I just watched the game on tape, and it was clear — from a divot — that Orlando caught the ball out of bounds in OT. Regardless, Lehigh’s offense was shaky during its OT possession — out of character from the rest of the game.
Mistakes were bad and the kicking game needs to improve — I could not tell if it was snaps, holds or a case of the yips — but this was a game for the ages. I’m incredibly proud of a group of young men who can rally from two devastating mistakes to go down 18 and have the patience to come back.
This group of young men is special and, if you watched Lum and Drwal on the postgame press conference on the LU website, so are they.
I can’t wait to watch them play the rest of the year. It should be fun.
I’m not worried about the D — the UNH offense had a pretty decent game against Toledo last week. I thought today’s coverage was pretty good compared to recent years in many ways.
If this team can get a little more mentally tough and not make as many dangerous mistakes, they could easily win two games in the playoffs … This is shaping up to be the best LU team in quite some time.
