looks pretty good, obviously the big game right now is mt-berg but a lot of other contenders in there. One can't forget Wittenberg especially since the tigers beat the princes last year. Great too see another ncac team from ohio in the top ten. OWU might just be the team to beat in the ncac this year. With a balanced schedule this year we should have a better idea of who the best team is without the crazy tiebreakers we had last year. Otterbein can make some noise again, hopefully there won't be the injury problems of last year. Case unfortunately is in a bad situation with the change in league. Only 9 games will make it tough for them even if they were to go undefeated. Will this year bring Kenyon back to earth? They won't have the schedule of last year and have to play the same as everyone else this year. Might be tough to continue the success of last year, wish them luck though. Who will be this years feel good story? Once again with the balanced schedule in the ncac it is hard to see another Kenyon but it would be nice to see Hiram, Wooster or Denison put together a great year. 11/2 though in Tiffin, that is the game of the year.

oh I almost forgot. Good luck to Wilmington. I have a good friend from mt. Vernon whose son will be a incoming freshman on the football team this year and it would be great to see them turn their program around also.

OhioFan1954 you're right the big game is Mount at Berg. I know I am one-sided here but I really believe the Berg is going to pull off the win. I just like their overall team speed.
Also, the Witt vs. Ohio Wesleyan game should be a great one.
