That is my biggest takeaway from this game. Neither the coaches nor the players have given up on the season.
One example is how we have changed personnel on the OL and they are playing better. We were against one of the very best DL's in college football and we were respectable.
Statistically the game was pretty close. 260 yards vs 322. 14 first downs vs. 18. We actually won the time of possession. Our inability to finish drives was a killer, as it has been all season.
Also, it wouldn't have changed who won, but we did get screwed by the refs on 2 or 3 plays.
