A rematch in the playoffs, probably the NC game.

Words cannot express the shock we are experiencing after the 1 in a 1000 collapse that we just saw. It was truly something that is rarely seen.

Assuming the Hens can beat URI, and that could make an ASS out of U and ME, the Delaware at Towson game could be even more epic than this game was. Imagine what would be at stake. Towson would have the chance to end Delaware's season while Delaware could knock Towson out of first place in the CAA.

Soccer games canceled, but I forgot about our combined family birthday party for my 6 and 9 year olds(both October babies)
I checked the score on ESPN.com with 4 mintues to go, it was 35-27 ODU. :( My brother came down to tell me Towson just went up wit 50 seconds left. WTF!?! :nod:

Sounds like it was a barn burner!

I tuned into the radio just before people started showing up, Terrance West 3 rushes 106 yards 2 TDs, at the start of the 2nd quarter! :shock:
"Elaine, you're from Baltimore, right?"
"Yes, well, Towson actually."

Once your team has more than 2 1/2 seasons under your belt you'll realize it sadly happens more often than you care to admit. Certainly more than once every 8 or nine decades. The test is how they bounce back next week.

eTiger is the ultimate Towson fan. Him and his wife have been to EVERY Towson game, home and away since 1994. :nod: No joke. That tu01 guy is suspect. I think the only Towson games he goes to are when we visit Newark. 8-)

I don't know. I've seen a lot of football. Not too many are lost like this. If we recover the onsides kick, the game is over. If we stop them on 4th and friggin 29, the game is over. Those are two fairly low percentage plays with regard to execution, especially 4th and 29. This was not your average "blow an 11 point lead late in the game" situation.

Yeah, I saw a 1st quarter stat sheet (benefits of sitting next to the pressbox) and he had 3 carries for 106. He bounced 2 runs to the outside for long TD's. Good thing the endzone was as close as it was or he would still be running. He was 13 for 45 the rest of the game. The kid is a tough runner, no doubt.

Just listened tot he last 5 minutes on the Towson radio broadcast. Enders gets knocked out, Athens sacked, 4 th and 29, 63 yard TD with WR dragging players in the endzone!?!

Wake up HuskyAlum from AGS, Towson has a new all time finish! :shock:

Great game from all I've heard, 1000 yards of offense! My kinda game! :nod:

It looked like Enders tried to duck an arm and he caught a bicep that ripped his helmet off and sent it 5 yards behind him. He received attention on the field which required him to sit out a play. That, for us, was one play too little. :ohno:

Here is the best view of the friggin' 4th and 29 play. Can someone explain to me why anyone would rush 6 of your 11 defenders on 4th and 29? Count the defenders at or behind the line of scrimmage up to the point Enders throws the ball. SIX
