[NU Sports] Proud of the boys and proud of Fitz!

[Beamsley, Jeff]

Heard later on the btn wrapup that RW first put this fake in the NU  
playbook.

Fitz practiced it this week for the seniors. When he callled it on the  
sidelines everyone agreed.

I'm sad about the outcome too. Auburn wasn't faster or more talented  
than us. We beat them on the field. We just came up short on the  
scoreboard.

As others have said, this team overachieved and earned everyone's  
respect because of their heart.

We missed getting the bowl monkey off our back, but there is still  
hope for losing our tourney virginity.

Go Cats!

Jeff

PS Also good to hear we sold our ticket allotment and got some props  
on TV for it.
