Caught most of the second half today.

Nice road win. It was still up in the air in the second half, but we seemed to make the plays when we needed to in order to come home winners.

Other than our pass defense and maybe third down offensive conversions, theres not a whole lot to squawk about. Zero offensive turnovers, two forced turnovers, only 6 penalties (good for PSU standards), and perfect field goal kicking. Pretty focused game in my opinion.

Some thoughts:

- Ok, it was Weber State's run defense, but I think Long is the real deal.

- Finally, an interception by the defense! Two of them in fact.

- KM doesn't have to play great for us to win. He just needs to play smart. Nice performance by him today.

- Held an opponent under 100 on the ground again today.

When we play a complete game, we're a pretty damn fine football team. :thumb:

I'd give a game ball to Tommy Hewitt. He sounded pretty rough out there.
