It's the equivalent of hitting a home run in your first at-bat or throwing for a touchdown with your first pass. This race can instantly build momentum for your team.

He is at home going crazy over this and I would imagine he will come back much more conservative. In some ways I am disappointed because he has always been one to drive technology in our sport.
