Blogging the Brett Bush Bowl 3rd Quarter

Wow there's a giant fire in San Bruno, looks like a gas main or a plane crash.



Kickoff

Back to the3 Vikings ala Brett
Peterson starts off running to the sideline for a first down.
Another first down rush Peterson up the middle.
Second down Peterson again
Third down and a couple of yards Crappy long floating pass almost intercepted.
Punt and very little return.

First down will the Saints even try to rush?
They tried and got absolutely nothing.
Second and 10 Bush finally got in a decent run, 10 yds up the middle on an enema draw.
First down Bush again about 6 yds up the gut.
Another rushing first down.
Talking heads talking about the Heisman. Face it Bush's Heisman is toast. But Bush is too dumb to renounce it before they take it away.
Another rushing first down. Complete turnaround from the first half.
First down nice fake and bootleg by Breeze, but too slow Sack!
Second down offside 5 yds pass for 1st on the 21.
Swing pass inside the 10 yd line.
Non Bush back (Thomas I think) barrels through to the 1 yd line.
Thomas up the middle TD 14 9 Saints leading

I'm quitting the play by play after this quarter. Color announcing only. When the Packers or 49ers aren't playing I don't have enough to say.
