1 – Veterinarians have always
They are perhaps the two oldest players in the lineup, but Lorenzo Alexander and Kyle Williams played a crucial role in the dominant defensive effort up front.
Lorenzo Alexander had four tackles, one and a half bag, two hits as a quarterback, a loss tackle and a decisive pass for an interception.
Kyle Williams produced three tackles, two sacks, three hits, a tackle for loss and a forced fumble.
Alexander's interception allowed Stephen Hauschka to reduce the score to 10-3 early in the third quarter as the game regained momentum.
As impressive as the two veteran captains had in the defensive effort, they were disappointed that they could not do anything more.
"We have to go and put our team in a position to win games no matter what happens on the other side of the ball," said Alexander. "I said this all year long, we're supposed to be the leaders and show the way. If this only means awarding three points per week and that's what it takes to win, we expect to do so.
"From the outside, it may not seem realistic, but it's the mentality that we have to defend, we have to show the way and give ourselves a chance and that's what we did. We just did not finish the game as planned. "

4 – They said it
"Unfortunately, it was a similar phrase this week (in defeat). It was too early mistakes. We started this game with too many mistakes in attack. Penalties, falls and turnarounds, which led to a slow start. I believe in what we do and in our guys, but we have to play better football. "
