Interesting that the Johnnies still think they have something. Once again, they’ll get humbled by the time MIACs come around.
Macalaster is a scary good team but I still think they aren’t there yet as a team, and the odds of enough lowballers from other schools (Calvin, Lars, Graber, Bati, etc) can disrupt and dismantle the Scots.
Bethel-Gustavus is still the most interesting two team matchup in the conference, and , by only two points Bethel triumphed on Saturday at Jim Drews. Still, I can’t help but think that the Gusties aren’t racing at their full potential, and, even they’re no scorers can still be a driving factor in two weeks time. Compare that to the Royals, who have a much steeper drop off in talent after 5, and even steeper after 7 as they dip into mediocrity. Gustavus wins fair and square by 10 at MIAC.
Hamline-St. Mary’s: The Booty Bowl. If tanking worked in D3 cross, then the Carolina Panthers-Chicago Bears would be proud of these guys. Still, I believe Hamline should have a fire under their butts after last year and, despite arduous conditions including but not limited to needing an entire scoring roster to finish next Saturday, they pull out the victory over St. Mary’s and shock all 19 people who stuck around to watch runners in the 40s to finish the race.
You focus on some weird things fuzzy nuts. The mediocre bowl and the toilet bowl excite you. I am more interested to see if St. Olaf can score under 30 points as a team. Or if they can get a non-scorer/pusher as all-conference. I like greatness, and with Bethel-Gustavus we aren't talking Greeno or Stumbo anymore. I also eat downvotes for breakfast.
No downvotes here, you're more than valid. I personally don't believe that the Oles will go under 30 but I'll own up to it if they do. That would be highly impressive, but again, if anyone could do it, this years squad can. In addition, I only bring up the mediocre and the toilet because I'm tired of the same topics getting beaten to death day after day. This can bring excitement at other levels of the MIAC beyond just the elites, and, in five years time, anything can change and any of these 6-11 could be contenders.
You know, I find it kind of impressive that people still care so much about what any team outside of Northfield is running. It's going to be St. Olaf, I hope we all understand, and then Carleton attempting to save themselves from embarrassment and getting a respectable second place team finish outside of their two low hanging balls. Meanwhile, while the Oles will continue to dominate the conference the way my uncle dominates me, and will drop their nuts over the Johnnies, Mac, the frosty pair of nads I mean lads from Scholastica, the testicular trio of Bethel-Concordia-Gustavus, Bati and whoever else Augsburg can scrounge up, and lastly a pair of schools that hurt almost as much to watch as getting kicked in the pair.

I get it. If you want proof of rising and falling, just look at where Hamline and Macalester were in 2011 compared to now.
Bethel seems to be taking a couple steps forward...and it would be interesting to see St. Mary's get a few more guys and climb out of the bottom ranks.
The last time MIACs were at Carleton only Wilkinson and Mueller went sub 25. How many guys are going to break 25:00 this year?
Bati already did earlier, Lloyd was half a second off. Lars, Kelly and Boone should as well. Then maybe 3 from Gabe, ole’s not named Will, a Scott (from Mac or I guess some random guy named Scott) or maybe a surprise Johnnie.
My secret pleasure is guessing the gender of Macalaster students. Somehow, with a 50/50 chance on all of them, I’m still shooting 0%.
Wow, 12 downvotes, scary!
Looks like Macalaster must have finally gotten past the firewall after all. Maybe they set their VPNs to their liberal Palestinian paradise.
The downvotes are from Carleton math and cs students offended by your 50/50 claim. Not only does your lazy insult refuse to account for the null case (non-binary), but even if gender was completely binary, it wouldn’t be truly 50/50 because the distribution of gender of Macalester students isn’t even close to a 50/50.

Nerd alert
I hope your IP address isn't coming from St. Olaf, because you know the Carleton CC team is busy locating the source and if it turns out it was an Ole was calling them nerds, that might be just the motivation they need to shock the world (or at least Northfield) at conference.

I think the address is coming from your mom’s house (more specifically her bedroom).

Getting butthurt about getting called a nerd only to source the IP.

The fact that you don't actually spell it out and use "F***" totally exposes that you are not, in fact, a Macalester Hippie, but rather trying to make Macalester look bad.
