Only losing to Ironton by 6 is a moral victory, right?

The fact that it was at Tank Memorial makes this even more impressive, if a loss can be viewed that way.

So yes say you?

Absolutely.

Losing by 6 should make for a better mindset for the next week of practice relative to getting drilled.

Oh man. I hate that saying. Not familiar with the game, but i will agree with sports fan. A loss is a loss, but practice usually is a lot harder the week following a spanking.

Agreed. The term "moral victory" is just a polite, politically correct term for a "loss".

But to reiterate, it is easier to lace up the pads on Monday after a one possession loss to a good team relative to to having a running clock hung on you.

From all reports, they were knocking on the door and just came up short on 4th and 2 with the clock running out.

Crossing the river and losing at the Tank by less than a TD with a chance to win is a moral victory.
