    You guys did well, Winder. It was the officials who dropped the ball all game.

      If you're doing what you're trained to do (and obviously experienced and successful at), then any screw ups probably have to fall on the officals.

      One of my favorite moments, when they had to quiet the crowd to relay the instruction on resetting the time, and as soon as they did, the place went nuts instantly again.

        One of the times was due to the "Down marker" guy failing to change the down to 1st down! Not your fault at all.

          What sidelines was the down marker falling behind on que to change the down. I'm wondering if I know the guy.

            The west side is the only one who changes downs on the marker. The east side is simply a placement marker.

              Does this mean you were operating the clock, Winder? If that was the case, I'd have been a lot harder on the clock operator...

                You know, now that you mention it, that sounds like a good idea.

                  Actually, if it makes you feel any better, everyone in the band was blaming the refs. I was watching the clock rather closely after the first two times they wanted it reset, and it made perfect sense to me how the clock was running. I'm still convinced that those refs were just really "Special," and their mommies love them very much.

                  Don't let a couple of refs in crash helmets bring down the smoothly running machine that is the UNI-Dome. BELIEVE DAT.

                    Tell Bob if he still wants a hat, he can have one. The tuba section will even sign a flycap for you specifically! (we hate those things, and would rather give them away then have to wear them)

                      I just happen to talk Bob tonight and told him about the hat. He said he would love to have a hat for the "Panther Pit", his UNI room at home.
