I watched the entire game attentively (along with K-State losing a heart breaker). Cornell got denied on 4th and goal, missed a short FG, failed to take advantage of short fields/turnovers etc. I did not see them as clearly better at all. Problem was, Lehigh sleep walked through the first 20 minutes of the game. By the time they woke up it was 17-7 and half.
While Lehigh does not have an abundance of talent, they do have some truly valuable pieces sprinkled about. It's up to the staff to squeeze every bit of goodness out of the roster! They lost by 3 points! That difference was there to be made up with being ready from the start/executing on offense/not getting beat on 3-4 big plays in the first quarter.
Like you, I am lukewarm with Hunt as OC. My hope was his head coach experience COMBINED with Cahill's OC experience would join forces and get the unit out of the depths of awful. They might not be awful but they're definitely a long ways away from being good....
