TC,

Where did you tailgate outside of Kinnick?  The atmosphere between fans before games is really dependent on what lot/area you are in.  Of course, the parking lot that most students used to tailgate in was closed a couple of years ago after students were throwing full beer cans at Michigan fans.  Probably for the best.  The atmosphere last Saturday was amazing...too bad the home team didn't capitalize on their opportunities and let the 23 game home winning streak slip away.

I agree with what Wahoo and others have said about the atmosphere up in Collegeville.  The big crowd pumps you up as an opposing player and I never had any problems hearing our audibles (of course, being an offensive guard may have had something to do with this).  The two times I played up in Collegeville ('97 and '99) we kept ourselves in it, but couldn't make plays when we absolutely had to...obviously, Johnnie defenders like Novak, Labore, Pahula, Wesley, Domo the Elder and the like had something to do with this.   

Oles need to limit turnovers and keep game close...Johnnies have ability to feed on momentum and put games away in a matter of minutes.  No predictions from this Ole fan, but I'm looking forward to making the 7 hr. drive from Iowa City for my first look at this year's edition of the Oles.  I just refuse to believe the stuff Wahoo keeps saying about how much more talented this year's team is than any he played on.  Wahoo, do you remember that offensive line of 2000?  ;D

Luther's website said Sherdan had 41 carries for 203 yards (while Luther as a team had only 280 total yards).  I know there was some debate as to whether or not he would get 100 on the Knights D, so I thought I would pass that along.

LC65,

Let me get this straight...a team gives up 580 yds. of offense (including a 98 yd. drive), sees their opponent go on a 30-0 scoring run, can't convert in the red zone...but yet they "shot themselves in the foot with turnovers."  Wrong...St. Olaf stuffed the ball down Luther's throat and they had no answer for it.  St. Olaf had 4 touchdown drives that were 75 yards or longer, so a short field resulting from turnovers had nothing to do with it.
