Yesterday was our first playoff game!
With about 11 minutes left in the 4 Th Qtr we were up by 3 against a good 7-2 Indiana team. Indiana just scored after a blown coverage and soft playing in our DBackfield.
We had the ball on our 25.
All Indiana needed was a stop with some time on the clock to give their PassO another shot.
in a drive of 75 yards and over 9 minutes and 18 plays, we took it to them with a dinged QB, a RB in Brown who is coming of age, TEs who blocked and a much maligned OL and OLcoach who controlled the LOS. We brought in a RS Freshman QB who got us a 1st down. He just happens to be 6 ft 3 and 235 and is a battering ram.
Those folks executed an almost perfect drive that Woody, Bo and Joe would be very impressed.
The end result was a TD with less than 2 minutes remaining and a 10 point lead
The Drive gave us our 1st playoff victory and kept alive our improbable meeting at the best or 2 Nd best team in the country next week.
Unlike other years when we stumbled along the way, we have a chance in yet another game to go 1-0 again.
Without The Drive there is a good possibility we may have lost any chance to continue in this tournament where for us , it is 1 more loss and we are out.
The Drive may well be remembered as the key moment of our college football season
hopefully so
