Since you failed to include probably the most important piece of information, the game is today at 3:30pm.

This is the sixth straight year these two teams have met in the championship game, with Mount Union winning holding a 3-2 edge in those games. This will be Mount's 14th appearance in the Stagg Bowl and they will be going for their 11th National Championship. MU and WW have traded titles back and fourth the past four years and WW won last year, so this should be Mount's year to win it again.

Looks like both backup QB's will be playing. Most are prediction Wisc to win, but most betting sites have Mount Union being favored. The winner usually scores more than 30pts, so I'm taking the over on this one. Go Mount Union.

That first defensive stance from Mount was impressive. Been watching Mount since 2004 and that was the most swarming they've ever been against the run. Piloto on the other hand has been pretty sucky so far. I think any of us could play D against him and have a shot at picking him off the way he is staring at the intended receiver.

Piloto is catching fire throwing accurate passes with Whitewater players draped all over him. Just threw a deep TD to NFL bound Cecil Shorts for a 21-10 Mount Union lead.

Mount Union is really coming on strong. 21 unanswered points. Their D has come up pretty big today

Whitewater responds with a good drive led by their RB Coppage, close the gap to 21-17. It seems like Whitewater RB's always have solid championship games in comparison to Mount's. Outside of their first meeting when Nate Kmic went off we have always had issues running against them.

Mount Union with a huge missed opportunity on and incomplete pass on that screen. I'd like to see them put up some more before halftime but nevermind time to punt. Mount Union needs to hold them. If they allow them to even score a FG it could really swing any momentum Mount Union had gained.

Warhawks score to lead 24-21 with a minute left in the half. And the momentum shifts again...

Mount Union downs ball to go into halftiime. Should be a fun second half. Mount Unions Offense struggles and will need their Defense to step up and get a few turnovers to stay in this game.

Piloto with another pick. Jeremy Murray not able to run the ball. I miss Micheli and Kmic. Now Fechko from my hometown with a dumb penalty. Ugh

Cecil Shorts III moving from WR to play QB now. Used to be a QB at Mount his fresh/soph year before moving to WR. Piloto was channeling his inner Mike Jorris in this game.

24-21 UW-W, 5 minutes left, Mount ball.

Nice to see Murray from Martins Ferry out there.
