Known to many who frequent D3Football.com and online chatroom PostPatterns as “One Armed Scott”, Adam Johnson is also the West Region writer for that site. In a special to JF.com, “OAS” spent the day watching the Johnnies and Tommies battle in the race for the MIAC title. As Adam writes, there was actually another battle about to take place well before the two teams ever took the field.
2002 Bulldog Memories

- 2007 redlands game
It’s Friday morning and most of us are just beginning to think about the work day and what it will take to make it through to “game day” tomorrow in Collegeville. Out on the west coast the University of Redlands Football team is now boarding a plane east and also pondering their first round NCAA playoff game vs. The Johnnies. Heading east this morning too with memories still fresh in his mind is former Bulldog player/captain Patrick Heisinger. Patrick relives what it was like for his Redlands teammates in 2002 and his hopes for Bulldog redemption in 2007! Thanks for your contribution Patrick.

For the Johnnie faithful who have read Austin Murphy’s The Sweet Season, the name Seth Olson may sound familiar. He was the kicker who tallied 3 extra points and a late field goal which provide the final margin in Bethel’s 24-20 win over St. John’s in 1999, the Royals’ first win over the Johnnies in [...]

Someone has to stick up for the Tommies this week. Will Rich Mies be that guy? If nothing else, he’ll be eloquent. As a columnist for the College Sporting News, he’s seen his share of football games—including Johnnie-Tommie games—and knows how to be objective. He’s also got a fun little twist to his background that makes his take on this game more interesting than most. Read on to see what Rich thinks about the Minnesota Rosary Rumble.

- In Regards to:
- 2007 gustavus game
2007 has been a season of change for the Gustavus Adolphus football team—there’s been a new stadium, new faces in the coaching staff, and an entirely new no huddle offense. Another thing the team is hoping to change is their recent history against St. John’s—the Golden Gusties have lost their last 9 meetings with [...]

When Brian Senske arrived at St. Olaf as a first-year quarterback in the fall of 2000, the Oles were coming off of another mediocre season, finishing 3-7. Three months later, St. Olaf had a successful 7-3 record under its belt, Senske has Freshman All-American honors to his credit, and–most importantly–the Oles’ football program had [...]
