weather, arrived last night, and are well rested. Wait... I doubt they have a motel large enough in da'ville to hold such a contingent.

They probably spent the night in St. Joe.

I don't think I ever mentioned this, but my brother actually holds a degree from NW and even taught there for awhile. I've spent many a day up there visiting, and my mom damn near bought a house there when she wanted to get me out of the old North East KC 'hood.

They recruited my daughter pretty hard for softball, but she said she didn't want to go to a "party school", which I guess they must have that reputation.

Nice town, Maryville.

KC Scott · Post by **KC Scott** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 12:34 am

OK - let's all jump on the Bearcat wagon for a night.

One thing that probably messed up GVSU's SoS was having their game at Ashland cancelled and they never made it up.

90 minutes to kickoff...

hey E

they need a big game from the rb, it seems no matter whos at Qb, they make that one bad error to lose in championship game!

Only championship the state has a chance for is NWMS

9:07 chat much?

War Wagon · Post by **War Wagon** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 2:22 am

Brutal playing conditions, just fucking miserable Missouri weather.

Shoalzie · Post by **Shoalzie** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 2:37 am

Weather isn't too poor that teams won't be able to pass. If it deteriorates though, gonna be concerned with containing Omon.

Nice stop by the Bearcats but still good to get the first points on a long drive.

Shoalzie · Post by **Shoalzie** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 2:41 am

Your boys better hang onto the ball...I've seen the Lakers try several times to rip it out. It worked once already.

War Wagon · Post by **War Wagon** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 2:50 am

NW had best stop missing open field tackles and not start anymore plays 5 yards deep in the backfield.

I'd also find that TE more often.

Shoalzie · Post by **Shoalzie** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 2:52 am

Nice run but crappy tackling...

Mr T · Post by **Mr T** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 2:55 am

Sorry to show up late...

But you do know you got to drink everytime they say "at this level"

FUCK GV!!!

BEAT THEIR ASS NWMST!!!!

Mr T · Post by **Mr T** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 2:57 am

BTW, VSU beat CAL* earlier today 28-24.

*Yep, I am surprised mTool didnt come in here with pictures.

Cal University of Penn aka CUP

Mr T · Post by **Mr T** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 3:00 am

Both GV and NW suck at kicking

Kind of ironic with App State will be playing a team wearing blue and yellow with a winged helmet in the national title game...

Not much of a pass rush either...

Didnt think of that.

Atleast that game will be shown on a normal station.

AppSt looking to do what only one other scholarship football team has done. Win three in a row. UNA is the only team to do it, 93-95.

GV also trying to three-peat

KC Scott · Post by **KC Scott** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 3:04 am

It would be nice to have that "quick reply" thing right about now

When you got the best line in D2 that kinda happens

Mr T · Post by **Mr T** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 3:10 am

Dropped INT.

Wow...NWMST just not capitalizing.

You got to make those big plays to take down GV

KC Scott · Post by **KC Scott** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 3:25 am

4th & 3 - they go 5 wide and you only rush 3?

Fucking Stupid

That was a beautiful thing.

Rack North West Missouri State and those dedicated fans.

Rack the ESPN crew for bringing that game into my nice warm living room.
