I was working offshore on a Shell rig while watching the game. At the “end” of the game, I threw my chair across the room and stormed out of the trailer. I went down to my quarters, turned on the tv and found out we won the game. I have never been so pissed off and happy at the same time.

I have never heard of a ground rule triple.

At the time of the hire, I told my buds that I would rather go 11 and 1 or 10 and 2 and lose to Alabama with a guy from down the bayou than with a guy from Ohio. But, I was wrong because we BEAT frickIN’ ALABAMA!

Well, Oswald didn’t kill Kennedy.

Went to the game with five other guys from my floor in Kirby Smith. We drove there in one of the guys mother’s Buick Electra. My first time in a car with cruise control. We got a ticket at 0200 in St. Marys Missouri. The police station reminded me of Andy of Mayberry. Ticket was $35.00. Lot of cash back then. Great game. ND field goal was set up by a bad interference call on Richard Picou. Gave them a first down. We held and they punted out of bounds on the one yard line. We couldn’t move the ball and punted. They got the ball in our territory and kicked the winning field goal.

Exactly right. Coaching involves identifying your opponents strengths and weaknesses. Avoid one and take advantage of the other. When Miles needed a first down to beat Alabama, he attacked their strength (front seven) instead of their weakness. Did it twice and went 0 for 2. O needed a first down to win and decided to attack the number one rush defense in the country. Looks like we are in the third iteration of Charlie Mc Clendon.

I was working in Houston in 1978 and while driving one morning the radio guy said this:
"If you were in the army, it's 0800. If you were in the navy, it's eight bells. If you are an Aggie, the big hand is on the twelve and the little hand is on the eight!

Never forgot it!

Iowa. Chavis couldn't hold a lead if it had two handles. But, let's keep giving him accolades for beating up on patsies and extending his contract.

He obviously didn't sit where I sat in BDS. I was two rows from the top of the endzone where we kicked the winning field goal and I couldn't see the back line of the endzone while sitting down. The sight line was terrible. It was a real cluster getting out of the stadium, also.

2012 is going to be our year!!!!!
