University of Illinois vs. Indiana University. We got smushed 36-13, but oh well. I have shots that I think better convey the sense of pride (ie lots of helmets together in a huddle etc.) but I just thought this was more interesting. As usual, not shot for the challenge, but I feel its appropriate, if not then people will let me know!
rotate, resize, levels, lil border, convert to lab color, usm on lightness channel, back to rgb and save for web.

Not sure about the challenge but this is an awesome picture. I just shot my first football game this past weekend and I have a new found respect for sports photogs. Good job. 7
OMG i hate american football, so this pains me so but...perfect photo with a perfect fit to the theme! The pride of your sports team sucedding is something everyone can associate with, and FABULOUS action shot. I love that the ball is flying right at the camera.
