One more thing....I will play tonight, but I am out of town Wed-Sat this week. I'll be back Saturday night, but I have to DJ I think, so for the next week, it will be done on Sunday afternoon hopefully as I will be busy Sunday night too.

Southern Miss vs UAB...that was a close one. Southern Miss came back in the 2nd half, they were up 24-17 with 1 min left. I scored to tie it up 24-24. Then Southern Miss drove the field and had a 21 yard FG attempt to win the game with 1 second left. I called all 3 time outs and froze the kicker. He missed it wide LEFT.

Got the ball first in OT, scored on a long pass. First play for Southern Miss on offense in OT they throw a screen, I user big hit the HB and cause a fumble. Grabbed the ball and dove to the ground. Game over! :-)

31-24 in OT.

I'm doing a little better on the turnovers, this time I only had 3. It was raining like a freak-show so that may have caused some of it.

I am however, dealing with a "broken" team. I have 3 starters out, broken ribs, bruised knee, strained pectoral, and in this game 2 more starters were out with shoulder and knee issues. My trainer is earning his money. The good news, if there is some bright side, the backups are getting playing time....actually had to remove a redshirt to get enough players on the roster!

UAB ready to advance

With about 10 recruits in town, Troy powers through FAU 52-13; however lost their leading sack guy who's 4th in the nation in sacks with 7.0 for two weeks. The backup is out for the season with a broken shoulder in the same game.

I tried to play my game last night after playing E in the other dynasty and my son woke up. I didn't have a chance on finishing the game and texted G (should have took a screen shot photo to post score at the time).

I will play today when I get home from work.

Blasted the hell out of Miami of Ohio. My team is bad, but young and has talent in spots. My corner Xavier Hughes is disgustingly good for 79 overall (95 speed, 93 acceleration, and 89 man coverage certainly help).

Just gotta hope to fight my way to 6-6 and a bowl game.

Our sliders aren't terribly difficult and unfortunately since the fellow conference teams can't keep the same pace as us in recruiting, we're all pretty well guaranteed 6-6 seasons at this point. Obviously the tricky games come in the UvU games.

I figured they were cause they're actually a 4star program. I was going to go with Akron, but their roster was in shambles.

And, that's usually how these dynasties always go. The UvU games is what truly decides who does what. Unfortunately, Ohio was 0-6 when I took them over so I gotta win out to make 6-6 and I actually got sidetracked and forgot to look to see if I have any UvU games left (and my phone hates the online dynasty website).

Neither does my Droid. Just something about all that flash that is just too much for a phone processor.

And thanks for looking for me on the UvU games. Figured I would have at least one more to play. I might be lucky to pull off 5-7 now.
