The Owls were able to control the ball and not turn it over as they had nearly 20 minutes in the time of possession category. Plenty of third down conversations and long drives put the owls in a spot to stay competitive. Playing Coach Ran for years we were well aware that his offense is damn near unstoppable and that we would have to be perfect to have a shot. Our main goal was to keep the ball out of his hands. The Owls missed a long field goal to end the half which could have put some pressure on the Cougars. As it sat the Owls were down 21-14 at half. The Owls had to punt for the first time in the game on the 2nd half opening drive giving the Cougars the ball and a chance to make it a two score game. A interception on the next possession sealed the deal except the Cougars also threw a pick and gave the Owls a shot. The Owls were able to score but took up to much time and left themselves with only 50 seconds on the clock. We decided to kick it off and hope that we could get a three and out since we never get the onside kicks anyways. This backfired as the first play went for 30 yards and sealed the game. Good luck this year Ran and it has been a pleasure getting my rump kicked over the years.
