Well I'll be a monkey's uncle if this didn't turn out to be a pretty dang enjoyable game to watch. After quarters 1 and 2, I was ready to drink heavily in an effort to numb the pain. But after Brooks had a Wildcat McMuffin at halftime and chewed on some Wildcat ass, the boys came out ready to claw back.
I've never seen so many pivotal knee calls in my life.
1. Knee Call #1, when the ECU player fielded the kickoff at the 1 yard line his knee was DOWN. It was not called. Advantage ECU.
2. Knee Call #2, when the fumble recovery UK touchdown was reviewed and it was overturned, ruling that the ECU player's knee was down...I'm not sure it was "undisputable evidence" from what I saw, but whatever. Advantage ECU.
3. Knee Call #3, when the second fumble recovery UK touchdown was reviewed and confirmed, it was ruled that the ECU player fumbled and the UK defender did not have possession of the recovery while his knee was down. Touchdown CATS. Advantage UK.
4. Knee Call #4, when the ECU player fielded the kickoff again at the 1 yard line his knee was DOWN again. It was called this time. Advantage UK.
The way I see it, 2 calls swung ECU's way, and 2 swung UK's way. All's fair in love and war.
The ECU fans dissed us during the playing of My Old Kentucky Home in pregame. Maybe they didn't know, but we started scrapping with them to defend our honor.
Liberty Bowl Champs, period. Congrats to the CATS!
The 81% of the country that voted ECU to win can kiss a pig.
SEC! SEC! SEC!
(BAMA is getting whipped by Utah right now though.)
To be fair, I'll root for Louisville when they play in their bowl this year....oh, wait....(That Bud's for you mhall! j/k)
