All of the talk and struggles of the season aside:
It was good to see the players and Coach Stock happy and celebrating the bowl win on the field. Those guys needed that. Heck, the whole program needed that. The whole atmosphere surrounding MT football seems to be the least toxic or negative in a long time. It's kind of nice. Bowl wins for the team, the whole program, are good accomplishments.
All of that while still stinging from the bball loss to Auburn. Argh! I imagine the team would love to have another shot at Auburn. Just about everything went wrong in the 1st half, and most ref calls seemed to add insult to injury. It was pretty impressive to see them fight back into the game in the 2nd half. And that with 4/5 starters fouled out on the bench! I never did find out where those refs were from. Makes me wonder if they were $EC?? Oh well, hopefully they can carry that fight from the 2nd half into the coming games.
