Carleton won the Goat against St Olaf today, and here's a great column from Reusse earlier this week about their QB.


Beat wishes to the young man.

Bethel wins 17-10 against St. Johns in the class of the titans in the MIAC. It was a solid defensive battle. Biggest moments of the game was when St. John was 1st and Goal from the 3 and couldn't punch it in despite getting to the 3 inch line on 1st down. Then Bethel on 3rd and long, inside the 10 yard line ends up throwing a 43 yard completion. They eventually went on to score the game winning touchdown on that drive.

I am sure these 2 will meet again in the MIAC championship game.

I don’t believe there is one any longer?

No question. There's a large gap between Bethel/SJU and everyone else in the MIAC nowadays.

Just short of the halfway point, surprised to see Carleton looking down on everyone but Bethel, though the schedule will ramp up (but not until November).

Equally surprised to see GAC looking up at everyone in the MIAC (except tied with Hamline).
