obviously just you know tough loss for our football team and um you know it's uh it kind of gets back to this rivalry it's basically what to advertised you know tough hard flought games and uh you know they're unpredictable and certainly uh over the last x amount of years it's been been really close and uh they played a really good game credit to them you know compliments to them the way they competed did a great job and we came up short so uh you know most important thing you it's going to hurt for a while we have to move for forward and see what we can do to um you know build off of this and I'll get to that in a second but um you know just a couple takeaways uh you know in the first half our defense played really well came up with two field goals uh one was off really good field position the other was after a really nice drive and had an opportunity you know at least on one of those maybe to get a touchdown and to come up with two field goals there it's a couple missed opportunities and you know came back and got us a little bit and then um you know threw a pick in the first half or excuse me the start of the second half um you know which was not a total Calamity we you know gave them the ball in the plus or minus 25 they had 75 to go but uh really what happened there they had a couple possessions where they moved the ball and score touchdowns to their credit uh was happy of the way the offense responded after their first touchdown we came back and drove it and answered with a touchdown so that was certainly encouraging um but you know just came up short here at the end they did a good job moving the ball and credit to their field goal kicker 55 yard field goals you know pretty impressive effort on his part so we played cleaner football U you the one turnover couple penalties but certainly cleaner two penalties I guess I thought our guys played hard thought they prepared hard and um you know so that's that's kind of hitting enough shell right now um You the biggest thing right now for our football team we still got 12 weeks in front of us 10 games and you never want to lose a game certainly but the biggest thing is like Any Time of the Season you know how you're going to respond to it and it's important for our guys to understand I think we have a good football team here we have good leadership good coaching staff and you know win lose draw you got to move forward in respond so this one's going to hurt for a while butth we'll move forward and learn from it tomorrow and go back to work on Monday
