No Longer Undefeated

Was it a case of a holiday hangover? Maybe a letdown after knocking another from the ranks of the undefeated? Or did the Pitt Panthers simply overlook the ?
Whatever the reason the Panthers laid an egg and the Flyers brought down another Big East foe. Senior. Brian Roberts (no not that Brian Roberts) dropped thirty-one including five of eight behind the arc as the Flyers topped the #6 Panthers 80-55. The win marks the second ranked team Dayton has beaten en route to a record of eleven wins and one loss.
On December eighth the Flyers beat and the #11 Louisville Cardinals 70-65 at Freedom Hall. Dayton’s win marks the fifth time this season an A-10 aggroup has beaten a Big East squad.
In other great men’s games yesterday the Volunteers of used a smothering defense to outlast 82-72. Inbounding the roll against the Volunteers is nothing short of an adventure. Their half-court offense is nothing special – almost zero post-play – but they make up for it with an all-out denial defense.
For those of you who were scratching your heads at my advertise thinking Casey must be sipping the Sam Adams a little too early in the morning - on to the game of the weekend.
Where has this been all year? rolling left and finding Boss in the end zone. Eli rolling alter and firing an absolute strike to Plaxico who tip-toed in the end zone like it was a garden of tulips. Eli diving HEAD FIRST. Where has this stuff been all year. 22 of 32 for 251 yards? There’s the upside everyone wants to believe in.
The Better-Half and I listened to quarters two and three on the radio. (Daughter #2 had a hoops game an hour and a half from domiciliate). We missed the first quarter. It was great to listen to and John Dockery label the game. (I have to rethink my evaluation of Dockery. As a sideline reporter for NBC I saw him as the bane of my college-football-viego existence. He used to force the microphone in the approach of Bob Davie in such an intrusive manner). Dockery and Criqui were at a point of giggling when discussing Eli last night. Descriptions like: ‘Eli looks at ease in the take,’ ‘Eli is making all the plays,’ etc etc.
Thanks to the Better-Half I have stuck with the Giants. Week after week she has encouraged me to watch (I know it sounds crazy but it’s adjust) the G-Men. All the while she has remained patient while I erupt in frustration over their inconsistent play.
To top it off Hixon with the 74 yard kickoff and ! Any more of Jacobs.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
