Or you get an All-American soccer player, who has not played collegiate football,  to suit up for the biggest game of the year, only to have him kick the game winning FG as time expires against your arch rival...

D1 teams have a hard time finding good kickers, by the time you get to D3 the pickings are slim.

For a team that hadn't sniffed the playoffs in a decade to hold a perennial championship contender to one TD and a couple of FGs on the road is a pretty good performance. Now they have a much better idea of what it takes to compete at this level, but Trinity will have to replace a lot of the guys that performed well today.  It'll be interesting to see what BSC, with a stronger rushing attack (but lesser passing), does in Belton next week.
Auburn's PK, Anders Carlson, was injured last week. His replacement tonight shanked a 25 yard attempt in Auburn's 21-17 loss at South Carolina. Touche'
Then there's going for it on 4th down on your own 35 late in the first half. That's the kind of crap that will get you fired quick.

Holy cow! Hopefully I got that last post deleted before too many saw it. I was fighting to stay awake by the end of that game and did some severe mis-remembering this morning. Yikes.

The Iron Bowl may be very very very ugly!  I will take Auburn and 42.5 points.

My wife and I are Alumni of both UMHB and HSU.  You think you are confused, my kids don't know which Purple and Gold team to pull for.

If any BSC fans plan to make the trip to Belton, please let me know. Plenty of options for good food!

If you are thinking about it, the Austin airport's a little more than an hour away from UMHB, Waco (AA only) is an hour away, DFW is about 2 1/2 hours.

Don't forget GRK in Killeen only is only 30 minutes away!

Unfortunately I won't be making this game.  Was just a bit out of range for me.  I would have really enjoyed coming and seeing the campus and stadium of this place though.  I will be watching online though.  Hoping for a good game and a BSC victory.

Any guess on how many BSC fans will be making the trip. I was impressed by the passion and number of the Trinity fans that came, of course I know it is a much shorter trip though.

Some tardy post game thoughts.  The Cru puts on a great home game, was windy but what a fun atmosphere.  UMHB was as advertised and TU couldn't move the ball when needed.  Great game and showing by both sides.  Glad my prediction was way off.  Best of luck to UMHB and BSC next week.
