Great article, Karl! I'm very glad to hear that Noah handled the loss well, and I think it shows some commendable maturity on his part. There was a point when all of my rage, frustration and disappointment began to recede on Saturday after the game that I suddenly thought "Oh my God - The Streak!" That was by far the most depressing part of the day for me. :(

Awesome article, as usual, Karl!! Give Noah our best! His perspective on the game was a lot better than many I have read here! 8)

GO BG!!
FALCONS FOREVER!!
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

I remember watching BG lost to Temple in the late 90s and thinking, "boy, we really look bad." A few years later we hung 70 points on them. This is not, I repeat NOT, the end of the world.
