renaissance Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Ya U of R! I'm mad I only watched a few min of the game - apparently they drove 90 yds in the final 1:30 w/ no timeouts to get the winning score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've totally disowned that family, they've been an embarrassment to the school. But seriously, good luck to Richmond. I won't say as much for UVA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACW Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 SC, I agree. You mean, they actually have a FINAL, as in, a TOURNAMENT, where, you know, you actually have to WIN games to get in the finals? What a novel :idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
