10 points, but you know, they fumbled, they threw an interception and you got a lucky break and you're ahead, but you really haven't been able to move the ball.

You really haven't been able to stop them.

They've just fumbled it away a couple of times and you'd kind of maybe got a lucky play to, you know, get your points.

And so you feel like you don't have control of the game, but you're ahead on the scoreboard.

And what you really want, of course, is to have control of the game and control the score.

Um, but in that game, we had a real confidence at halftime when it was 21 to three that, um, you know, we given up a touchdown on a third and goal from the 12.

We gave up a pick six.

We fumbled going in, um, uh,

You know, we missed some opportunities to, you know, maybe be tie or could even been ahead in the game at halftime, 10-7 or maybe 10-10, something like that.

And so, yeah, the score was bad, but we felt like we had control of the game.

Well, then they go out and score, make it 28-3, and now I'm thinking, you know, we might have control of the game, but 25 points is a lot to make up, and there's a lot of things that have to go right.

So two two-point conversions and a strip sack and two kickoffs where we tackled them inside the 15-yard line so they couldn't get in the field goal range.

um and another sack and another holding penalty and literally everything went right for us in the last you know 20 minutes of the game there was no lack of confidence because we actually felt like we had control of the game we were moving the ball we were playing good defense but we just had a couple of bad plays in there that that skewed us and skewed the score

Um, but once that kind of settled down, you know, we, we were okay.

And, um, and then once we kind of got rolling again, we had some plays that we needed to make and, and we made them, you know, um, on both sides of the ball, hanging the kicking game on those kickoffs.

So, um, everything had to go right.

And it did.

And we were very fortunate in that one.

Thanks, Shane.

I appreciate it.
