Santa has continued to improve, my guess is that he will learn from his mistakes tonight.

Not at all sure about Carey though.

Carey did nearly everything right tonight.
He held Penny the best RB in the nation!
He limited their offense.
He outplayed their incredible offense.
He scored 4 offensive TD's.
He made excellent second half adjustments.
Had Santa executed properly in the end NIU would have won, and Carey would be a hero.

Though i dont agree with the throw for the endzone (rather run the ball since itnwss working and kill the clock), I think the coaching staff did well tonight. We outplayed the #19 team but santa and our special teams made some mistakes that cost us.
