This guy is INCREDIBLE! There were at least 10 times last night when Burns would call some crappy play that would breakdown and look like it was going to be a sure sack, and BOOM--Willis would cut and juke and wind up throwing the ball 10-20 yard down the field to a TE or receiver. He showed poise and patience and didn't get rattled. Everyone should be praising this guy and thanking him for being a Mustang!

I'll say this if Bennett hadn't stayed with Willis and had replaced him with a less mobile QB then the story tonite would have been how could Tulane have gotten even more sacks then the 9 sacks they got last year. The offensive line was porous.

As long as we con't to call 2 yd pass plays, we will have pressure on Willis.

Porous, indeed. Both the O-line and our D secondary in the 3rd and 4th quarter looked like a bunch of 3rd stringers. It was like Tulane put in a bunch of monsters in the 3rd quarter. Their Offense couldn't be stopped. Period. I think one TU touchdown drive took like a minute and twenty seconds from the 35 yardline. The others were like 2 or 3 minutes max.

Good point -- I'm just as happy as you are that the Ponies won, especially after Tulane came back to take the lead. Always good to get a road win and a conference win, and any kind of win in that emotional place is a good win. This game had "trap game" written all over it.

You're right: "Congratulations, Ponies!"
