I still don't think I've recovered from Saturday. Just in a foul mood today.

Why are you in such a foul mood?

Because we were 1st and goal from the 4 yard line with 40 seconds to go in the game only down by 3. Frankly, a situation where I generally expect us to score a touchdown and our opponent be down 4 points and have to go the length of the field to score a touchdown in less than 30 seconds. But we gained -2 yards on 3 plays and kicked a FG to go to over time and then missed an extra point to lose by one.
Other than that, no particular reason.

Fair enough, I too would be salty after that.

I cant for the life of me figure out how we were even in that place to begin with. SMH. That's disappointing on our side. We have a great opportunity to put the game away and fumble a pitch on our own unforced....those are the types of TO's that can get you beat and almost did to us. Hate those types of turnovers.

I know it is a lot easier to second guess at this point. If 3 power plays had scored, we would be talking about how great a win it was. Having said that, I would have "liked" to see us spread it across the field and make Wofford defend 5 receivers. The passing game was working really well at that point. Perhaps a run on the first play in the series, but after seeing Wofford stacking the box and selling out against the run, a passing play would have been in order. Just my (receiver biased) two cents.

I think both sides have things in the game that they can look at and say 'if only". Mercer's defense stopped Wofford on the first 3 series and got great field position each time, but only came away with 3 points. Definitely missed opportunities. Then in late 2nd quarter Mercer got inside Wofford 10 and came away with no points.

Definitely agree on that. Plenty of what if scenarios to go around.
