I am happy for the win, but any decent MVFC team will score 20+ points on us if we play that sluggish at the beginning. The Dukes had the ball almost 12-minutes more than we did. The only reason we scored in the first quarter was the roughing call that took us into FG range, which ended up being a field goal.
We had no real answer for Buechel ...most of his misses were misfires on his behalf.
I still have not seen anything that will give me any confidence going forward. Then again this is not the first time we have had this type of light early schedule, so I guess we wait. SIU is one of the two schools that worry me in the MVFC. Adams interview was spot on. We can take no one lightly and each week is a new season.
