Aidan’s Fantasy Growing up i've always liked football. The Dallas Cowboys to be exact. My fantasy would to play on the Cowboy’s team, and now that fantasy is coming true. Ring, Ring, Ring. My alarm goes off as I wake up. I sit there and ponder a little bit thinking of what the day holds for me today. First day of practice I think to myself. I walk on the field not knowing what to expect. Will they make fun of me or laugh at me. But it was silent except the smashing of the players getting hit. Coach puts me in at running back to see what i've got. As the ball is snapped the ball is put in my arms. And i'm running down the line as I see a linebacker coming straight at me.

I'm about to walk out when he says that the star running back got hurt and I need you to sud for him tomorrow. The next day came I got dressed and I was ready to play. Kickoff begins as i’m sitting on the bench watching and cheering them on. Tackled at the 26 yard line. First play on and I get the ball. Ball is snapped and it's a pitch to me. I'm running at half speed trying to concentrate on where to go. All I hear is the crowd roaring. And all the sudden i’m hit out of bounds for a gain of 48 yards. Half time hits as the score is Dallas 28 and Patriots 34. Coach starts talking about the game and how we need to make a comeback, but all I can think about is the expression on the defender's face. The anger and tense on his face was unbelievable. The next Quarter come and goes and there's 30 seconds on the clock. And the score is Dallas 42 And Patriots 45. As were in the huddle, last play says the QB let’s make it count. The ball is snapped and the ball is now in my arms. It was a clear gap to the endzone and I take it. Running full speed and then I hear something. I turn my head and see that crazy look one more time. I stop and he runs right past me and in the

    The ball goes up and over my head to land perfectly in the route of the Rocky Mount attacker. I turned and put everything I had into cutting off the strikers angle at the goal. We sprint down the length of the sidelines but he remains two steps ahead of me. He has a one on one with the goalie and he rocket it dead center at out keeper, who handles it easily enough. I have been catching strikers since freshman year but this time I wasn 't able to catch up, and it wasn 't due to the opposing player being faster than me.

    Three seconds left on the clock, a single play on the one-yard line determines the outcome of not just the game, but also the SEC victor, and bragging rights. The game goes into commercial break at that moment only adding on to the anxiety and tension; I could feel my heart beating even faster and could even see it beat through my lucky Florida shirt signed by Tim Tebow. The game comes back on, LSU lines up and the roar of the fans shakes the camera. Florida lines up looking composed on the outside, but driving by fear on the inside.

    The next was a rush to our running back, Devonta Freeman who rushed it for 7 yards. Again we rushed but Marcus Mariota was sacked before we could hand the ball of, and the ball was fumbles, and recovered by the Patriots.

I also knew that if the Patriots continued to play like this, then this game would be "lights out.
