We will review the game film and continue to find ways to improve. There is a lot of football still left to play and we can't afford to get ahead of ourselves. Hard work now will pay off down the stretch. We have a talented team and have the potential to do some good things this season. We just can't get all caught up in the attention. We need to focus on our upcoming opponent, the Memphis Express, who we host next week. We need to set the tone early on defense, get our ground game going, and play mistake free if we want to have a shot at winning this game!"
