COACH BARRY NORTON’S
COMMENTS: “The first half was a really good ballgame for us, but the second half was ugly. I thought the kids done a great job, but we have things to clean up and we have some work to do.
“We made some great plays passing the ball, we ran the ball really well and we done overall good things, including our special teams coverage. I’m proud of these kids, but we have to keep working if we want to get better.
“Our goal right now is try to get better everyday and every week, and that starts in practice. We want to condition ourselves to when we hit the playoffs, we would like to be in full stride.”
