Honestly didn't have much to do with Wells... he was who he has been at QB throughout the entire postseason. Just average... Not every team can have a future NFL player in the backfield. This is a little more on our OC and special teams. OC is phenomenal when everything goes as planned but not very good when he has to jump off script.. And for the love of all things holy, you can do a speed package out of our offensive set... I've played in one and all you do is take out the second look to the sideline... rely on the QB to make some decisions. Comebacks don't happen when you snap the ball at :03 every play.
Special teams is really on the players not executing. Mental Game in that corp. has been crap since the late season missteps.
JMU dominated and they are a more talented team but to say this game was in the bag before it started is bogus and frankly let's us off the hook for the responsibility we had in losing it. If JMU had 3 turnovers, a missed FG and a blocked punt they would have lost too. Would love to see what the game was like with an even turnover margin. But you can't go play a team with more talent AND shoot yourself in the foot and expect to win.
Overall you have to appreciate that they kept playing. There are no moral victories but 28-14 is about as good as we could have hoped for given how things went down. It really was a great season and the Penguins overachieved... don't lose sight of that in the frustration of the loss. Good year. Congrats JMU
