Saturday’s pre-game games at SAE proved to be far more entertaining and satisfying than the game that went on later at the Big House. SAE went into the pit with over 30 guys in their matching gold and purple Under Armour looking clean and fresh… sort of like the Laker girls. The 20 or so Phi Psis looked slightly hobbled and bruised even before the kickoff (They did win four games to get there). It didn’t take long for SAE to take advantage, with three touchdowns in the first half, taking an 18-0 lead going into the break. And what a break it was…

The halftime show (/main event) consisted of the championship match-up between Alpha Phi and Tri-Delt. Both teams struggled to move the ball on offense thanks to a healthy dose of mud wrestling and hair pulling. The closest anyone got to scoring any points was when an Alpha Phi tackled a Tri-Delt very close to her own end zone. The referees ruled, however, that there was no safety. The highly competitive game ended with a score that resembled each of their post-game satisfaction levels, 0-0.

Phi Psi dug deep after SAE promptly scored their 4th touchdown to start the second half and made a run of their own. Phi Psi scored a touchdown, forced a safety and responded with another touchdown and two point conversion, closing the gap to a one possession game, 24-16. In the end, SAE kept their poise and closed the game with two touchdowns of their own, winning 36-16 and extending their ridiculous winning streak to 11 years.
