Wittenberg has been dominant in four games
It’s hard to judge exactly how good the Wittenberg football team is in 2009. They have crushed four opponents (Olivet, Washington University, Ohio Wesleyan and Hiram) by a combined score of 173-13, but those four teams own a combined record of 3-14.
The Tigers should win by another lopsided score Saturday, Oct. 10, at Earlham College.
Then it’s the biggest test of the season: Wittenberg at Wabash on Oct. 17. Wabash will also likely be 5-0 entering that game, and it is currently ranked 11th in the nation.
What you can say about the Tigers is that they have been more dominant through four games than any Tiger team this decade. Some facts to consider:
If Wittenberg beats Earlham, it will be 5-0 for the first time since 2000.
Wittenberg has outscored its first four opponents by 160 points. That’s the biggest margin the program has had through four games since the 1997 team’s 217-27 margin.
Wittenberg leads NCAA Division III and all divisions of NCAA football in total defense (115.5 yards per game).
Wittenberg is tied for the NCAA D-III lead in scoring defense with Wisconsin-Whitewater (3.25 points per game). Those are the only two defenses in all of college football to be allowing fewer than seven points per game).
• Wittenberg is tied for eighth in NCAA D-III in scoring offense (43.25 points per game). Wabash is first (50.75 points per game). Witt is 21st in total offense (457.5 yards per game). Wabash is eighth (494.25).
