2nd play of game....Randell picks off Jennings Blue cash in a Harris plunge, after some hard running Lions drive down to the Blue 14..... ...but Leggett forces Jennings to fumble...Bass recovers.. Passes to Dressler and Adams...couple of BC penalties..... ...sets up Medlock FG......Bombers out of the gate - 11-0 Andrew Harris running like he wants to finish business.... Blue D vanishes...BC marches 75 yds for TD, in short order... Blue pull double end-around fake....hits Dressler for 60 yds... Next play. Nichols hits Smith on wide open post pattern 27 yd TD Bombers throwing it down the field to Smith, in this one. The play action is giving the Lions D some trouble... ...Nichols then rolls out and hits that Smith fella for 35 yd TD ...Smith making me eat something, with my gin, at this point. BC 6 penalties - Blue 0....not sure how long that will last..... Moe Leggett still making plays....so is Randle..... 25-6....looks good. But Bombers can't stand prosperity..... Wild misses tackle on Rainey (along with 3 others) for big YAC Wild then whiffs on Johnson's TD run....just like that..... 25-15. Not getting the pressure on Jennings...we had at start.... McDuffie not getting much room on kick returns...... Nichols bombs down the sideline to JFG.....sets up Medlock FG.. The ole even up process begins...Bombers take 3 penalties ...on BD drive to help set up Jennings TD run... Loffler called for playing through the ball - and cold cocking Manny A. Bomber D can't close the deal on 2nd down BC conversions.... BC challenges on long pass defended by Randle...they get it.... ...which completely flips field position.... ...but Lions get called for roughing the kicker... ...and passes to Smith and Denmark get them in position for Medlock. 31-19.....a few more stops on D....and things are looking good Ok, things are not looking good.....Lions march right down the field..... ....Jennings hits Sinkfield for TD. 31-26 Bombers....D looks worn out. Hoping for game saving turnover.....or else. Next series....D playing way off receivers and not getting pressure.... Jennings breaks pocket...runs it 15 yds for the TD........BC 32-31..... After McDuffie return...Nichols trots out with 58 sec left..... 2nd down pass knocked down......3rd and 4....gamble time... Incredibly ....Medlock come out to attempt 61 yarder in dead air dome... ...which falls well short......game over. Wonder how Nichols felt, when that call was made? But this loss is not on him or Medlock.... ... or even MOS.....tempting as that might be..... ..it falls right on this defense, which blew a 25-6 lead..... Down the stretch...simply no rush, no cover, no tackling...... Looked like a Jim Daley D out there. Terrible. This team made some strides...but still missing some pieces.... I have made some strides....but still missing some bottles....
