Message: [QUOTE="OrangeTarheel, post: 3077336, member: 887"] I don’t think any game is a single play, we stayed in that game enough to be in a place where we could win when the opportunity presented itself. That’s a team effort. There were a few grind em out wins last year but in watching 2017 games we made a big leap in 2018 and a huge leap from 2016. Areas of improvement include running the ball, long plays from scrimmage, reduced number of penalties and better takeaway/turnover ratio. Our players look the part of D1 athletes - faster and bigger. Injuries were significantly reduced. It has been a long time since consistent winning with this program. That sort of mentality pays dividends, you think anything is possible and stop a self-fulfilling idea of failure. Underdog mentality means you are sometimes competitive against great talent, Dino has these guys on track to be competitive every time against great talent. [/QUOTE]
