ATN Podcast 385: Whatever you do, don’t overreact

Finally, games! A huge week of Division III football, with a couple of thrilling upsets, and more than 200 Division III teams taking the field, means there's a lot to talk about. So, we in the media were admonished not to overreact, huh? All we have to do is look at our social media feeds if we want to see overreactions run wild, but we'll play Michael Wilbon's game. We decided to take four big storylines from this week's games and decide what the appropriate level of reaction is, and what might constitute an overreaction. So, we take on: The starting debut of Mount Union quarterback Mikey Maloney The plight of the freshman starting quarterback in general The as-of-right-now still unresolved end of the Case-Rowan game The WIAC getting off to a 7-0 start Plus, we talk with Belhaven quarterback Brock Morris, who lost his dad over the offseason. His dad was also a college quarterback and ... well, we'll let Brock tell the rest in our Fast Five segment, a five-minute interview in our regular season podcasts because it's hard to carve out more time than that. I mean, have you seen how long this episode is? Patrick and Greg had content on-site from Belhaven-Millsaps, Catholic-McDaniel, Susquehanna-Union and Lake Forest-Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. They also hand out game balls, highlight the interesting stats from Week 1, and go around each region to spotlight even more games from Week 1 and start to look ahead to Week 2. There's this and more in the latest edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast. Mailbag topics include: Should North Central be on upset watch next week vs. UW-Oshkosh? Are we already regretting some of our answers to the 20 Questions that we posed just a week and a half ago? And what's the best stadium food we've experienced? And there was so much bonus content this week.
