Eheh, seems as though Wade inherited a bit of Bum's wit.

Well, this one really is meaningless unless you're a coach or bubble boy. No 1A starters tonight. Still, should make for some interesting drama as guys try to fight for that last roster spot....

Vikes win the toss and will receive.

Vikes bring the kickoff back to the 34 but penalty on the play against the Vikes. Starting at their 14 yard line.

I guess Joel Meyers doesn't realize Gerhart is Caucasian.

Braman is great at beating blocks and terrible at tackling. Man, this is frustrating.

I don't care if it's the ones, the twos or the fourteens, this team's return game is an absolute abomination.

I'm glad to see that Kubiak is in midseason form in terms of challenges. What an idiot.

You guys who are talking about 10-6, 11-5, playoffs, etc., forget that the head coach of the the team is a moron.

Challenge on the last play.... Texans challenged that the ball went into the endzone. Play stands as called, Texans lose a timeout.

Obie for no gain.

Pass over the middle to Townsel goes inc. Makes it 3rd and 10.

Obie gets about 5 so Texans to punt deep in their own territory...

Punt gets out to Texan 43 as not much on the return..

Robinson for about 2 up the middle.

Punt goes out of bounds at the Texan 3.
