Yup. And WB had wasted an earlier timeout as well, they had no shot after that. 

PAM's Special Teams provided that win almost as much as the D IMHO. They constantly gave PAM great field position, and made BWB work the field. Those hidden yards added up. Bruins had issues on special teams. A definite difference.

The one consistant facet of Memorial since Morgan's been coach is consistant special teams.  There were many a year which bad snaps, shanked punts, etc put the defense in percarious situations.....

Morgan was a kicker @TJ and PV so salute to him suring that phase up week after week.  Year after year

Coach Jones (special teams coordinator) does a good job.

Sitting back thinking about it, it's really amazing we're 6-0 at this point with replacing so many studs from last season. I didn't think we'd be undefeated at this point of the season in February.

You wouldn't be undefeated if you still played La Porte or North Shore!🤣🤣

Not the Donkey Stompin I was predicting but we'll call it one anyways.

Looking at how the two teams have played common opponents in back-to-back weeks, the spreads aren’t much different.

But, I’m thinking it’s going to come down to who controls the pace/tempo the best. This year, PAM would probably prefer a clock control, lower scoring game. This year, LP would probably prefer a higher scoring game where PAM has to play catch-up.

I believe the Dawgs are getting some folks back from injury. Not all, because at least one OL I know of is out for the year. Has been since game 1 I think.

Computers will probably pick PAM bigly. I will pick LP.

Rivalry games are the hardest games to predict. And knowing the history of the rivalry the game could and probably go in a different direction than anyone thinks it.
