73 hours until kickoff!

I am so happy and proud of our Panthers! Win or loose they are #1 in my heart! We have so many great moments to look back on and smile. I swear I almost shed tears of joy last week. Great win!

I would however like just one more great moment. To be the National Champions! What a stocking stuffer that would make.
I know if we win this week I'll be weeping like a baby!

The video they showed at the airport tonight made me so proud of this team, university and community.

As Farley said: "I've always known we had the best fans in the country. Now we're gonna go have the best team in the country."

That guy just defines "Panther."

The airport was a blast last night. I met so many older alumni and faculty that were just beside themselves with emotion. The Lady that I talked to at length said that she and her husband (former college of ed faculty) literally sat in their living room and cried for an hour listening to the postgame show last friday.

And when the team came in- sure enough the waterworks opened right back up.

Also, I don't think you could find a happier man in all the world than Coach Farley. He was jumping ten feet in the air with every step. The team seems so loose just like they did that Thursday night in San Marcos. Judging by what I saw last night- I really like our chances!!

Good luck to the Panthers and I wish I could have been there last night. This team has brought me to the brink of tears more than once in the last few weeks. Thanks for that! Travel safe, prepare well, get your rest and play a focused and determined football game on Friday night. We'll be there with you!
