ball hope nine plays positive realize turn type worst yards
It's got to be an NFL-type mentality. This is probably not a nine yards to the right, touchdown to the left, type game. I hope it is from our standpoint, but we've got to have positive plays and don't turn the ball over and realize sometimes a punt is not the worst thing that can happen.
