To our kids' credit, I liked how our defense competed in the second half. We'll build on that. I think our kids will bounce back (next week against rival Normal West). I don't think they are going to think about this game too long.
We knew our defense early in the year would have to support the offense a little bit because we had so many new faces on offense and they've done that. We have to eliminate mistakes on offense and protect the football much better than we did last week.
