against experience extra goes growth physical senior sophomore start three weight
When another team's senior lineman goes against a sophomore lineman, that's experience and physical growth and at least two extra years in the weight room. We can't make up for three years, but we can start right now.
ahead three weight
They're three years ahead of us in the weight room.
blown couple defensive gave shape snaps three
We had a couple of blown defensive assignments that gave Wicksburg some big plays. We got a little big-eyed and we got tired. We had 101 snaps in three quarters. They were in better shape than we were.
four guys hopefully hoping row three
Hopefully we can look back and say that's how we got into the playoffs. We had 20 guys show up tonight. We're hoping we can reel off three or four in a row and keep it rolling.
feelings good last played start team towards year
With them being the last team we played against, we don't have too many good feelings for them, and they probably don't have too many good feelings towards us. They're our number-one rival; it's a good way to start the year off.

We're better than we were yesterday, and hopefully we're getting better every day. We're getting used to each other the more time we spend on ice.

There are a lot of distractions with homecoming. Hopefully, we can shelter them as much as we can from that.
clicking fought good minute power ran time
Our power play was clicking pretty good there, and unfortunately we couldn't get another minute there on the clock. We competed, fought back, but time just ran out.
help highly hurricane personnel resources since spell
Our personnel are highly trained, so it would help spell the resources down there that have been going since the hurricane hit.
allowed ancient challenges complexity current entirely error evolution evolved found functions genes millions molecular process selection techniques work
Our work demonstrates a fundamental error in the current challenges to Darwinism. New techniques allowed us to see how ancient genes and their functions evolved hundreds of millions of years ago. We found that complexity evolved piecemeal through a process of Molecular Exploitation -- old genes, constrained by selection for entirely different functions, have been recruited by evolution to participate in new interactions and new functions.
frustrates stick wait
It frustrates the other team. You just stick with it and wait for your chances.
feels tougher
It feels fine. It's just tougher to get up. But it feels great.
