Dale Steele's Quote

"The positive was that I thought the offense executed efficiently but just not consistently. The two things that upset me more than anything today were the turnovers and the penalties. We talked about three things all week long: We talked about giving an effort and I believe we did give effort. We talked about execution, which we executed in spots, but we didn't execute enough. And we talked about belief, and we've got to overcome that feeling; we've got to start believing when the game's in the balance that we can win."
