Can't cry over spilled milk. If Russell had been successful on special teams this game would be tied. I remember WAY back at the Ashland game I walked out of Putnam wondering aloud if special teams would be our undoing. Let's hope they can dust themselves off in the second half here. Both of these teams came to play and this one is probably going down to the wire if they can keep those long Titan runs to minimum.

It's the least I can do for what you do for us. :thumb:

Not sure what was going with the trickeration there. Looks like the Marquee players are having Marquee games. Jackson, Clark, Jones, Wills, Ford all playing well. Great first half but Russell has to do better on special teams to have a shot.
