College Football-Week 8

It's that time again, Saturdays!

Had to get up early Saturday morning and hit the road around 6:30am to meet the guys at Cracker Barrell in Indianapolis. They left even earlier than I did as I joined them after they ate. We then carpooled the rest of the way to Wabash College.

For pregame we watched a previous game and went over the good, not to much bad, and fortunately no ugly.

It is truly amazing how fast that two and a half hours before kickoff flies by. Unreal. Before you know it I'm escorting the captains out for the coin flip, our crew is meeting on the 50 yd line with one minute before kickoff and then, Battle stations!




Wooster is the visiting team and some of their bagpipe faithful showed up to support. As for Wabash they have a great fan base as well and they're out in full force. It's game time.

Wabash comes out right away and scores on their first drive. Wooster is up to the challenge and evens it up at 7 a piece. Wabash went out back on top at 10-7 but once again Wooster answered the bell to go up 14-10.

It was great to be a part of this game because it was very very clean with only six flags (I didn't have any for this game) and some hard slobber knocker hits. Wow!

Good football being played. At the half Wabash went up 24-14.

This was a hard fought game until the end and the final score is a little deceiving. Wabash sealed the deal with a long interception return for a touchdown. The pass was tipped and the Db caught it near the sideline, ran through a tackle and stayed inbounds as he ran it back.

Everyone was great toward us. Home and visiting team, that is always nice.

After the game we talk for a short bit. The guys have reservations for a nice restaurant in Indianapolis and are eager to get there. I really wish I could have went with them, but could not since I had to pick the family up at the in-laws.

Will be back at it again next week. Special Thanks to Jim Amidon for the pics!
