This is much more fun to do when a season can end on a win. Another season has come to a close and I do my end of season thanks.

This was one hell of a special season. I hope younger folk don't take it for granted. I'm only in my mid 40's but even that old I've dark times in our fball past and older than me have seen darker.
I'm not sure exactly what my expectations were for this year. I know wanted to finally beat EIU, finish in upper part of conference and go to a nice bowl game.
Well we did beat that team out east and rode that moment into a record tying start to the season and in the first year of the 12 team playoff it was us not EIU looking to the team from Iowa to crash the party.
Then we had our stumble. But this team bounced back with amazing resilience (unlike a Pittsburgh team that also started 7-0 then crashed and burned) and by taking care of what we could control and getting some outside help we found a path to the conference title game and a chance at making the playoff with a win.
Sadly again we stumbled but bounced back getting to play imo the coolest bowl game outside of the playoff games.
Miami had guys out or played less than usual but so did we and when.we lost Freyler I thought it could go bad fast.
But once again as we proved all season decimated by injuries on the defensive side of the ball it just the next man coming in and balling out.
I'm so thankful for this season as in the middle of it might life turned upside down and this season lifted my spirits. Just a hour before game time I was securing an interview.
Thanks to all for an amazing season and now we can focus on our amazing mbb team.
