I Picked a Bad Day to Quit Sniffing Glue

Good God, today was a tense day.

Mister and I just came back from Michigan Stadium where we beat Illinois 67 to 65 in triple overtime.

It was a school record for total scoring, as you might imagine. Sadly, I forgot my camera. On the bright side, although Mister left his Fancast device at home, he didn't miss it--too much going on!

We're 6-3 and bowl eligible. Hopefully, the team can relax and play loose the rest of the season with that monkey off their back. Could I dare hope to upset Ohio State with direct intevention by the football gods?

Probably not. Since before the season, I figured I'd be happy with a 7-5 record this year.

UPDATE: I should mention that the stadium gave a warm welcome to wounded veterans of the Iraq and Afghansitan campaigns as well as to Gold Star families who have lost a family member in combat.
