What people are saying
The kicking game, with our PAT, field goal [unit] - not even close to good enough. It cost us the game tonight. I'm going to evaluate everything.
That's the beautiful thing about football: You get another drive. You get another game. All you can do is keep moving forward. You're hoping someone on defense or special teams can make a play, and that's what happened. Greg Rousseau made a play.
The confidence I had in T-Bass was, 'Hey, 45 yards, he's going to make this kick,'
