In this new series from Spectrum sports, we delve into the inside of the mind of one of Columbia's own football players to get a first-hand take on what happened on the field. For the first installment, Lions defensive back Ross Morand, CC '12, shares his perspective on last week's game and what the team needs to do to be successful in its next few games.
3:30 PM kicked off our much anticipated homecoming game against Penn, where the Columbia defense knew they had a challenge in front of them. We came out firing on all cylinders and got out to an early lead. Unfortunately Penn’s offense managed to have two key drives, one at the end of the half and one at the end of the game. Those were moments when our D needed to make a huge play, but didn’t do so.
