From the comment section
“Great pics, well done Andy.”
“A GOD SENT MAN FOR DEDICATING UR LIFE FOR THE PEOPLE. ALL GLORY BE TO GOD.”
“I used to live and die by BC Athletics. Now I just don’t care. Clearly the school doesn’t care either. Give it up and drop to FCS.”
“As ugly as it gets. Twelve injured starters?? Wasn’t sure how many. Let’s hope the rest of the seasons goes better. Still love my Eagles 🏈”
