The Augsburg Auggies took a gigantic leap forward on the football field in 2007, finishing the season 5-5 after winning a total of 4 games the previous 3 seasons. But the proverbial rising tide didn’t lift all boats for the Auggies—they lost their 10th straight matchup with the St. John’s Johnnies by an embarrassing 62-7 margin.

When Pigs Fly or More Johnnie Magic
If I would have asked the typical Johnnie fan on October 4, after a heartbreaking loss at the hands of the Bethel Royals, if the Johnnies would be playing their final MIAC game of the season on November 15 to determine the conference championship I would have received an answer something to the effect of [...]
Johnnie Gameday Predictions: Augsburg
Well fans, after last week’s bye, there are only two games left and the MIAC is as tight a race as it’s ever been. Simply put, the Johnnies need to win both and let everything else take care of itself. That’s it: just Augsburg this week and Carleton next — but most importantly, Augsburg this week.

The Manic MIAC
And the craziness continues in the MIAC for another weekend.
You have to go back to 1990 to find the last time the MIAC champion had two conference losses. That year, Concordia and St. Thomas shared the conference crown with 6-2 records—and St. Thomas hasn’t been there since.
