Yeah djax tied it up but we never should have had to tie it up. We were in a great position to win. We had the ball with 2-1/2 minutes left and should have had decent field position. In a tie game. We should have needed roughly 25-30 yards to kick a fg and could have used up time while they used up timeouts. How is that not being in a great position to win?

The way the defense was playing the whole game, none of this should have happened period. And focusing on the missed Hopkins FG or Jackson's fumble or Special Teams giving the Cowpukes good field position on the last drive, diminishes the fact that the offense had plenty of opportunities to put this game out of reach and even away early on. Hell, a first half TD would have probably done the job.
