What's it going to take...

Connor and VM seem to have this one in the bag, VM took the lead from South (AK) High School with a huge touchdown run. However SHS just didn't want to go away tying it back up before half. SHS would come out with the swagger VM has been missing for the past two weeks and take a 17-7 lead. As Coach Newman tried everything in his playbook to escape with a W Connor could only toss a touchdown as the game ended to bring it to a 17-14 loss.

17-14 L
4 tkls, 1 Tfl
8/17 137 yds 1 td, 54 yrds 1 td rushing

Connor watched as his team fell apart and the harder he tried to keep them in it the more abuse he took. He couldn't figure out what it was going to take for him to turn this team around. Heading into a game against Redlands with their solid offense and average defense he had to figure it out and figure it out quick, or the town was going to lynch him from the flag post.

There was so much to focus on he spent most of his time at home or in school trying to get better. Mrs. Newman decided it was time for Connor to get out and take his mind off the game. Connor was focused on the game, but thought maybe if he took his mind off of it for a while it would help. While shopping at the mall Connor spotted a group of girls staring at him, but he ignored it and keep to his own. Until one of them walked over, after a few minutes he and a Jessica girl had decided to go see a movie and the best thing about her was she was the only girl in the whole city that didn't know who he was.

Connor came back focused and ready to go for this week's practice, and made sure to bring his linemen donuts hoping the blocking would get a little bit better. After practice Connor was called into the coaches office where stood San Jose State Head Coach Mike MacIntyre. After an hour of conversation MacIntyre made it clear that if Connor played well this week he could be receiving a scholarship to play QB at San Jose State and if he kept up his play on defense he could possibly play corner-back there if he wanted.
