I think teams with a little more depth start wearing Mayfield down late in games, more so than them losing focus. After the game, Coach Morris said he didn't feel like his kids were playing bad or unfocused, but, just couldn't get that rhythm back that they showed in the 1st half and he credited Corbin for making adjustments and said we just beat a really good football team. He also credited his kids for coming up big late with the interception and then being able to pick up a couple of 1st downs and being able to run out the clock, despite being pretty gassed late.

I'll tell you, a fresh Mayfield team is a scary site for opponents, both offensively and defensively, but, larger class teams with superior depth and less 2 way players will be an issue late in games sometimes, especially really good teams and especially when temps are in the high 80s and 90s.. Once the weather cools down, that becomes less and less a factor, which is a big reason it always seems like Mayfield gets stronger as the season wears on. To me, it's more the weather cools down and they start playing teams their own size and class and just appear to be improved.
