The Cats crushed the Illinoise State Redbirds 37-3, blitzing them with 30 points in the first half.
Dan Persa continued his super-efficient passing attack, completing another 85% or so of his pass attempts, including several TD throws. More amazingly, the run game peeked out of its hidey hole and amassed a few yards on the ground.
The weather did not cooperate and portions of the West Lot (including our parking spot) were deep underwater. Its not often you get to see your brother bailing water from a pot hole with a beer cup. Good times!
Next up for the Cats is Rice. Rice played Texas close in week 1, but could only manage to sneak by North Texas "Mean Green" 32-31 in week 2. Considering the Mean Green's ratty record (5 wins in the previous four years), this bodes well for the Cats in week 3.
