Johnnies Wrap-up Season 61-0 Over Hamline
Now what? [view excerpt]
The Johnnie Football Season, much akin to the entire going on a ride at Disney World scenario. One waits in a never ending line (the off-season), there are time point checks that advise you how long till you get to the front of the line (our monthly countdown posted on the site in articles) then [...]
Gabe’s By The Park [view excerpt]
This Saturday brings to an end a Johnnie Football season which in some ways reflects the craziness surrounding today’s college athletic world. College football fans have witnessed massive change in conference alignments, improprieties involving illegal benefits and even the fall of one of college footballs greatest icons. This is in no way indicates SJU suffers from similar ills, just [...]
Johnnies Dig Out of Hole in Knocking off Oles 27-24 [view excerpt]
With 4 turnovers in their first 4 offensive possessions and falling behind 17-0 to the Oles, who were 19th ranked in last week’s D3Football.com poll, the Johnnies circled the wagons to pull out a 27-24 victory in Collegeville. The team is now 5-4 overall /4-3 in MIAC play heading into next week’s season finale in [...]
Saturday Counts [view excerpt]
Saturday’s big play offense vs Carleton was a glimpse back in time when Johnnie football lived by the pass and racked up points and wins by the dozens.
The 2011 Johnnie Football season has been surprisingly highlighted by lopsided losses, inconsistent offensive and defensive play as well as constant media references to the unhappy Johnnie fan [...]
He’s MAD, and we’re glad! [view excerpt]
Having the moniker “The Mad Stork” hung on you as a young man could possibly give certain youngsters a bit of a complex, or even cause them mental anguish, but this is not the case for a certain active Johnnie. Who else could we be speaking about other than our own Connor Grill, sporting #69 [...]
Bruns & Graboski Lead the Way in 47-14 Win Over Carleton [view excerpt]
In the type of game that Johnnies fans have become accustom to during the past two decades,but that have been all but non-existent this season, the Johnnies put up 495 yards of total offense while limiting the Carleton Knights to 286 yards in a 47-14 victory before a crowd of 7,071 at Clemens Stadium.
The Johnnie [...]
Collegeville and Carleton [view excerpt]
Greetings Die Hard Johnnie Football Fans!
With an opportunity to put a bit of a winning streak together beginning Saturday The Johnnie Football team should be “all-in” for an “all-out” effort versus The Carls.
With former Johnnie strong man Kurt Ramler at the helm for Carleton could tomorrow’s tilt be a glimpse into the Collegeville crystal ball [...]
KONG! [view excerpt]
Planning, scheming, preparation, execution, and taking advantage of the opportunities at hand, these are a few of the descriptive words and phrases that are used in describing how an individual or Team should approach and play the game of Football. But as my old line coach used to tell us this is a violent game [...]
Johnnies End Losing Streak With 24-16 Victory Over GAC [view excerpt]
The Johnnies ended their 3 game skid by defeating Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter by a score of 24-16. The Johnnies dug out of a 9-0 hole early in the game with the help of an improved defense and by using 3 QBs in what can only be described as a team effort to [...]
Patrick’s on Third [view excerpt]
Greetings Johnnie Football Fans;
It’s been nearly two weeks since the last Johnnie Football setback against Bethel however there are slivers of hope. Back to back games against MIAC powerhouse schools UST and BU certainly could have left our footballers maimed and mumbling but for more than 3 quarters SJU showed BU a decent fight. A few plays here and [...]
Are you all in or not? [view excerpt]
As much as we who support Johnnie Football wish it were not so, our Season’s do have a certain shelf-life. At this point of the 2011 campaign we hit the second half of the season and the Nation that is unrivaled will only get to enjoy and cherish a measly 4 more Johnnie Football Saturdays, [...]
BIG ……… Lightening! [view excerpt]
For the past several years the Nation that is unrivaled has had deal with two (2) aspects of our season, the first being that fact that since those goofs over at Macalester dropped out of the MIAC (in Football) we have had to endure a bye week, the second being the annual passage due to [...]
Johnnies Still Looking for Answers:Bethel 41- SJU 20 [view excerpt]
Over the past decade,St. John’s is accustom to playing in the national spotlight with record crowds,a legendary coach and a NCAA Division III Championship in 2003. This year the spotlight has been on the Johnnies, but for undesirable reasons. First was the improbable comeback by Augsburg at SJU’s Homecoming where the Auggies traveled 80 yards [...]
Life Lessons [view excerpt]
Shocked, embarrassed, angry, sad, and pretty much speechless, these are the words that could be used to describe the 2011 Johnnie Football Season to date. And after the Tommies put what can only be called a book definition of classic ass-kicking on our boys last Saturday in St. Paul (hey can I still sit in [...]
What’s Wrong With Johnnie Football? [view excerpt]
The monstrous slide in Johnnie Football this season has left most fans perplexed with a resulting psychosis tip toeing the line between depression and anxiety.
The folks at JohnnieFootball.com have been meeting nightly pouring over vital statistics in an effort to diagnose what’s ailing our football team. The early results of our meta-analysis point not so [...]
A Butt-kicking in St. Paul: UST 63-SJU 7 [view excerpt]
The history of the rivalry of the University of St. Thomas and St. John’s University is long and winding. The rivalry plays out in families across Minnesota and the upper Midwest at holiday gatherings. The rivalry plays itself out in all athletic events,but none more so than the annual football game between the two schools. [...]
The Time Has Come… [view excerpt]
The Johnnies are at the fulcrum of their season. Last week’s game with Augsburg turned into a disaster of epic proportion. A lackluster first half falling behind 26-10 and a heroic drive by the 59 second man (Connor Bruns) ended up being all for naught. The defense breakdown to end the game was worthy of [...]
SJU Pregame Stiftungsfestivities! [view excerpt]
The Tommies keep moving the ball…. first it was 1,000 seats in the endzone for Johnnie fans and now the figure has been adjusted to seat closer to 500 as not to cover up the scoreboard. Whether it’s Bethel University doing the absolute minimum to provide suitable seating or UST still trying to figure out how to [...]

This is my first time writing for Johnniefootball.com. When first asked to write for this site I had a few distinct feelings. One of joy and excitement, and the other of fear that my thoughts would be read by many people outside my close family and friends. I then remembered the people that are reading [...]
