My heart definitely skipped a beat. The defense held on and really came up big.
It feels great. Anytime you can pick up a win (it's great), especially a win on the road coming back. I'm very proud of the guys.
The good thing is the monkey is off our back. This is our fourth road game of the season. Playing two tough opponents the last two weeks helped us tonight. Our guys were disciplined and played throughout.
He kept his composure tonight. He's our quarterback without a doubt. His consistency tonight, and how he was able to stay in the pocket and make plays and stay unfazed was great for the team, and the team got behind him tonight.
This was the second game of the season where we took the opening kickoff and marched it down the field. We became productive on the opening drive.
There are a lot of positives. We can't get bent out of shape and hold our heads down just because it didn't go our way. We're going to be characterized by how we stick together.
Hillside was playing for a playoff spot. What do you guys want to play for? Right now, they're playing to win. We haven't come out to play yet. We were just walking around on the field.
I thought we played well -- well enough to win in the second half. We made the adjustments that we talked about at halftime, and they worked. We just fell a little short tonight.
We got more consistent play from our quarterback position. I think that was the big key.
We're just focusing on Northern Durham, one game at a time. The guys have a poster of a ladder in the locker room, and we're not jumping ahead.
