it was incredible.
Just a couple of takeaways in a more stable state of Mind.
On 3rd down when we had the ball "last" Hamilton needed to catch the ball and run forward. Into, through blockers. He slowed up and did some kind of spin move. That play was set up beautifully. I was so angry at the time because that was the ballgame. Thankfully we have a FG kicker who is money.
Our stop on 4th of Wisconsin was a thing of beauty. They ran the perfect play but we defended it and made an incredible tackle. Couldn't even see it from the TV angle. Just saw the results based on the players running around.
On our final series when we were just running out the clock, Barkley managed to get down without going out of bounds... but wow it was close. Guy is an unbelievable athlete. The defenders were right there ready to push him OOB.
The final 3 seconds seemed to take forever. At some point I thought Trace would need to take the tackle.
Refs did a nice job IMO. Seemed to call it both ways.
I was so happy after this game I could barely stand up. (edit: I actually fell to one knee not because of drinking but because of the emotion) After all we've been through as fans (those of us who were around the entire time) from Rally 4 Resignations, to the constant Paterno BS, to coaching changes and players leaving and those sticking with us, I was speechless.
