Looks like EE D is keying on #33.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

There's the 33 we know and love.

And once more for an encore.

Gore with the catch for the firat down. When Jennings throws, the ball gets there in a hurry.

25yd TD toss to Hawkins. Caravatta is calling OPI. Will Edm challenge? Nope.

1PC makes it 7-0 BC. Enjoy this lead folks, it may be short-lived.

Jennings' first TD pass is a beauty to Hawkins.

Pick negated by Roh's offside. Reilly knew he had a free play.

Nice stuff on 2nd & short to stall the EE drive.

Does anyone know what happened to Steven Clarke? Chris Rwabukamba is playing corner.
