A win for one is a win for all! - Part VII

Continued from: A win for one is a win for all!

Utah held its ground, but fate flirted with our despairs before granting our hopes.  This is the story of the second half of this march… survive and advance.  Don’t be allured by those falling around you on the road, but be mindful always of the task at hand.

There will be conflicts, strife among friends.  Oregon, Michigan, Wisconsin and Auburn each got wounded by allies and friends. We too will have our fights from within.

Companions and allies may fall in the weeks lying ahead, but each must stay focused on each step along the way.  This is the lessons from Fresno State’s defeat.  This valiant and strong ally has tripped on a stone.  As traps wait for us, so too for our foes.  South Florida and Connecticut both fell unexpectedly, dashing all hopes of finishing strong.

3 of us sit in the top 14 now.  Ohio State alone sits in the way of our second seat, though Michigan State and Northwestern have designs on it as well.  Perhaps even a spot in a seat of honor can be taken, the two glorious thrones for those chosen to compete for it all.  But for now the game is survive and advance, and always remember…

A WIN FOR ONE IS A WIN FOR ALL!

Tell me what ya'll think...

It feels like I caught a wave and its about to break on me at any moment…

But the ride is great, so I stay on the board, and know the wall of water and sand down below will hurt like tonne of bricks if it does.

Well since that is how you feel...

I am not going to break this tradition for this season as long as the results remain good.
