This was my first game in the renovated "Shoe. It is definitely as advertised. If I took anything away from this weekend, it was what a HUGE impact Andy Geiger had on the school. We tailgated, many thanks to Scooter, outside of the Jesse Owens track center, walked by the Davis baseball stadium, checked out the hockey game at the Schott and watched tOSU win the Midwest rugby championship on a beautiful pitch down Lane at Beeker under the lights. None of that existed not all that long ago when I was there as a student. Many thanks, Andy.
The move Holmes put on to score in the second half was among the best I've seen and seeing Teddy and Hawk live was really something. Seeing Hopalong at the half accept the 50th anniversary Heisman award was something special that I didn't expect.
Finally, there aren't words for how I felt sitting in C-Deck with the woman I love. I look forward to being there with her children.
