Considering the state of UND football at this time I think its better to focus on how the team played. Not the fact that they lost but HOW they lost. Did they play sound fundemental football? Did the have disipline? Penalties--were they major or small stuff. Were they focused for 60 minutes? How was their conditioning? Effort? when the game was lost did they still give 100% and play to the whistle. How did they react to the loss? Everyone loses a game. How well do they rebound? The last question will be answered in how well they practice this week. The coaches and captains have to get a handle on it and keep the players attitude on learning, getting better and effort.
