Texas (Chad) 14 - Texas (Roel) 45

This is how you screw up a game. First, have your Xbox lock up with 2:59 to go in the first half. Next, restart the game and finish off the remaining minutes.

Now instead of quitting normally, select "Friendly Quit." If your opponent accepts the friendly quit, not only will you lose the ability to save replays, the stats will also not get sent. Awesome.

In the second part of the game, Chad scored off of an interception and then drove the ball down field to tie it up 14 - 14. At this point I got very frightened, but my boys scored the next 31 unanswered points (with one pick six).

I'm not sure how I am going to handle the stats for this game in the spreadsheet. Here are the stats from the first 7 minutes of the game:
