The season was going great.
Sure the wins against FSU and Ped State boosted my confidence, BUT we always seemed to have a letdown game against someone we should easily beat.
I knew it was coming and it came against BC.
We were up 12-7 and driving from our 27.
We converted a 3-13, Three 3-7's and two 3-5's down to BC's 30. I thought it was all over but then Frank Gore fumbled with 2:19 left.
BC drove down to our 9 yard line with 30 seconds left...then Matt Walters intercepted the pass and stumbled downfield, the rest is history. So I knew when Ed Reed crossed the goal line .....after taking the ball from Walters and went 80 yards for the TD.
Until that play, truthfully, I hoped and prayed but wasn't sure. That play let me know that the football gods were with us and that this was a very special team.
