This is a tweet yesterday from Montana football. I was there. We had the better team. BJ should have played the freshman tailbacks more and we would have won. Still hard to believe we didn’t score until the last play of the game.

I think that's the game where we managed to put together a "prize package" for a couple of Furman students to get them to the game. That was the most fun I ever had with this site.

HYPOTHETICALLY, I have the ball from that game in my closet.. Shhh. I was watching the last play and then they put the ball down... everyone ran on the field and it was just there. HYPOTHETICALLY
Probably my fav win - or top 5 anyway. Beating UNC etc.
DAMN Losing to Montana hurt, I will N E V E R understand why (after watching the 1st half) we kept running Louis Ivory - he wasn't near ready and the other backs had carried us past GSU. Bobby J was one of our best coaches ever but that was a decision I will never understand

That was a fun playoff run. HYPOTHETICALLY, I may have had two kegs open and flowing at North Village at 7AM for those two home playoff games. HYPOTHETICALLY.
Napier played great in the GSU semi final game. Didn't go to it. I think it was over Thanksgiving Break? But remember watching it on TV.
Ended up flying up to the NC with about 15 other baseball players. We were definitely better than Montana but that game plan to play Lou didn't make sense.
