I generally don't harp on the officiating. But it was pretty bad in this game, and for the entire first half, we sure seemed to catch more than our fair share of bad calls.
Anyway, the players and coach did what they were supposed to do, put officiating out of their minds, and focused on the next play. And eventually it paid off. I think GS might've been emotional in large part out of pride in his players who never gave up and found a way to battle back and win it when they had to be reeling after the first three quarters.
The team struggled for much of the game, but they did really came on at the end.
