No joke. Even if we get sick of it, when viral marketing opportunities fall into your lap for nothing, you have to take advantage. This exposure is quite literally worth millions of dollars.

I was at that game....it was a line drive shot that never got height but Derek hit it with such power it cleared. lol

Good win last night...Lafayette will have a nice team in the Patriot League this year.

Beat Cincinnati...

I was at that game too. There was a big time gale blowing south to north and he kicked the ball toward the north goal from exactly the center of the LT logo right on the 50 yard line. You are correct, Freak - that kick probably never even got 20 feet off the ground and instead of spinning end over end vertically, the ball was spinning as it was oriented horizontally to the ground. It hit the crossbar dead center and bounced over. I remember it so clearly because of it being a record 60 yarder but also because it had to be the most bizarre looking kick I've ever seen with it spinning sideways, covering that kind of distance and never getting any height on it. It was just about impossible to kick a FG going the other direction that day unless you were really in close. I wish I could find a video of it.

Jackson Kleather earned Special Teams POW honors. Honestly should have gone to the entire unit. Execution on that side of the ball was lights out on Thursday.
