I was at the game and it was quite a fun atmosphere. Lots of fans, and everyone was pretty into it. Two observations from the game:
1. Why the hell would the Auggies try and pass on two separate 4th and inches situations? With past Auggie teams that couldn't run the ball as effectively, I could see it. But this freshman RB is the real deal, and he was running really well on the Tommies. I think those two plays were huge turning points in the game.
2. Caruso really has a thing for screaming at refs, huh? I understand most coaches do, but there were a couple of times that he was 5-10 yards out on the field, screaming at an official for quite a while. On the 50 yard TD run to make it 17-0, he was screaming at the ref for about 2 minutes during the run and after the run. Just thought it was a bit strange since it was a TD run that essentially won the game....
