    Ten Difference Makers for 2005 season...

    1. Horne -- Big time player. Huge game at UNH. See you in the NFL.
    2. Goodwin -- You could put that guy in the books for at least one big play every game. The catch vs. SIU was the play of the year for me.
    3. Wingert -- Had a rough stretch mid-season and then made his last 10 of the year. 3 for 3 at Chatty.
    4. Varner -- Went from obscurity to a rock solid safety in one season. That's a great JC transfer story.
    5. Garrett -- switches from LB to FB mid-season, helps the running game get going and makes some clutch catches too.
    6. Hermann -- Came alive vs. Western Kentucky and kept the heat on the rest of the way. Huge senior season.
    7. Sanders -- Plays QB like Greg Maddux pitches, but it's more fun to watch. Made so many plays that very few college QB's, let alone sophomores, can make. Still can't believe the shovel pass at Tx St.
    8. Defensive Unit -- These guys came up big at clutch moments so many times. Great effort in the title game. Went toe to toe with the best offenses in the country.
    9. Freeney -- Not the senior season he wanted, but still found a way to contribute and ran hard in playoffs when we needed him. Glad he got 3,000.
    10. Surrency -- Softest hands you'll see. Quiet start to the season played very well down the stretch run. Great TD catch at Tx State.

    Lets reload this thing and do it again.

    Well said... can't wait!!
    "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

      You left off Hunter and Murrell. They ultimately made the largest difference to your season.

          You won. Enjoy it. We'll be back next season.
          If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times

            not really. their play influenced only part of one game.
            while the list is made up of players who made a difference in more than a dozen games. Hunter and Murrell were indeed top difference makers for ASU's season. but not for UNI's

              Oddly enough, 21-16 is also the Appy State entrance exam.

              It's a two part test, you also have to kill a squirrel with a stick.

                Blue42,
                You're the man!

                How about having a full set of teeth to be included in the "North Carolina Rippleys Believe it or Not"

                Give those Carolina hillbillys a six pack of Billy Carter beer and a bug zapper and you'll never see them again
