I think the biggest difference as it pertains to the remainder of the season is that this game fully displayed this team's weakness. This game put a lot on film that other teams will be able to use.
Going into the season, my expectations was a 2 to 3 loss regular season with us in contention for the CCG, and that expectation is still in play for us.
My current hope for this season is to win out the remainder of the season, beat OUsux or whoever in the CCG, then play in a new years 6 game and come out with a win there.
I think everyone would agree that an 12-2 to a 10-4 record would be an accomplishment for this roster.
We know going into this season that this was a roster that just didn't know how to win close games.
This season's primary goal is to generate excitement and an identity that the staff can recruit with, so that in 2 or 3 years we will have the roster makeup that allows to contend for the playoffs.
Also, OU sucks!
