Halfway though the second quarter yesterday, I thought we were playing the best game of the season. We were playing well on all sides of the ball, and looked pretty damn good. The playbook is finally starting to take shape on these young players and we're seeing improved performance.
Then, we folded like a bad poker hand. Our defense couldn't stop anything, and we had a couple poorly timed turnovers.
So, what happened?
I can't really chalk it up to coaching. Is it conditioning? With as many freshmen and walk-ons seeing the field, that could be an issue right now.
I didn't see any huge changes in either team's performance, other than Houston running the ball well and our defense completely crapping the bed. It blew my mind...
