I have to credit the Cajuns media presence. Within minutes after the game ended, I received an email with an invitation to donate to the program. Goal is 90 thousand and we are halfway there. Apparently, some anonymous donor is matching every donation. We just need to have someone step up with 25 grand and if they guy matches it we will be there. As far as game is concerned, this was close to being a blow out. We had three promising drives in the third quarter stopped by mistakes. Those include a fumble, holding on a fourth down pickup, and lineman downfield negating a big pass play. Had the offense been a little more efficient there the defense probably is a little more rested and more effective. As it is, the Cajuns DOMINATED the fourth quarter. Finally stopped QB run in red zone to force FG, rammed in down their throats to take lead, pressured QB to force turnover on downs, and rammed it down their throats again to run clock out. These victories are in many ways more satisfying than the blow outs as it demonstrates a team that finds a way regardless of the circumstances.

Some have commented about how often the zebas shorted our players. Agreed it was pretty bad. Not sure it actually costed us points though.

One big side benefit to having a great football season, RP and TOS has been pretty much mutt free.

They sure cost us 7 points on that terrible Pass Interference call.

Yes it did as that was on a third and long play. FG attempt probably would have followed. Call cost us at least 4 points.

We did the obvious hold and got too far downfield on a pass play. Don’t know if we score on either drive but very close to field goal range at least. After Ragas fumble in a great drive, we seemed to lose focus. Only Ref call I didn’t like was PI in end zone. Seemed no flag.

Those three mistakes prevented game from being a blowout. The two penalties you referenced took away a fourth down conversion and a big gain on a pass play. What is unfortunate is that neither penalty contributed to what would have been successful plays. Of course you rarely play a perfect game and it was satisfying to overcome those issues and DOMINATE the fourth quarter.
