Are you ready for some [more] football?

The Wildcats are 10-0, champions of the Lone Star Conference, the No. 1-ranked team in NCAA Division II's Super Region Four (and No. 2 in the nation) and hosts of the next two rounds of national playoffs if they continue their winning ways in the postseason.

They are among national leaders in several offensive and defensive statistics, powered by a trio of record-smashing seniors [and NFL prospects] – quarterback Billy Malone and wide receiver Johnny Knox [pictured here], and runningback Bernard Scott [see photo on post about Gerald Ewing earlier today].

You can follow the team on acusports.com each day, or by following the posts at acusports.blogspot.com.

Get your purple on and come to Shotwell Stadium, starting Saturday, Nov. 22, for the first of what could be several exciting playoff games hosted by ACU. Because of the Wildcats' sterling record and ranking, the road to the semifinals goes through Abilene and could lead to the national championship game in Florence, Ala., Dec. 13.

Coach Chris Thomsen's team is being called by some longtime college football observers the most talented and exciting offense in NCAA Division II history. You'll be kicking yourself if you miss the show.

Photographer Profile: Gerald Ewing

One of ACU's primary freelance photographers is Abilene native Gerald Ewing.

No one has snapped more frames on campus or on the university's behalf in the past 10 years than Gerald, who had an award-winning 32-year career at the Abilene Reporter-News before starting his own business, (www.geraldewing.com), in 1998.

He shoots virtually all our athletics events [such as this image of record-setting ACU running back Bernard Scott], and many others such as fundraising dinners and commencements and Opening Assemblies and press conferences. He is a fixture on campus, with a can-do spirit and sense of humor that endures him to others easily. Gerald has been a large part of the magazine's success in juried competition, providing quality images that make us and the university look our best.

He also hates it when I catch more fish than him.
