REMEMBER THESE KEYS TO VICTORY YESTERDAY? I DO AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT C-BUS DID TO PRESERVE A 56-55 WIN OVER THE TAMPA BAY STORM IN THE WILD CARD ROUND YESTERDAY. EVEN THOUGH THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE 3RD QUARTER THEY NEEDED TO, THEY MADE IT OUT ALIVE WITH THE SCORE BEING TIED AT 42. THE DEFENSE WASN'T THERE BUT FORCED A TURNOVER EARLY IN THE SECOND AND RETURNING THAT FOR A TOUCHDOWN. BJ BARRE PICKED A PASS OFF AT THE GOAL LINE AND RETURNED IT UNTOUCHED THE OTHER WAY TO GIVE C-BUS A 21-14 LEAD. TAMPA WAS THE TEAM THAT HURT THEMSELVES THE MOST. WHEN A KICKER WHO HAD PREVIOUSLY HIT THE IRON 4 TIMES IN A ROW ON XP'S, WHY WOULD YOU TAKE A DELAY OF GAME TO MOVE HIM BACK 5 YARDS AND MAKE THE XP DIFFICULT. WITH 1:06 TO PLAY IN THE GAME, TAMPA WAS AHEAD 55-49 WHEN THEY TOOK A DELAY OF GAME. THEN WHAT TAMPA FANS FEARED THE WORST CAME TRUE. THE KICKER MISSED THE XP AND GAVE ALL MOMENTUM BACK TO C-BUS. WITH THAT SAID, QB MATT NAGY DROVE HIS TEAM ON 7 PLAYS DOWN THE FIELD AND SCORE HIMSELF FROM 1 YARD OUT WITH 6 SECONDS LEFT. WITH TIME FOR ONLY ONE FIELD GOAL TAMPA WOULD ATTEMPT A 54 YARDER THAT WENT WIDE LEFT. C-BUS WAS LEFT STANDING AND STORMED OUT OF TAMPA 56-55 WINNERS.

C-BUS WILL PLAY DALLAS NEXT SATURDAY ON ESPN FOR THE RIGHT TO ADVANCE TO THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. DALLAS YOU MAY HAVE BEATEN US TWICE IN THE REGULAR SEASON BUT THE 3RD TIME BELONGS TO US.
PREDICTION: C-BUS-66 DALLAS-62.
