Go Frogs!!

The Horned Frogs were smokin' hot in Tuesday's Poinsettia Bowl against Northern Illinois. The defense was awesome. Those guys were so fast and had no mercy on the Huskies. We loved watching! Even the offense, which always makes me nervous, turned in a good performance.

Check out these highlights from ESPN.

What to look forward to next season: the same defense, which is only graduating two seniors.

Other reasons why I was proud of my school while watching the game:
  • LaDainian Tomlinson, who was interviewed just before halftime. He looked good, spoke intelligently. Thankfully, he wasn't sporting the gotee (is that what you call that thing) that his teammate and former NIU running back Michael Turner had. For those who didn't know, LT encouraged TCU alums who couldn't attend the bowl to buy tickets and donate them to his charity, which would then allow underprivileged children a chance to attend the game.
  • Quarterback Jeff Ballard and offensive tackle Herb Taylor, graduating seniors. It was great to see they were awarded their degrees in a ceremony in San Diego because they missed the graduation ceremony in Fort Worth. Hey, not all jocks are idiots and some schools actually graduate athletes.
  • Do I really need a reason?

Go FROGS!
