Early on it was looking like a struggle game with us giving up a field goal and then Josh fumbled the ball twice in a row but the 1st one got overturned. But after holding them to another field to goal to make it 6-0 with 5 mins left in the 1st we went on a 45-13 run to end the game. And overall things felt easy on offense and the defense was containing well.
