Well, we come out of game one with a W and some huge surprises. The biggest shock was that while leading at halftime we actually mad defensive adjustments to COUNTER what the offense was doing! The second shock was that they didn't find some excuse not to give Markel Jones the ball. That kid is a stud, he only gets better as the game goes on.
The Cincinnati Bearcats were the first opponent of the Hazell era and it would not be an understatement to say that they showed what was to come. The Boilers trailed 14-7 at the half of that game and ended up losing 42-7. They did struggle to put away Middle Tennessee State last week so there is a good chance that we're going to get a good game this week.
We will be celebrating our annual Kid's Game this week, a hearty SCTC tailgating welcome to one and all! The house will be open for anyone that wants to come by anytime after 5:00 eastern. We'll have crafts for the kids and I'm sure Purdue Pete will stop by to drop gifts!
We will be celebrating the hometown of our opponent with a tailgating meal of Skyline Chili. We will have traditional cheese coneys and the fixings for a classic three or five way! The weather forecast is a bit dicey on Saturday morning but it is supposed to be clear by game time. If there is inclement weather we will plan to stay at the house to tailgate. Please contact me in the morning or check the SCTC facebook page to determine where we are on Saturday morning.
As a reminder for those of you arriving on Saturday morning we will be in the W Lot across from Slater Center for this season.
