Last Saturday wasn't a good day. Georgia Southern was dominated in every facet of the game against James Madison to fall to 4-2 on the season and 1-1 in the Sun Belt. In this episode, we don't relive the loss as much as analyze what we saw and how we can move forward. Do we put this loss behind us with still all of our preseason goals in tact or do we crumble under pressure with another mediocre finish in the final six games of the regular season?
