Psychology Trumps Physiology Most of the Time

Bobby Bowden, Florida State's head coach said, "When two teams are evenly matched, attitude and leadership are the key to winning." I believe that.

Attitude is the psychology of winning. The old phrase, "If you don't think you can, you're probably right," is a good reminder to always stay possitive. Our football team believes in itself and this week will be a great test of our resolve to believe no matter what. So how do you beat a team that is favored by 30 points? You have to never stop believing and play every play hard. I'm not making it up. I've seen a team that was severely outclassed on paper, almost beat a team that was favored by 55 points. The kids refused to give up and let up.

When it happens for us we'll be one of the most dominating football teams in the state. And it's right around the corner.
