Title: One thing I liked (and hadn't seen for a long time)
Post by: PirateVOL on November 22, 2015, 07:19:23 EST
Our last drive we had three (3) first downs and controlled the ball for five (5) minutes when they KNEW we were going to run the ball.  We had not been able to do that for a long time

As a bonus, the punt pinned them inside the 10 AGAIN.

It was very good seeing us make 1st downs and run the clock there close to the end. If we'd done that earlier in the season we'd have 2-3 more wins right now.

The defensive effort on their one TD was great.  When they overturned the call on the field and gave them the ball at the 1, it would've been easy to just let them walk in.  But instead we extended them all the way to 4th down.  And though we couldn't quite keep them out of the endzone, we did force them to burn almost 2 more minutes off the clock, which effectively killed any hopes of a comeback.

moseley should have picked the first down pass
Watching the clock burn down on those four downs was nice
