Put on my green tennis shoes and
I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Liberty Bowl
In the middle of a green parade

Coach Dan McCarney
Won't you look down over me
Yeah, I got a Liberty Bowl ticket
and I'm as green as a boy can be

Then I'm bowling in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Bowling in Memphis
Is this really real?

I saw the ghost of Hayden on Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of the stadium
Then I watched him walk right through

Now, security did not see him
They just hovered round the entrance
But there's a pretty major bowl game
Waiting for the fans
And it's down on the Memphis field

When I was bowling in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Bowling in Memphis
Is this really real?

Now, they've got hot girls on the sidelines
They've touchdowns on the field
And Coach MaCarney, be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
But boy you got a prayer in Memphis

Now, Talons shoot the cannon
And they run the flags after scores
And they brought me down to field level
And they asked me if I would
Run the Big Ass Flag
And I ran with all my might
They said, "Tell me are a Mean Green fan?"
And I said, "Man I am for life!"

Bowling in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Bowling in Memphis
Is this really real?

      Parking

      I missed the creation of the Brown lot. Is this the first year of it's existence? One of our crew went early enough to be first to park in that lot Saturday. He was just carrying a plastic grocery bag of snacks so it worked well for him, priced $15. GMG

      The Black Lot was easy-peasy. Up your game.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      The McGill non-TD was 50/50. With my green glasses on, the ball broke the goal line more or less as his knee hit. The problem was that they didn’t call it a TD and therefore harder to call the TD on replay when that close. The real problem is our inability to get TDs when in the redzone, particularly short yardage. Can’t run for one yard and it’s pathetic. Should never need to pass from the one yard line and if we do it should be some kind of play action misdirection to a block and release TE. The play calling in general was terrible this game. The decision making (on sides kick) was even worse. On a related note, the non-fumble and the PI call were ridiculous. I can sort-of, kind-of see the PI call because it was a bang bang play and refs are human, but the fumble was a fumble and they got it wrong live and on replay. The AD needs to file a protest to the league. That ref should be suspended.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      So was the radio play-by-play. Wish there was a video replay for me to see this. I also wish there was better checks-and-balances. In the NFL, can't a team submit a replay of a call to the NFL office for review, even if it doesn't mean a change in the final score? At least there would be some transparency and accountability. Based on the radio play by play, you would think that giving McGill the TD was a no-brainer, and the game might have ended up very differently. An option offense playing from behind is very different from one playing to keep a lead.. (granted, it was still early in our game)

      No moral victories

      We knew this 3-game stretch of Memphis, Tulane and Army would be tough. We lost by 8, 8 and 11 points. We are another year away (with better players and coaches).
