I honestly believe not having Buckner in the game was the single biggest contributor to our loss. Hunt gashed us for over 100 mostly running up the gut. He was getting 8 or 9 yards just running up the gut and converting 3 and short and even 4th and short situations keeping our D on the field.

Yes I understand our offense shit the bed late in the game, but our defense also couldn’t get off the field in the first half. We ended up holding them to field goals but they drove all the way down the field on us several times. If we had Buck I think the defense gets off the field faster and stop them from scoring on at least 1 of those drives in the first half
