      I expected a better effort in the first quarter than we saw. I knew this would be a tough game considering all of the injuries on both sides of the ball.

      I give the team credit for not giving up, even though they were destroyed in the first quarter. At least some kids got some needed playing time. This may benefit us next year.

      I’m sorry, but some horrible play calling, again, put this game is essentially out of reach. You go down 14-0 after a blocked punt and you come out with a bunch of ineffective runs up the middle. Go 3 and out and then go down 21-0. We finally start moving the ball but it’s a little late when you throw an int in the red zone and go 28-0.

      Also rumors flu was going around this week. Still, the TD punt block and 2 INT did us in. Otherwise, we had more yards, 1st downs, TOP. Sucks, but lost as a team.

        Third down conversions. That killed Utah again. Lack of chaos plays on defense again. Just feels like they are wore out.

          Too many key injuries to overcome….But we still have a shot at 9-4 & a final ranking….That would be remarkable.
