Coach Talk

DeKaylin Zecharius
Narrow victories like this are incredibly important for team chemistry. Persevering through the toughest of times and triumphing in the face of adversity... we expect the DeKaylin Zecharius locker room to really gel riding into Week 15.
Layne Ducks
Normally, a single missed field goal isn't any reason to worry, but talk about impeccable timing: Jason Sanders went 2-for-3 on FGs instead of 3-for-3, and Layne Ducks lost the matchup by 0.02 points. We'll let you do the math on that one.
