Don't be surprised if the Norseman don't play a close game against Scecina or win. Northfield looks better and better every week. Scecina doesn't see the triple option on a regular basis. Could cause them fits on Friday night.

I'll never forget the year were there and the ref stood over the ball until the defense and chains were ready....maybe this was the same year. I couldn't belive what I was seeing.

Sometimes the ref crew is the problem. In a GS/HH not too long ago in the pre game meeting with the refs I told the white hat, "this offense moves quick, we watch you before we move, so don't forget to signal first down to us." His response was that it didn't matter because they can't move any faster than him. But, you aren't wrong. There are some crews that appear to have been doing this as long as they have had the program. This is why you should run 2 clips.

Memorial vs Bosse game has been moved to Harrison

https://reason.com/2026/09/22/college-sports-dont-need-saving-here-are-7-myths-fueling-the-protect-college-sports-act/ Yep, nothing will change. Another lame attempt by Congress.

Dwenger is down to the #4 Tailback. Hopefully Campbell returns soon.

Kings 54-7 Tough break for the Norsemen. Scecina handily. I’d love to pick Northwestern.. But I can’t pull the trigger. 62-52 Braves. This game might take 4 hours. If going to the Peru at Rochester game, get there on time or you might miss it. Give me the Z’s after a focused week of practice…24-20 Manchester over Southwood. 34-8 Wabash over Elwood in 8-man. 32-12

Caston at Culver. Caston wins with a big game with North Judson looming North Judson gets home early with the clock running in the second half at Triton Same goes for Pioneer at SC. While not perfect by any means… After week 5, Sagarin comes into view enough to have a bit of idea when trying to predict games. Jeff’s computer likes Winamac by 10. NM’s defense has been pretty okay against some good competition. Pioneer had to at least work for their scores. I’m just not sure they’re good enough up front to move the ball consistently against Winamac. I see a fairly close/low scoring game. Tough to pick against Winamac in this one with the season momentum of each team to this point.

Oh, and on a related topic. Much like our politcal leaders, there needs to be an age limit....or test...or licencing or something. When the crew is so old and decrepit that they can't keep up with the pace of the game. Unfortunately, it is time to hang it up.

I know it can be frustrating for them when you get ID10T coaches who constantly step on the chains. I mean, how hard is it man!

Well, I'll say that my guy was just as much at fault, so there is that.....

Any Indiana Northern States followers on here anymore? I’ve been basically talking to myself the last few INSC threads. Conference game of the week with the only 2 teams unbeaten in conference is Jimtown vs Tippecanoe Valley. Jimtown surprised everyone outside of Baugo with their dismantling of Bremen last week. TV is solid all around and should be a great, physical football game. I’m going Tippy Valley in a close one. Bremen @ Glenn. I don’t think Bremen was as good as their 4-0 start against cupcake teams suggested. But they’re better than they showed against Jimtown last week. Coaching turnover is the only thing I can come up with Glenn isn’t any better. They have the athletes to be much better than what they’ve shown the last few years. I’m taking Bremen. LaVille @ Knox. Knox finally got their first win of the year and they’ve found something the last 2 weeks offensively as they switched to a more under center Power I look. They won’t lose many more this season and 2A teams are going to have trouble with their physicality come tournament time. LaVille is struggling mightily and Knox wins this one with a running clock.

Before Lincoln left the SIAC, I had really hoped the SIAC could be split into two divisions - 5 EVSC and the 5 Others. It does Bosse, Harrison and Central no good to get throttled every week except when they play each other. And it isn't fun or helpful for the opponents either (except being able to rest players). I cannot imagine the challenge a coach faces trying to get players to come out and then getting clobbered each Friday. After this week the Tigers are going to find out what we're made of... Two tough games back to back.

TRC Pick'em Standings Tightendopenagain - 24 Muda - 24 Gonzo - 24 Fran - 18

Week 5, halfway there, and some teams are living on a prayer... Attica @ North Vermillion - It's survive and keep playing for the Ramblers. Surely they have some classes coming up to help re-solidify the program? The Falcons play hard, but found out last week they have a long way to go. This week, they shouldn't struggle too much, but this was a close game last year. 42-12 Covington @ Parke Heritage - I hate to say it, but the Trojans might be in the same boat as the Ramblers. Again, they do some good things, but things on the field often get out of hand quickly, and they don't recover well. The Woolfs are licking their wounds from last week. They scored plenty, but couldn't keep pace. (They gave up 7 passing touchdowns?) This week should be a reset for them. 35-18 Fountain Central @ Seeger - The Mustangs are slowly righting the ship and should be hitting on all cylinders come tournament time. They could make this game interesting. The Patriots may have secured the 2nd spot after last week's offensive output. I'm curious to see the results, but I think the home team wins. 42-28 Riverton Parke @ South Vermillion - The Panthers did Panthers things last week. (OL scoring TDs?) Their D is becoming fine tuned. (I heard NV only had 44 Yards of total offense) And a fourth different running back had a multi TD game. In Clinton, the Junior Visors took awhile to get going last week. They can't afford to do that this week. The questions are: Can the Junior Visors move the ball on the Panthers? And can they stop the Panthers from scoring? Answer to both: NO SIR. 48-6

Before anyone gets any ideas.... That wasn't me. I watched that game on the livestream from Janko's Little Zagreb in Btown the night before IU beat Michigan at the Rock... Unfortunately, every school has its fair share of idiots and in places where fans can get close to the playing field (or even to tower cam guys) this kind of crap happens.

Week 6 in the TRC, big game in Bunker Hill with the only two unbeaten teams in the conference will square off. I will post standings later in the week. Who ya got?
