Comments from a head football coach who wishes desperately he could find something different to say at his weekly press conference:
“Looking back at the Northern Illinois game, it was another disappointing loss,” Miami’s Shane Montgomery said Tuesday, Oct. 14. “It was the sixth game in a row we fell behind early.
“It was a valiant effort to get it back to a 10-10 tie at halftime.
“We did everything but score a touchdown (on the final 14-play, 54-yard drive).
“I’m very proud of the way the kids played.
“It was a tough loss because it would have been a big win on the road.
“Offensively we’ve got to score more points. We have to do a better job there.
“We gave ourselves a chance to win. A win would do so much for our confidence right now.
“It’s tough as a coach, tough as a player, but you’ve got to remain positive.
“If we keep working, something good is going to come out of this.
“Right now our coaches believe in what we’re doing, our players believe in what we’re doing. We’re going to try to get a big win Saturday.”
