Left hash, miss left, then miss right (over-correct).  If you are going for FG, get the ball in the middle of field with  a run play.
Embrace the pace of the race.

I just feel for the kids who have given it there all and have nothing to show for it

We played at Northern Arizona a few years back. They’re at #2, although the list is just for D1.

I’ve been to one college stadium higher (there’s probably a few more too). The “Mountaineer Bowl” at D2 Western Colorado University (Gunnison) sits at 7,771 feet above sea level.

Didn't they have oxygen available, or did we travel out enough ahead of time to acclimate the team? I remember that being a concern back then, and I still think it played a part in the SUU game.
