I thought we were sloppy. Johnnie Thiel still has some work to do with this offense, but he makes defenses play honest with the spread option.

We'll piece together seven games this season and hopefully get enough power points to qualify for the playoffs. This area is in a tizzy, but we're trying to salvage the season, especially for the seniors.

I polled members of this council separately and it's generally thought we have to work together. But it was a lack of careful consideration that got us into the situation we're in today.

I thought we played well. We started out well and played with a sense of urgency. We played like we are supposed to play and we looked like we were having fun. It was nice to get a win and play well.

We had about a three-week stretch where we weren't playing very well at all. We thought we played well enough to beat Crook County, and it didn't work out, but we're playing better. We just need to bottle the passion we play with against Pendleton and use it in the rest of our games.

They probably thought that that was the (astronauts') headquarters, ... I don't think it would have made any difference if it was in Calcutta.
