Phew.  I didn’t post after last week’s poor showing because, as you’ve read below, I will deny a loss until the following win.  And so hooray, we pulled off a win.  I don’t need to harp on the poor showing this week as well, but there are just a couple points I wanted to make.

1.  How about our defense?  I wasn’t expecting much out of them (and, to be honest, I didn’t get much out of them), but they were certainly decent today.  Goalline stop?  Money.  Of course, 4th and 13?  Not so money.

2.  Our real problem lies in our offense.  What was it…our special teams block a punt so that it’s first and 10 on the 13…and by the time it’s 4th down, it was 4th and 14 on the 17?  That was just bad.  Luckily our special teams pulled 3 points out of that.

3.  How money would it have been to have made that 50+ yard field goal?  MAN.  So close!

4.  There WAS TOO undisputable evidence!!  I and the other 60,000+ fans saw it!

5.  The UVA student section is not loud.  At all.  I sat in the suites on the opposite side of the hill, and I couldn’t hear them even when I strained my ears.

6.  Lastly, let’s talk about how it was something like the 4th quarter before we finally broke 100 total offensive yards?  That’s just sad.

I have pictures up though.  I spent the day in the Williams Mullen suite, which was pretty sweet.  Get it?

Dandelion was fun last year as a 1L. We got all dressed up, we made hard drinks, we danced, laughed, and, ultimately, won. It was a good time indeed.

Dandelion is even more fun when you’re not a 1L. We didn’t have to dress up, we drank hard drinks, we danced, laughed, and, ultimately, won (in the sense of, who isn’t a winner when drinking? (Employers, if you’re reading this, please don’t read too deeply into that sentence)). My kids (Section B ‘09) did a phenomenal job and I gotta say I’m proud of them. At least they didn’t do something lame like 40s and Funnels (Sorry, Jane). But yeah, my section did Battle of the Bs: Bring It On Cheerleaders vs. Backstreet Boys (Bonus points for alliteration). Basically, in sum, they’re awesome. You can see pictures of the debauchery in the Photo Album.

Here’s a video of the guys’ dance:

My favorite part:

[Dudes grinding each other]
Male Voice:  I DON’T WANT TO SEE THAT!!
Female Voice:  …I think I do!
