In a game filled with illogical play-calling, we defeated Stonehill 30-24 (
boxscore here). Up six late in the game, we were throwing, and down six with one chance to tie the game, they ran it four consecutive times. I've never been one to have issues with the mechanics of games, but that was really bad. At least we came out on top.
It gets much tougher in the round of 16, as we get Lane.

This is an absolute D2 powerhouse. The coach has never lost a conference game in 10 seasons, a run that's included two national championships. To put things in perspective, our one loss this year was a 37-33 heartbreaker against Kentucky State. Lane thrashed Kentucky State 45-0 in regular-season play before beating them 33-6 in the SIAC title game.
We have our hands full here. This is a team that does everything well, and they're a real threat to go far in this bracket. We've had a really good season here, and I'd be delighted with a win, but we're absolutely the underdogs in this one.
