A lot of "what-if's" being thrown around here. What it boils down to is playing better when it counts. We simply didn't do that. Our pitching had the ability. Our offense had the ability. Our fielding defense had the ability. We can try and pinpoint the issue all day, but in the end, it's all just speculation. Maybe we went cold at the wrong time? Maybe the opponents got hot at the right time?

My point is, I don't believe the end of the season was attributed to lack of ability. We didn't get beaten by any unbeatable teams (whether that be Rice, UTSA, or MooU). We just didn't play to our true potential during the postseason. Flashes of our ability were shown, but never fulfilled.
