A 2008 HHEFL season update...Wisconsin downs the Irish and Hart leads Michigan to a win over Florida
The 2008 HHEFL College season rolls on, as the Wisconsin Badgers and Michigan Wolverines recently recorded victories.
First, on January 24, 2009 at the 2009 Miggle Convention, the Wisconsin Badgers (coached by Ron Christianson) faced off against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish (coached by Tim Young) in what became Wisconsin's first win of the season...28-6. Wisconsin was lead by #28 Anthony Davis, who rushed for 98 yards on 13 carries and scored 2 touchdowns. They were also lead by #9 Jonathon Orr, who opened the game with a 100 yard kickoff return and caught a 41 yard touchdown reception. Wisconsin (1-4) held Notre Dame to 153 total yards and 6 points in the win. For Notre Dame (0-6) their regular season has come to an end, but the BCS Bowl game weekend lingers in the next few weeks, as they will try to redeem themselves against Wisconsin.
On February 7, 2009 the Florida Gators (coached by Matthew Culp) paid a visit to Mundelein, Illinois and the Michigan Wolverines (coached by Joe Allore). The HHEFL league leading rusher, Mike Hart, was held to just 68 yards rushing, but two first half touchdowns would be all the Wolverines would need, as they sacked Chris Leak 7 times and held Florida to just 25 total yards for the game on route to a 18-0 win. The win was key, as now Michigan at 4-1 is in a good position to play in the BCS Championship game against Illinois if they can get past Missouri. For the Gators, at 3-3 their championship dreams are over, as they look to next season.
