They say you’re never out of a game until the clock strikes zero.
The coaches did a great job keeping us focused, telling us the game wasn’t over. The fumble happened but we knew we had to stay strong. We had to go out there and prevent them from making big plays — they only need a couple of points. We just stayed focused.
That touchdown before the half was big. It was a real relief, we could all breathe and get some good momentum going.
You never like going into the half down on the scoreboard or even just upset. So for us to go up by one, we were able to come out in the second half a lot more relaxed.
Games like this show you what kind of a team you have. Considering we didn’t have all our guys, it gives us a lot of confidence knowing we can go out and play all four quarters and not miss a beat with the second group of guys in there.
For it to be so early in the season, coming off a tight game last week, for us to come away with it does a lot of us. This gives us a lot of confidence going into next week and we needed it.
Road wins are so hard to come by which makes this a major win. It doesn’t matter what kind of team you are, whether you are good or bad, road wins are hard to come by.
Their fans were into it, it was an electric environment, so for us to pull it out is awesome. BC really did a heck of a job and it was nice to come out of here with the win.
