Worst Game: TCU
Worst Game, part deux, Texas Tech, because we should have won. But TCU, gets the pick because we looked good enough to beat tech the week prior and laid an absolute egg against the froggies.
But let's end on a positive note, I am encouraged by our overall home performances. Only one clunker in the group.

Nevada. The San Jose win was just a "thank god the streak's over" win. Tulsa was a lot closer than it should have been. But we whipped Nevada, and acted like we expected to. That was a team that was showing signs of growing up. There's still a way, but to me, that was a benchmark game.
HONORABLE MENTION
Texas Tech. Yup, we lost. But we hung tough with a team that twice put up 70 points this year (including on TCU, and you'd have to live in Fort Worth to know how much I enjoyed that). But we stood there and fought the whole game with TTU, and after the game, Coach Bennett showed his team that he'd fight for them, too. That was an exciting game, and I was proud of our Ponies.

And because it fulfilled the vow I had made to not post on the football forum until the Mustangs had won 'two-in-a-row'!
