DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Tailgate Forum Anybody Interested in the 'Guins,....??

Possible for an Ohio sweep of Division 1, 1-AA, and III (Mount Union) ,...again this year,....

The Penguins play James Madison on national TV (ESPN2) this evening.

Speaking of Guins, what ever happened to that guy?

Seems to me he was a Steeler fan,...?? Maybe he just gave upon us,... <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

GO OHIO!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

BTW, good luck to the Mentor Cardinals tonight vs Canton McKinley! Not college but the HS playoffs are in full swing!

MOUNT UNION PURPLE RAIDERS WIN TODAY!!!! Got word first hand <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> They will be facing Capitol next week........guess Capitol couldn't get enough from the last beating they took at the hands of the Purple Raiders. (yes GG that's for you <img src="/images/graemlins/naughtydevil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/saywhat.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />)

GO CAPITAL

MUCK FOUNT!!!

<img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

KMA <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> I have always and always will be a staunch supporter of Mount! (grew up here and had an older bro that played for em)

Sorry 'Bird, Capital is here in my "local" rooting area, but northeast Ohio is Home.

What a program.

I hate em... I'll cheer for them in the playoffs when not playing an OAC team... but hate em... I'm a BWC grad so it's engrained. I have gotten to see them play in the championship in Salem (grandparents live 5 min from the stadium)

It's all good Jay, cuz I know ya was just yankin' this old gal's chain. <img src="/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

Yeah - anytime an Ohio school or OAC school wins is good in my mind... but i remember getting thrashed byb Mount like 77-0 at half at home <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

but the best game was my freshman year when we were up on the hill and a girl from BWC stole the Mount flag... HUGE fight that I got stuck in the middle of - all 140lbs of me was trying to not get beat up too badly... I know 'beer' was at that game too! It was awesome.

GOOOOOOOOOOOO MENTOR!!!

Great job Penguins! James Madison looked tough.

I grew up in Boardman, which is a Youngstown suburb, so I always keep track of YSU. Nice job!

Woohooo!!!! WTG Penguins!

Whooo hooo..

I even got to watch the game...

My Crusaders' O looked like OSU-lite today! MUC better look out next week because this is the week Cap finally gets 'em. I can feel it!

(Yes, I'm running smack about a team we haven't beating in over 20 years, what about it?? <img src="/images/graemlins/rolleyes_devil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/saywhat.gif" alt="" />)

GO CRUSADERS!!! BEAT THE RAIDERS!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/naughtydevil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

C-A-P! C-A-P! C-A-P-I-T-A-L!

What I found completely and totally astonishing was Heacock came up with a game plan to throw the ball.

YSU is the # 5 rushing team in the nation,....JM # 4 AGAINST the run.

Where'd he get that idea,....?

Musta' had lunch with his old boss last week,....

He stated at halftime that JMU was defending the run, so he was passing to adjust to their defense...

I was kind of referring tounge-in-cheek that Heacock had a game plan that won the ball game, like his old mentor, Mr JT. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

That's my school. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Go Penguins!

The Guinnies got 'r done again this weekend,....next week's game vs. # 1 Appalachian State -- at their house -- is gonna be way too tough a draw though for YSU. Playoff run ends in Boone, NC. App State looked really good yesterday,....

s


woohooo wtg penguins!!!! I heard about them winning while I was at work......makes an awesome weekend.........Mount Union with another win over Capitol, Penguins win and THE BROWNS WIN!!!!!!!

BIG BUMP,....hey everybody, don't forget the Penguins are on national TV at 4 today. Just in case you're Jones'n for some football,...actually in a real playoff system too BTW.

BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!

This is not gonan be pretty,...but we'll give it a shot.

Chat is open to view the game and talk at the same time OoooRah!!!!

Not familiar with that, how does that work,...?? (I'm a computer novice)

Look at the links at the top of this page and you will see DawgTalkers Chat.....click on that and come on in and enjoy this tough game!

Go Oterbine! <img src="/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif" alt="" /> Oh thats right they suck <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

So, Ohio takes D-1 and D-III this year, that's pretty good,...

I forgot they were playing Appy when I talked to you yesterday.

Nobody is going to beat Appy. That team could give any DI school all they could handle and beat a prety good number of them.

As I always complain about the parochial schools, this is exactly why I always talk about "moving up" a notch. They should become a D-1 school. They really are good. YSU is just not the same without Tressel--not an excuse, just a reason,....my dogs, The Citadel, play in the same conference. We used to beat these guys up back in the late 70's, ....

Chattanooga is in the Southern as well, and at one time were on top of that league. Now, we barely manage 2 wins a year.

No way they can move up, the school and town is just too small to support more than they have. Boone, NC is a dinky town stuck in a hollow in the mtns. It isn't like Chattanooga or Charleston that could possibly make the switch. It is mostly 2nd retirement homes, rentals, and tourists who want fresh mtn air in the warmer months and to ski in the cold months. And those aren't really the demographics that put fans into seats to watch a football game. Retired people already have the teams they follow. They usually don't latch onto the local team in the area they decided to retire or visit a few weeks, months a year.

I think to move up you need a 40,000 seat stadium at minimum and have had to average 30-35,000 fans a game something like 3 out of the 5 preceding years.

They don't have a stadium that big nor could they ever meet the attendance requirements. If would require drawing nearly everybody with-in 30 miles to do that....and they probably already do capture about everybody inside that area who would consider going to games.

Well they could move up into the MAC with a 25,000 seat stadium.

Peden Stadium's attendance record I believe is 26,000. It hasn't filled up close to that since the OU/Pitt game.

I ain't all up to speed on the qualifiers to go D-1, I was just talking about the quality of play; it is worthy.
