Welcome to another episode of Y11 Audio! This is Ypsilanti’s college football show and the official podcast of Ypsi11.com.
Game 2 final: Eastern Michigan fell to Louisiana 49-21 on the road Saturday night.
It wasn’t an ideal showing, even if EMU made improvements on how it started the ball game. The Eagles led the Cajuns 14-0 at the half, but the home squad gained some well-needed confidence and scored seven-straight touchdowns to gas EMU.
My 5 big takeaways from the loss:
* Confidence really, really matters in this sport.
* Teams gain confidence by scoring touchdowns.
* Teams lose confidence when opponents take advantage of certain situations.
* Hopefully, this was Taylor Powell’s worst game of the year.
* The defense still didn’t have the kind of day, pressure-wise, as it would’ve liked to have had.
Y11 Audio is available via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and basically wherever else podcasts are found.
