Musketeer Madness

Since X does not have a team- lets all support UC football. A former member of our club team is on UC's roster Josh Canafax.


UC has sold over 11k season tickets and finished last year #18 in the AP Poll. They wew 10-3. Who is with me?

Gary, X does have a very successful Club Team, which won their league last year, and currently has 7 games scheduled this fall; I attended all home games last year, plus the away game at Miami. It was a lot of fun, plus being pretty good football. New supporters/attendees are always welcome.

I agree. Season tickets are quite reasonable and they are a lot more fun to watch than the Bengals. I think I paid about #36 for two season tickets on the 30 yard line last year--piggybacked onto a UCATS member friend. Good tailgate section near their alumni center as well.
Still prefer OSU, but season tickets there are about $1000 plus large donations.

No Way! Everyone needs to cheer for the Blue and Gold of Notre Dame!

It should be declared heresy for any American Catholic to root against the football team of Our Lady's University, especially vis-a-vis hooligan programs like OSU. It is your moral obligation to support the Irish!!!

I thought hooligans were Irish???

I'll take care of my moral obligation by following Holy Cross's season.....NEVER Notre Dame! Go Bucks!

I actually found myself cheering for UC last year when my Irish were getting sacked every other play because of the great O line. It's a litte odd cheering for UC when 99% of UC fans still won't cheer us on after they fail to make the tourney. I guess that's what seperates muskie fans from UC fans. We support our city and are highly intelligent, while they fail to see the reasoning in cheering on a local team. I suppose until the day that X gets a football team that I will continue to cheer half heartedly for UC

I agree with gym. Xavier's club football team was very successful last fall (I would have loved to see Canafax stay with the club team as he is an outstanding player; however, he wanted t try D-1 football and I admire his determination and wish him good luck).

However, Xavier does have a club team playing seven games this fall and the team includes a number of very good players who played a big part in winning the Midwest club conferece
title. Heck, the club team is going to Lincoln University (MIssouri) in October to play that school's D-II team in its homecoming game.

The Muskie gridders have made great strides in two years of existence and they are worthy of our support.
