Aha.... as planned, eh?Either team could have a rookie that will be the difference in this game. It is far from over.
I hadn't thought it all day, but I just realized that this could be a very exciting game.
I'll go out on a limb and make a prediction:
The difference in the game will be made by a rookie.
