What a perfect day....a few observations:
- flew up with Beeski Jr. to live the Suite life (thank you Luke)
- Cam Ward is really, really good. We beat a very good legit top-10 team
- We didn't win due to Miami turnovers.....we beat them.
- King's injury might be his left arm / ribs. He was extending his right arm to be picked up by teammates after tackles. I've had a torn rotator cuff, you don't do that if your shoulder is injured.
- The 2-headed QB....how freaking brilliant by our O-coaches. And the players pulled it off. No false starts (well maybe one), no fumbled snaps, and kept them honest with occasional King passes and Philo runs.
- The 4th down stops......what a great effort by the D, all phases, all game.
- A full stadium is so cool. Props to Miami fans for showing up. More props to the Students.
- As an old fart, I don't like the piped in music either, but the students do. I'll sacrifice tradition for change if that's what it take to fill the student section and get them as passionate as they were / have been. If they could scale back 15-25% of the music, and turn the volume down a bit, It would make for a better experience for those of us over 40.
- caught a bit of Big Boi....pre-game concerts are a good idea
- we should have requested a gold crane for the Edge building site. so weird having open space there, makes the mid-town view even better.
- will be interesting what we do at QB for NCSU and Ugag. I trust the coaches.
- going to my first Hoops game Sunday in a while (I go back to Cremins 1st season), and Beeski Jr's first game
