[NU Sports] is Trumpy out?

[wildelk2 at aol.com]

     Pride will show up today.  Coach Walk used to say, "It's not Chuckles the Clown around here."   And if Punk Bielema attempts to run up the score, I say Fitz himself should run over to Wisconsin's sideline and lay him out.  Man, I'd love an upset, can't see it but we'll leave with our dignity and won't back in to whatever bowl we end up in.

   GO CATS!!           Eric

 I have a question for everyone--call me a "cock-eyed optimist", to quote 

Rodgers and Hammerstein.? Somehow I expect NU--and Watkins in particular--to 

show up better (and earlier) on the big stage this week--despite the daunting 

odds.? Do I really anticipate a win?? No, but in contrast to the Wrigleyville 

Classic, all of the pressure this time around is on Bucky, not Willie.? Nobody 

expects us to even come close--last time I looked the oddsmakers had us as 24 

1/2 point 'dogs.? So why not come out foot loose and fancy-free, and play "up", 

instead of "down"?? I think Fitz and Hank will have their "young men" ready to 

rumble, and we will hang tougher than anyone expects.? And I look for Quentin 

Davie, in his last BT game, to play like a monster.? He has not played as well 

over second half of season--don't know if he is hurt--but it's time for the 

first-half of season dominator to show up.



Now for the question:? If we somewhow pull off one of the upsets of the 

year--and Illinois loses to Fresno State and RichRod again falls to 

Tressel--both very realistic scenarios--what bowl do the 'Cats go to?



OK, Listers, fire away--can our boys make it to the Insight, so that SJT finally 

gets his fervent wish?? Or do they do the "Texas Two-Step" in Houston?

I like that analogy to 1994 - I remember that game well. Hope Jim L. is right!
