00:00 Really disappointing, missing this opportunity right here.
00:06 Everybody was ready, and this was a great one, and we missed it.
00:13 We went right on defense in the running game again, and so it's been bad.
00:21 As you can see, we played better in the second half,
00:24 we got 47 yards in the second half, but the first half, they had to wait with it.
00:28 And so some stuff we gotta get ready for our last opportunity next week.
00:35 But we know the side of the ball to move the ball, but
00:37 we didn't get the ball enough.
00:38 We didn't get the ball back to the offense.
00:41 Minimal amount of drive, it was just the clock was just roaring in their favor.
00:45 So I'm surprised we didn't play better.
00:51 We did the things we needed in the game plan, and
00:55 we called everything that we had, and we didn't stop them consistently.
00:58 Both the running backs did a really nice job against us, and
01:01 it was just more than we could handle on this day.
01:04 A couple guys got banged up.
01:07 Kenny couldn't play, got his shoulder banged again.
01:11 So that was tough.
01:13 He banged his knee again too.
01:15 And I got hit in the head and needed a brace.
01:19 So there's some guys we'll have to figure out what's going on with them next week.
