Well, I’m not celebrating a national championship for my Jackrabbits today. A touchdown catch in the final 16 seconds gave Sam Houston State the win in a wild and entertaining game.
Now, the Jackrabbits have to turn around and get ready to play another season starting about four months from now. The wear and tear of football is incredible and it will be quite a feat for SDSU to do that successfully - much less experience the same level of success for this past season.
I’ll still be cheering for them, win or lose.
