Can the 7th ranked Cougars withstand the pressure?
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008After listening to the nightly news, I was discouraged to hear how much pressure the Cougars are feeling. With the increased pressure of having to win comes a giant bulls-eye and all the “negatives” that come along with being the team to beat.

I think they are starting to see that perfection is very possible, and the only ones that can screw it up are themselves.
History is filled with choke artists like the 1990 Buffalo Bills, Chris Webber and the fab five, and who could forget this past year’s Memphis Tigers? (All they needed to do was make some free throws. Come on, you saps!) (more…)
