[edit] Championship Game

While Tiffin and St. Joe's did play each other, and the winner was going to be the conference champs, it wasn't a conference championship game. It was simply a regular season match-up. --Colslax 01:21, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

So, perhaps the heading should be "Conference championships" instead? That seems to be how it's referred to on the GLFC website.

St. Joseph's upsets Dragons in GLFC Championship 24-23 St. Joseph's (8-3) beat the 12th-ranked Tiffin University Dragons (10-1) with a classic fourth-quarter comeback to win the first GLFC Championship 24-23 in a thrilling football game. Tiffin, which finishes with a school record 10 victories and only one defeat, led 23-10 in the third quarter and stopped three second half Pumas drives with interceptions before the Pumas finally took the lead on a touchdown pass by Anthony Lindsey followed by the extra point with 1:20 left in the game. Tiffin followed with a late drive of their own, getting down to the Pumas 25 yard line before Deqwan Young made his second interception of the day, giving the Pumas the victory. Tiffin led 20-10 at the half, with Tom Fritsch and Dyshaun Edwards hauling in touchdown passes from Matt Root, while Troy Brookins also had a 90 yard kickoff return for another touchdown. The Pumas' Dan Paulsen, however, stole the show with 237 yards receiving on 14 receptions (both school records), with 10 of his catches leading to first downs. While Tiffin shut down the Pumas rushing game (-7 yards), St. Joseph's got the job done through the air (376 yards on 35 of 64 passing). St. Joseph's defense also stepped up, allowing only three points to Tiffin after halftime. St. Joseph's 8 victories is a new school record.

I think that is more a case of poor PR work, or good scheduling. That was a regularly scheduled game, which would be difficult to consider a conference championship. In that same token, the Big Ten has had a conference title on and off for years involving OSU-Michigan. -Colslax 03:04, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
