A significant part of what earned Lemont its third straight playoff appearance last season was a victory over the team that had a 21-year playoff streak.

Lemont nearly did it again to playoff veteran Richards on Friday night until Tommie Thomas, the Bulldogs' elusive 6-foot-2-inch, 180-pound quarterback, took control of the game in the final drive.

Thomas scored on a 4-yard scramble with three seconds left to tie the score and Xavier McKinney kicked the winning extra point as the No. 13 Bulldogs (4-0) stunned the No. 17 Indians 23-22 in Lemont.

"I had a little doubt on the sidelines," Thomas admitted after Lemont (3-1) scored twice in the fourth quarter to turn a 16-7 deficit into a 22-16 Indians lead.

By John "this should raise concerns" Decker at the IU site. Thomas is mainly looking at Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Colorado, and Kansas State. Thomas says it was comforting to see Lynch get his new contract, and he knows Indiana really wants him.
