"We are going in the right direction," said Bulldog second-year head coach Toby Smith. "The issue is we have to stop stubbing our toes on things we can control.

"But we scored 20 points against a good team who is going to win seven games," he offered.

"We had moments where we found our way. Yet until we recognize we are beating our selves, we will not beat anyone," he added.
