Thanks, tucker, and thanks to everyone else who posted during the game.

Especially Rocky Top.

Game story aside for a moment, I'm honestly surprised at how well I performed. Cal may not really be that good, but to get rolled over like that?

I would have predicted the defense shutting down Cal, but I think I would have expected a little more of a struggle offensively, especially with the passing game. 9 of 9 is hard to believe for a good quarterback, much less me.

I recall a story I once heard about a qb (Testaverde?) that set a record for completions in a row for a game...and the complaint mentioned that the defense that they played against was poor. The counter was that most qb's can't have a perfect game against "air", much less a defense.

This has definitely been fun to write and play. I am glad I took notes during the game, as the log doesn't tell you the whole story.

I hope you all are enjoying this half as much as I am.

That said, I'm going home for the weekend tomorrow afternoon. I may post a bit of the week leading up to Syracuse, but not a whole lot until Monday evening.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
