[NU Sports] nice start

[DPENDERG at aol.com]

After a sputtering first half, Cats picked it up and had a  solid, satisfying 
win, including a good performance by a rookie QB.   The success is a special 
tribute to the team and the coaches after the tragic,  traumatic summer.  At 
the same time, let's be brutally honest:  green  and inexperienced, Miami is 
nothing close to what the Cats will play in the  Big Ten, so there's a lot of 
improvement needed before they face Penn State in a  month, which I'm sure Fitz 
is the first one to admit.  Nevada itself will  be a much bigger challenge 
than what we saw in Oxford.

Yes, the  second half was great.  The team gained confidence as the game 
went  on, and you have to like that aspect of it.  Fitz looked great and  
sounded even better on the postgame show.  I only wish that we had  
brought in some subs to mop up the last couple of times we had the  
ball.  You'd sure hate to see Kafka or Sutton, for example, get hurt  in 
garbage time.  But, hey, 21-3 is way more than I could have hoped  for.  
Go Cats!  -- Jim B.
