1. Do I really need to tell ya?
2. The Southern Illinois offensive line made the IU defensive line their bitch. It was not always just scheme, although they played a well-thought out game and executed well. Re-watch it and count how often they blocked us 4 on 2, and 2 on 1 and whispered "Loook, he's over there - watch him go!"
3. MUCH overpursuit/bad angle/arm tackling. Defense requires savvy and instinct.
4. Their QB was better than Nate. He threw 24 for 31 for 411, and 17 for 106. I ain't no Finite Math major, but that's 517 yards.
5. The IU announcer and official stats keepers don't know our roster. The suspended Scales was annouced as the guy who made the TD saving tackle on Play 1. The official "participation report" says Donvaan Hale played. Fant - not Hale - was the player.
6. Zee.Row.Sacks.
7. I was hoping Tyler Green would be such a stud, he'd start and dominate. My fantasy life is a'kilter.
8. We didn't get to see who waas No. 2 and who was Clean Up.
9. Still some dead air. Same ol' cheers. Same ol' pre-game. same ol' daytime fireworks. Our Excitement Director is still not in charge.
10. My cell phone battery died. Addiction to electronic communication is a horrible thing.
I'm out next week. My Kentucky fan friend is dragging me to South Carolina. Be nice to whoever uses my tickets - they are friends of my wife and you could cost me BIG.
