I was fortunate enough to be on the field on Saturday and started posting some photos to my 500px account. They are not for sale or distribution (I'm just trying to build a portfolio right now) but I thought some people might be interested in taking a look. I'll be adding more over the next day or two.

A few notes:
1. I'm happy to report that the game day management staff at RU is first class. Not only competent, but pretty friendly as well.
2. The photo of James breaking off his run was going into the recycle bin until I noticed that neither James nor his trailing defender had their feet on the ground in the photo. It's one of those things that you can't unsee - it looks like they were Photoshopped floating above the turf. I shot this all the way from the opposite end zone. The fact that it's just two guys and a LOT of turf actually helps tell the story.
3. The photo of Cook handing off to Holmes is from his 30 yard run,and may be the infamous play where Turay was held. He's bent over awkwardly in this photo. A few frames later, Turay was sitting on the ground.
