28-7

Player of the Game: Leigh Gatewood 26-44, 294 yards, 5 car., 3 total TDs

Stars Cruise!

The Stars continue their winning ways as they defeated the Navy Midshipmen 28-7. In a blustering snowstorm, North City was able to contain the option offense of Navy and do just enough on offense to score. Leigh had a good game as he threw for 2 TDs and also scrambled in for a TD. With the win their win streak goes to 5 games and they now have a record of 8-1.

In this late season stretch, Coach Mason said that it was critical that they continue to win. In previous years they slowed down around this time in what he liked to call the “winter blues”. Next week they face the Miami University Redhawks.

Making Noise
Miami U stood no chance against the tough defense of North City. This is the third opponent that they have held to no more than 7 points as their defense has really stepped up these last few weeks.
The offense was on fire as usual, and the combined power of their offense and defense led North City to the 38-7 victory. Rivas had a big game, rushing for 129 yards and 2 TDs on only 11 carries. Next week is Senior Night as they play the Western Michigan Broncos. This is also the first week in school history that they have broken into the top 25.

Stars Continue To Soar
In the final game of this dream season for North City, they faced off against the 10^th ranked Arkansas State Red Wolves. After a quick 2 turnovers by Arkansas State, they found themselves down 10-0, and going into halftime they were trailing 17-0.
After a safety it was 19-0 and it was looking to be another blowout by North City. Arkansas State was able to make it a very entertaining 4^th quarter after a few 3 and out stops and scoring to make it 19-7. North City would score a field goal and go up 22-7, but the Red Wolves would score immediately and make it a 22-15 game after a successful 2 point conversion. Arkansas State would get North City into a crucial 3^rd and 5 but the aggressive nature of Coach Mason would strike success for the Stars as they scored on a 45 yard pass from Gatewood to Logan. The Red Wolves would score again with :12 left in the game, but after an unsuccessful onside kick North City would kneel down to win the game. Final score: 29-22.
North City has extended their win streak to 8 games as they await their bowl game placement after a very unexpected 11-1 season.

Painful Setback

Disappointment. That’s the look that Coach Mason had on his face for the majority of the game. North City was the clear favorites, coming into this game with the #1 defense in the nation. But they also were bringing in a ton of inexperience as this was the first bowl game all of these kids, and their coach, has been in. Colorado dominated this game with their effective balanced attack of run and pass. Their effectiveness on third down and keeping a tired defense on the field for an extended amount of time was detrimental to their success. Along with keeping their offense on the field, they kept North City’s offense off the field.
Turnovers also played a key role in this game, as North City threw 3 interceptions and lost a fumble. The turnovers for North City happened deep into drives, which seemed to just take the life out of the team when they occurred. The 4^th quarter was where North City attempted a comeback, but it was too little, too late. The final score Colorado 31, North City 24.

Athletic Director Darius Byrd shut down all the rumors by saying that North City University would remain independent for the foreseeable future. The Notre Dame program has grown an attachment to North City, so perhaps in the next few years a package deal for and North City could be placed on the table by a few of the big conferences. Only time will tell what will happen in the ever-changing college football universe.

Well it's been a while since I've updated this, but I kept playing this dynasty. In short, I was able to build up this school to be effing great. To the point that I forced myself to leave and go to Texas Tech. But I still kept up with the Stars cause I knew I would use them in 14. I have some tables that I made that helped me keep track of them.
