I honestly was preparing myself for a letdown at the end, as before the game I told myself a close loss would still be a sign of progress and that we'd have games vs Iowa and Wisconsin to help make up for the loss upcoming. But I also felt if PSU scored, we had time to try to go down and score a FG for the win(or tie), and unlike in the past, I felt with our QB already having proven himself to be pretty clutch and our WRs having proven that they can make incredibly miraculous catches, that even if PSU scored a TD, we could still win the game.
So even with all of the negativity still present in my mind from past disappointments seemingly being the norm, there was something different in my mind, too. Something different about this team compared to team's/coaches of the past. Since bringing in the new DC, we have won all of the games we were supposed to and a few we were not supposed to, with a lot of pummelings and a lot of close games pulled out in the end somehow. When have we had a QB that has made more clutch tosses, and RBs who have made more miraculous catches???
Oh, and when in the past were our players just bigger/taller than our opponents for the most part?
And on top of everything, Fleck has them doing well in class, behaving and believing in themselves!!!
