[WoadBlue]

i listened to the game, did we get lucky?

No. We played a sound game. We didn't take advantage of all opportunities, but we also kept Houston from taking advantage of its openings. Players looked calm and confident throughout.

good.
i surely wasn't calm and confidant.

 

[ohio tarheels]

Hope the opener is a long high scoring affair so either team has to use lots of pitching!!!! I’ll be pulling for Purdue

i surely wasn't calm and confidant.

Yeah, I'm starting to get too old for games like that.

 

[WoadBlue]

Yeah, I'm starting to get too old for games like that.

I was too old for them a quarter of a century ago.

But the players really seemed relaxed, as if they knew they could secure the W.

Yeah, they seemed to play loose the whole game. I just hope my kids weren't listening to me, because I wasn't as relaxed as the players were and my language wasn't the best.
