I wasn't going to comment but after reading some of these before and after game comment s I'm going to weigh in.        Big Ned won the game and good luck going forward.  You don't hear anyone from  Dayton crying or complaining about the game. I think Ned is ranked 23rd and Dayton 60ish in the State and all of the Big boys had Ned pre-picked with a relative easy win.   ( only one fan in the pickems choose Dayton- one)  So to get on here  and say Ned was flat ,uninspired and let Dayton get a 20 point lead in the first quarter is a little disingenuous not  to give Dayton their accolades. The real reason for the anomaly - you got  punched in the face and underestimated  a team that was  alot better than you thought. Let's be honest saying things like we finally finished a game - ?when Dayton had 50 yards of penalties ( and this was all on Dayton being stupid) in their last two drives-odds on Dayton probably would of won.                 After being in the cellar for years Dayton is climbing out and getting more formidable every  season so don't sleep on us.

Doesn't Dayton have like 12 sophomore's and a couple freshman starting on varsity, they will be fine, I think they are just getting started
