Dig a little deeper

That’s the philosophy for this week. We are under no illusions as to how big the challenge is in front of us, however this team has a spirit that will never quit. It will take a full team effort for four complete quarters to get the job done. We will need execute on both defense and offense and make some big plays on special teams.

After arriving in Knoxville we went to the stadium for our usual shake out and the team looked sharp and focused. Following that we had our team meal and then meetings to finalize the game plan before returning to our rooms for some relaxation before we head to bed for an earlier than usual wake up due to the early kickoff tomorrow.

Time for Resilience

Obviously the result on Saturday was not what we wanted nor expected. Once again our execution let us down. Collectively we as a team need to get better and more consistent in order to achieve our goals.

The student support was amazing and we hope that the student body and in particular True Blue continues to support us as it does and will definitely make a difference when we get into conference play.

Homecoming

It's great to be back home after last week and get a chance to play in front of our loyal fans.

The team feels as though we let one slip away last week by failing to play 4 quarters of consistent Buffalo Bulls football. That has been the focus this week and there is a different feeling amongst the group.

Tailgating begins at 2pm so come join in the festivities on True Blue avenue and support the team on its “walk to victory” at 3:30pm.

Tough Loss

After a spirited come back the team fell short of winning our first conference game of the season. The lesson we need to take from this game is that we need to play 4 quarters of consistent football. We can’t afford to have lapses at any point of the game.

We arrived back in Buffalo at 3 am and had medical check in on Sunday before getting the afternoon off to relax and rest and get ready for the week.

This week we are back at UB Stadium and will be looking to bounce back from a tough road loss.

Conference Play Ups the Ante

Following our 24-hour rule (which is the time we give ourselves to think about the previous game) it was time to shift our focus to the first conference opponent of the season, the Ball State Cardinals.

Focus Friday began with a flight to Indianapolis followed by a visit to the NCAA Hall of Champions and then a shake out at the Indianapolis Colts NFL training facility.

Following the team dinner and team meetings it is time to relax and get ready for the best day of the week; Successful, Swarming Saturday.
