Post Game
Boll Weevil Head Coach Hud Jackson had this to say after the game: “Not what we wanted. Harding is a great team that you can’t be undisciplined when trying to defend them or trying to move the ball. Our team will correct problems and move on to OBU. We will be better. I will be better! Eat ’em up!”
