Not Bad, Not Bad At All-- UT 13-NIU 9

Well, we didn't win, but it was a close one. Anytime Nothern can stay in a game with a powerhouse like Tennessee, that's a good thing.

And, we very well could have won!!!

The score was 3-3 at half, but them UT scored a TD and Field Goal right away at the start of the second half and we believed the rout was on the way. But it didn't happen.

Twice, NIU had the ball within the ten yard line, but had to settle for field goals. The Northern qb ran far too often.

The good old red was quite outnumbered in the sea of orange, but my nephew said we were VERY AUDIBLE. We sat close to the main body of Huskie fans, but there were a lot of Tennessee fans sitting around us. One lady said this was her first time at Neyland Stadium. Another guy said he actually hoped we'd win as he wants Tennessee coach Fulmer fired.

All I can say for Tennessee is that it's going to be a l-o-n-g season. These guys aren't used to losing too often.
