PSU Alum Catches Manning's record setting touchdown

Post by wbtfg » Mon Dec 23, 2013 1:32 pm

I saw that Julius Thomas caught Peyton's 51st touchdown pass of the year. Thomas didn't realize it and didn't hang on to the ball, but Eric Decker made the head's up play and grabbed it.

Here's a funny quote afterwards from Manning:

“Julius, it wouldn't’t have surprised me if he had handed it to some babe up in the stands and tried to get her phone number in exchange for the ball. That’d be right up Julius’ alley."


Julius Thomas is having a monster year, and probably the best BSC alum in the NFL right now.

Jared Allen is still a very good player. He's having a "down" year, but still has 9.5 sacks with a game to go.


Seattle to Billings to Missoula to Bozeman to Portland to Billings

What a ride

Just think-if Julius Thomas had concentrated on football in college for 4 years instead of basketball, the Bobcats might have made it to the NCAA tournament, instead of losing in the Big Sky Conference championship game by two on an obvious non-called charge by Thomas. Oh well...he's on my fantasy team now, and Manning's stat padding touchdown to Thomas at the end of the game Sunday got me a big win! Yea me!

He was on my team too. A championship team to be correct. ;)


Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.
