  1. John Fanta: This is gonna be a heave. Yep -- I just heaved.
  2. So, for the past four years -- we were ground and pound. Almost had an aversion to 3s. This year -- we set up outside and let it fly. Can't we find a happy medium. Dorn had a great shot fake -- left his defender's jock on the floor -- then takes two steps back and launches from distance. Dude, drive to the bucket after the fake. At this point, getting any bucket would be nice.
  3. Guessing the Alberto to Georgia Tech news breaking today indicates this has been in the works for a while. Wish the young man well. It'll be sad to lose our connection to the Mendozas. Great family!
  4. What a great kid, from a great family. He gets misty eyed talking about his parents ... and as Dad is tearing up, Mom starts to as well. And then I do. LOL.
  5. Carter Smith thought he blew the natty. He's almost in tears. Wonder if he gave Sharpe that kiss? Very sweet ...
  6. How sweet it is. Just for the record. Final AP poll. We ended up with six wins over five Top 25 teams (beating the Ducks twice) ...
  7. I said 27-23. Had 'Nando just taken a safety on that final play, I'd have been spot on!
  8. Damn. Figured this might happen. Before we got Hoover, I was wondering/hoping it might just be a case where 'Nando passes the torch to Alberto. Though he played in garbage time, I thought he looked pretty good. But obviously, Cigs knows his sh-t -- and I guess he just figured Alberto wasn't ready to take the reigns.
  9. I can imagine the timeout before our final TD. Cigs: "Let's start Coop in motion and see if we can hit him on a quick out or Sarratt or Charlie on a back shoulder fade." Team looks at him quizzically. Cigs: "What's the matter with you guys?" Fernando: "I'll make it."
  10. We've collected quite a bit of hardware this season. Old Brass Spittoon Old Oaken Bucket Big Ten championship trophy Rose Bowl trophy Peach Bowl trophy Heisman Trophy and last, but not least ... NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY!
  11. You've got THE SHOT from Keith Smart. And now ... THE DRAW from Fernando!
  12. Cigs in the locker room after things finally quiet down ... "I love you guys."
  13. My mom, an IU alumna, was a HUGE Hoosiers sports fan. I'll never forget watching her cry when we won the natty in 1976. She passed just over three years ago. I have a feeling she's enjoying this one!
  14. I held off for as long as I could, but couldn't any longer ... I'M BAWLING LIKE A BABY! NATIONAL CHAMPS!!!
  15. When Sharpe picked that, I yelled so loud my 15-year-old deaf dog looked at me like: What's up with you!
