Please change the title to WSJ arcticle about our loss. I was thinking maybe it was FBS news or school news. I can't read anymore arcticles about the loss.

Done.

Many points made in the article, this one stood out a lot for me:

"A missed blocking assignment led to an opening for defensive tackle Shelby Harris of Illinois State, who blocked the fourth kick of his career and no doubt the biggest. He slapped Sam Martin’s point-after attempt to the ground and the Redbirds celebrated their first playoff victory in six years.

“Obviously, somebody didn’t perform and do what they were supposed to,” Moore said."

Once again, as previously stated this was a problem the entire game, to include prior to halftime. :roll:

While what Jamal said is probably true that not getting into a rhythm offensively was a contributor defense has been a problem for us going on 3 years now.

37 points is enough to win a game.

I know the D was young and we lost some guys early, but I'm not sold on our coordinator and haven't been since Wiley left.
