2010 Season: Game #3

Game #3 has come and gone. And all we can say is "whew!" what a weekend it was!

This was a weekend our family personally was looking forward to because 13 family members from good ol' western Kansas made the trek to Norman to watch a Sooner football game. It was a trip they had been planning for months, and we had been anticipating for months!

The Musil's from western Kansas arrived Friday night and spent an evening in downtown OKC, better known as Bricktown, with their trusty guide..me!

Saturday was the big game: Ou vs Air Force. It was our first experience playing Air Force and everyone decided we hope that these two teams play again in the future. It was a very patriotic day, including fly-overs by jets, a performance by the Air Force band, and a special tribute to all the branches of the US military.

Air Force was a worthy opponent. Their offense is fascinating to watch, but I'm sure the OU defense would have other ways of saying it! Marshall played on punt return again this weekend. Even though he'll probably take the field countless times throughout his college career, I can't help but shake with excitement when he's in. His work on punt return was very well done this weekend.

The Sooners squeaked by Air Force with a 27-24 win.




Also traveling long distance to the game were our next door neighbors from Osborne, KS, Steve and Sarah Waugh. And Dad's former football player and good friend, Heath Morgan.















We are so very thankful for all the people who have supported Marshall throughout his life. He, and we his family, are so very blessed to have friends and family that are willing to drive such long distances and take time out of their busy lives to come support him. Our gratitude is so deep. Even though I might say thank you a million times throughout this blog, please know that I would say it a million more if I were given the chance.

This weekend the Sooners tackle the Cincinnati Bearcats in Ohio. Unfortunately, the Football Freelancer will not be attending, but rest assured that this will be the ONLY game in Marshall's college career that I miss!!!!!!!!

Stay tuned ;)
