It was a very seasaw battle at first, but the Owls prevailed and won this game. They knock off the highest opponent in the top 25 in school history, as they begin their season off on the right end. Coach Arthur Daniels had this to say after the game. "We came in here today, not looking to beat a top 25 team, not looking to wow the nation, but to earn it's respect. These kids fight hard, each and every week, each and every practice, each and every game, each and every play, and they deserve some accolades. Now we may not be the best team on paper, but when it comes down to stepping on that field, I don't see another team who can beat us. Our guys, trust and believe that they can not only win, but win by large margins, and beat the best of the best teams. Our kids think...............no they KNOW they can beat teams like ALABAMA, PENN STATE, and OHIO STATE, because in our minds, in our heads, WE ARE THE #1 TEAM IN THE COUNTRY."
After defeating the LSU Tigers 38-21, they may not be the best team in the nation, but they have the chance of beating the best team in the nation next week as they face Alabama. The Owls are on a impressive run, defeating #10 Oklahoma last year in the Fiesta bowl, and this year defeating formally known as #3 LSU. But can they continue their big game success against the best team in the country...the Alabama Crimson Tide?
