Maybe we were just beaten by a better team in the bowl game? Veteran coach had extra time to prepare and exposed our weaknesses. I saw Ohio's players having fun with our guys. Clark was doing it with smoke and mirrors and Ohio frosted our mirrors.

The better match ups would have been FAU and UAB swap opponents. The location didn't beat us. Ohio did.

Spot-on! Ohio was a much better team. I guarantee you the coaches were worried about that game before it happened too. UAB vs Akron, and FAU vs Ohio would have been much better match-ups.

I thank we would have beaten Akron or had a shot to beat them and Ohio would have hung with FAU but lost.

We would have gotten waxed by Ohio even had we been fully focused.
