Wow, what a game. I thought an illegal block at the end of the first half really set us back. Good showing in the second half with several solid stands by the D. And Cruz put his cajones on the table with that kick. Ecstatic to see Kiffin eat some crow and see Lambert go out with a Win

Kiffin shook Bradā€™s hand and I donā€™t think said a word to him.

Words donā€™t do justice for what this @CharlotteFTBL team just did. Incredible fight shown by our players and coaches. We owe @coach_lambert49 a debt of gratitude for the class and professionalism he has exhibited his entire career here. And thank you, seniors!! #GoldStandard

Happy for our coaches and players. They deserved this win. Felt great to keep Lane out of a bowl. He is scum.

We were real close this year. Hate we couldnā€™t get to 6, but they played well.

That was in essence our bowl game since we missed out on a real one (and fwiw, FAU played their bowl game in Boca last season too). So Iā€™m happy it ended on that note.

Very classy final interview by Lambert. Gotta tip my hat to him. Iā€™m glad he and the team had that moment together. It was fun to watch.

With few exceptions we were competitive and worth watching all year for the most part. And this game was very similar to the season in a lot of ways.

I was furious with how we managed the clock and the game at the end of regulation. I know weā€™ve got a good kicker but our last few plays were like we were within the 20 and just trying to set up the last second FGā€¦but from 50+??? Wellā€¦it worked out. And Iā€™m happy it did. For Coachā€¦and the kids. They really and truly deserved to win this game and to walk off the field as winners. Winning the last game of the seasonā€¦Not many teams get to do that.

Congrats to the team and thank you Seniorsā€¦and good luck at your next stop Coach Lambert!!
