The players had a few thoughts about the game. Tarrance Taylor, who had two touchdowns, said, "We came out to a great start. When we were nursing the lead, we started to make more mistakes. We let it get to us and they took advantage. Normally we play like a second half team and this week we played the first half. We just have to play hard all four quarters."
Ahmad Ahmed, who had a sack, said, "It was a tough loss and we played terrible. Our defense was good, but if our offense doesn't support our defense we don't have anything. So our offense really needs to step it up cause it's just unacceptable."
Denzel McLarty said, "It was a disappointing loss. We have to move on. It's in the past. We have to learn how to finish the game. This week is a really important game so we have to work hard."
Be sure to be at Tech's next game against Saturday at 12 against Canarsie. It is a home game so come out and support the team!
