“We did a lot of things fundamentally wrong today and gave up some very uncharacteristic turnovers. We didn't handle their pressure well at all and were overwhelmed physically as ECU is bigger, stronger, and quicker than us in every position. It's the third game of the season. We played a better opponent and the game got away from us and snowballed, no question about it. We'll get back home now and work on our fundamentals. We have to get better.”
