I know ultimately its a L for us, but that game could potentially turn out to be very beneficial for our program. I think that loss was the turning point for our guys, as Doh clearly stated that they were ticked in the locker room afterwards. I think that being up most of the game and squandering the lead taught our guys how to handle adversity, especially on the road. I think you will see that the UTEP game will help us in our final 5 (all winnable), primarily at Marshall and UCF.

I hope you're right, but it is way too premature to judge; however, I guess that's the point of a message board.

I know this, the players facebooks were littered with 'we gave that game away tonight, no more losing,' type updates.
