Some tough pills to swallow in the fourth when things blew up, but I saw great improvement overall. Our boys played physical. We played a team that on paper should dominate us at every position, competitively for 3 quarters. We don't drop that int, we're up 14-0. That sack on Dalton that got reviewed for 45 minutes was a hell of a defensive play, and would have been huge, but his knee was down, would have changed things dramatically. When is the last time we used the word "competitive." Remember we are still 1-0 in conference. We will most likely not see a team as good as TCU the rest of the year.
At the watching party at Brother Jimmy's in NY tonight, it was loud and PACKED, a raucous atmosphere, about 65/35 ratio frog-to-ponies (yes that's right I still say ponies), I had nice chats with some NYC frogs who were gracious in victory, and some ponies were nice enough to invite me and Mike to partake of their giant fishbowl monstrosity drink. Several bourbons and pbr's. Anyway, we are still a year or two away from TCU, that is clear, but I actually saw progress tonight (as did the frogs watching next to me who did not like it at all), and I was encouraged by that. Yeah that's right, I'm goin gumdrops and lollipops on this one, ECU is nowhere near as good as TCU is, go stangs
