Take away #15 Smith and Boyle is no where close to a championship caliber team. He is the team. Belfry shot them self in the foot all night with unforced turnovers.

I agree. Smith is their team. Belfry was definitely ready early on. The TD that was reversed was a huge play. Would have been 17-0 Belfry .... However.....we said all week....penalties and turnovers would play big factor in the ultimate outcome. I do think Boyle made a couple of adjustments and slowed the run down in the 2nd half. But....additional turnovers and the loss of Dixon really limited the Pirates ....and took the starch out of them emotionally. Boyle was the better second half team. So a tip of the hat. But disappointed for the Pirates. This was a very winnable game that they let get away.
