bit cost football freedom guys ironic plays power reason special teams
I think the only reason we've been here is because of special teams. So, it's a bit ironic that special teams cost us the game. We give our guys freedom to make plays on the power play. Sometimes, it comes back to bit us.

He was great. He's such a tough competitor and he's in such a tough spot as a freshmen. He hasn't been in this situation before and I thought he handled it great. He made some big stops at key moments and I was very proud of him.
