Good game, Mad. Got caught with my hand in the cookie jar.

 

No. 4 Tennessee 35, No. 3 Penn State 34 OT

Good game Rumple. I was beginning to wonder if I'd ever get the ball in the second half.

Box to come

 

My plan was to not let you get the ball and milk both quarters. Your stop on third down was huge because I had you to one timeout and I was going to kneel the rest out.

I'm also not sure why I began to call timeouts when you were driving to tie the game. I did it twice.

I was pretty upset about the INT I threw right after I picked you off. I had the play I wanted, just jumped the gun on the throw. I figured you were going to go for the slow drive in the second half, had my chances to stop you on third and long and a fourth and long, but just couldn't until the end. It was very frustrating. On the one hand, once we reached the fourth quarter, I was content with you taking your time just so long you left me around a minute or so after. Third down stop was huge because I was running out of answers. I was worried with having two or so minutes left because I was scoring quickly all game. I tried to slow down the pace and it finally worked.

This was the first game with a new playbook too. I practiced with this one the other day and liked it. I've been so hesitant to accept either a spread pass only game vs pro style offense. I found a medium with what I did today even if it seemed weird to run out of those formations. I didn't rack up the rushing yards like I have all season, but did enough to open up the passing game.

Great game. Probably one of the best ones I've been a part of since rejoining the league. Nice game.

 

Haven't been around here much lately.

How we looking?

 

Don't know if the title game's been played yet... rest is good, as you can see.

 

Buuuuuuump

 

Last I looked the BCS championship still had to be played. But that was a couple of days ago.

 

Ah, sorry everyone. Will play tonight or tomorrow.

 

Bump to check status.

Looks like Jake hasn't played yet.

 

I'm going to keep my 360 around and I love the dynasty. So count me in for another season!
