Wildcat fan here. Congrats on a clean and well-fought game. You saw a pretty good synopsis of the Wildcats today: consistent effort, few penalties/bonehead plays, and nothing flashy. This has been the recipe for the Cats' 10-win season. Consistency will get you pretty good results in college ball, and the Cats have been remarkable for their ability to avoid long stretches of bad play in 2012.
The interceptions were uncharacteristic of both teams. I think a lot has to do with the long layoff, which is a problem for bowl teams. I would prefer to see the regular season start a bit later so teams can play into early December.
It was very obvious we did not see the best Bulldog team today. Penalties, interceptions, and some poor tackling will drive a fan crazy. Been down that road with my Cats in many years prior.
It is great for the Cats to get a bowl win and end all this talk of the bowl losing streak. Nice to beat a classy program like the one at MSU, even if today's game was not their best effort.
Good luck next season and beyond. I will be following the Bulldogs next year. Best wishes for a happy new year and prosperity in 2013.
