Upon Further Review: The Gift















All charitable donations must be accounted for on all tax forms including the gift that was handed to the yewts on saturday. Apparently Christmas was rescheduled and arrived early for Whittingham and the yewts who were simply handed the W so conveniently wrapped in holiday paper and a red bow saturday. This year's Holy War matchup was yet another epic nail biter on paper and possibly anything but holy or even a pure win. It was the 12th time of 14 meetings where the outcome was by a touchdown or less. In this case possibly even decided in a replay booth and controversial call rather than what actually occurred on the field. Unfortunately, never overturned one can still clearly see Bradley's knee is clearly down and change of possession has not occurred.

Saturday's contest began with even the coin toss being delayed with a pre-game scuffle and even ended with more scraps having to be broken up by team north's coaching staff. In fact, during post game interviews where Bronco stood yewt fans per Jay Drews blog threw snow and ice while hurling derogatory slurs. Yeah. Way to stay classy yewts.

Heaps may have been a freshman academically but was clearly the more poised and composed like a true senior quarterback than his two couterparts combined. Jake finished the day 22 of 37 for 228 yards 1 TD and 1 INT. On the other sidelines Wynn was only 13 of 30 and between their two quarterback system the yewts together threw for 3 INTs on the day.

The jerseys in blue played their hearts out like a band of brothers. Putnam fired up the defensive engines with the first play sacking Wynn untouched forcing the yewts into a 2nd and 19. In the first half the jerseys in blue held Eddie Wide on 7 attempts to only 11 yards. Yes, thats 1.6 per carry. Asiata didn't find much success either on his mere 3 attempts for only 7 yards. The cougs held the yewts in the half to 6 possessions with 5 punts and a missed FG. The band of brothers stood strong holding team up north to 4 of 15 on third down conversions for the day even clearly owning the field of position in the first half. The cougs average first half position was the 33 yd line while team up north could only muster the 18 yard line which also took the crowd out of the game.

On paper the yewts may have gotten the Wynn on the scoreboard but the cougs clearly come out ahead by a Heap of a margin in class, confidence and composure. Next season the matchup week might change but the cougs will have their opportunity at payback reclaiming what was rightfully theirs to obtain the last laugh concerning the gift.
