As for next week vs. USD, remember 2 years ago when we were the decided underdogs and led them until the last play of the game when they threw a "hail mary" 40 or 50 yard pass into the end zone?  Altho we seem to have had it covered, their guy came down with the ball as time expired.  Maybe we can pull it off this year.

Different conditions than Valpo is used to but the fact that the other team dropped more than Valpo dropped is no reason to not criticize the drops which, again, continued a bit of a trend from the previous week. Based on the reactions of Coach Cecchini, who I was standing about 20 feet behind and could hear his "comments" about the non catches, it appears he would agree. These guys are better than this.

Thanks for reminding me of the worst defensive setup I've seen in that situation from HS play and above.

Amick again got the call, but his 47-yard attempt at a tying field goal was again just short.

Go to the 2:59:00 mark to see the missed FG by Amick with :54 left in the 4th quarter. After the real time kick there is a replay that shows just how close it was.

Good Luck to the boys in SD! SD has a bunch of JC transfers that have size and speed!  At least it wont be raining!
Go Valpo!

3 yards short looked like. May not have been online as well.

After rewatching at least some of the game it was interesting that the Stetson announcers kept wondering if Clarke was coming in the game at some point when Valpo would have had to fly him in to do so.
