3 straight offensive series, 3 straight turnovers around our own 30. We're cruising at 17-0 mid Q2 .... now 17-17 at half.
The last TO was a pick on sideline throw. What made it so maddening was we have the ball with 3 timeouts left, and just under 2 mins having lost momentum from prior 2 turnovers. So we're taking our sweet time making safe runs and one safe pass, while inexplicably letting the clock run out. We get a 1st down on a nice safe shovel pass, then we huddle and call a run play. Then we huddle again (tic toc tic toc), and we throw the f-ing sideline pass to the long side of field .. picked with 45 seconds, again around our 30. They score with under 15 seconds.
One ... why are we letting the clock run out on our last drive
Two ... if were letting the clock run out, why throw that f-ing pass ?
Great quarter and a half, then implode with the 3 turnovers.
Bryce Jefferson looking very good .. got to take care of the ball though. Defense looking very solid, getting more pressure than I expected.
Take care of ball, get the momentum right back.
