    It seems like for years now that Rob Bironas has been as good as they come, but missing two field goals Sunday almost cost us our first win.

    Is Rob losing it?

    Well he hit the 20 before that so its a little too early to say hes losing it. Could just be a bad game. We'll see throughout the season I suppose.

    Rob Bironas kicked the game-winning field goal, a 26-yarder in overtime, but he was also kicking himself for missing two attempts. His tries from 41 and 48 yards sailed wide left.

    “I should have hit the two earlier and we wouldn’t have been in that position,” he said. “It wasn’t my prettiest game, but the boys stepped up and picked up my slack.”

    Bironas hurt his left ankle on a first quarter kickoff when he hit a sand patch in the Bermuda turf, causing him to slide. He said the injury didn’t cause the misses; he blamed those on bad technique.

    Bironas also tied his franchise record by kicking a 20th consecutive field goal, something he’s now done three times. His miss in the third quarter snapped the streak.

    “You’d like to get 21, but streaks are made to be broken,” he said.

    If he is hurt, I hope he gets over it really quick. 6 points will matter next week.

    He sucked big time today. We should have KILLED them!!!!

    6 points right on #2.

    Wright's fumble

    Locker's ridiculous fumble


    Those mistakes up there could have easily translated to 16 points or more that we threw away. But boy, was our return unit on fire today. Taylor Thompson earned his season paycheck today with his block on that kick. Leveled the guy.

    There's no logical reason to think he sucks.
