[NU Sports] I don't mean to tell you "I told you so" but . . .

[John Labbe]

But unlike many of our exciting wins, I was happy that we were never 
coming from behind once we took the lead in the third quarter.  
Actually, I can't remember another big win like this (close, exciting, 
and a big upset) where we weren't coming from behind (or trying to 
break a tie) at some point fairly late in the game.

Now, I don't mean to excuse our giving up 2 TDs late, but still, we 
kept the lead once we took it.  Our six straight touchdowns were 
amazing.
