Tough game for us. I thought we hung in there extremely well despite our lack of a running game and our defense bent and broke which was unfortunate. We also struggled to stop the run and that will hurt. We definitely made a bowl bid tougher on us by falling at home within the conference. We hope to have Goodrum available next week, as he was questionable and did not play.
