Monday Night Football has been doing me no wrong (other then keeping me from my studies). Even with all the election stuff going on try to catch a highlight reel. Antonio Freeman made one of the most freak/awesome receptions I have seen. To top it off it was the game winner in OT. What a game. Tomorrow I will try to post a link to the clip as I am sure it will be on the net somewhere. WOW.

As a disappointed Vikings fan I can still say that was one of the best games I've ever seen. What a catch.

It was a good game but the Northwestern game was the BEST. What a slugfest and the Cats pulled it out in the end.

What about those Hawkeyes beating the State Penn in double OT?

And next week it's Nebraska vs. K State, setting up a possible rematch w/ the OKIES.

Good stuff Saturday, Sunday and Mondays. Thank God today is Tuesday November 7th.

I will agree with you there jacob. That was an awesome game to watch as well. Breaks my to watch UM lose though. We handled them in hockey Saturday night as well. They outshot us 31-13 but we beat them 1-0. First time we have shut them out since 1988. They were ranked 1st in the nation with us in 6th. They dropped to 3rd and we moved up to 4th. Ryan Miller is one of, if not the best goalie in the nation. He is amazing to watch. Anyway, still trying to find a link to that catch.

yeah.... I saw that reception. It was awesome, to say the least.

It was sooo close to being an interception, but it slid out of the guy's hands right onto Freeman's back. Then, as Freeman rolled over, it bounced up and then back down to hit his wrist. And then Freeman gripped it and quickly jumped up. The other guy didn't even notice that Freeman had gotten up. Freeman just jumped up and ran for (and made, of course) a touchdown.

That had to be the coolest (and most weird) pass I have ever seen, and my dad's a football buff, so I've seen lots.

I'm just on nfl.com watching it, and I'm recalling how great of a catch it really was.


later.
