After losing to Louisiana at home last Saturday, 44-34, in a game that saw a combined seven turnovers by both sides, Texas State head coach Jake Spavital’s message to the team has been to eliminate mistakes.
The Bobcats actually won the turnover battle, forcing four and committing three, but the maroon and gold’s mistakes proved the most costly as all three led to Ragin’ Cajuns touchdowns.
“We’ve kind of been our own worst enemy this entire year,” Spavital said. “Everything that we’ve done is really self-inflicted. You talk about all these moral victories, we’re just frustrated with moral victories. Like, I tell you guys every week they play hard, and they do and you guys see that. It’s kind of common sense that they’re just playing extremely hard and competitive. But we’ve got to be more consistent and clean up the football part of it.”
