Grounds Crew Garners Recognition

“First shout out to the grounds crew for being able to - you know man it poured and to be able to get that field and playing condition and unbelievable condition. They put in a lot of work for it. So I just want to make sure that people understand that. You know, they were a big reason why it was a clean game today."

On Another Dramatic Finish to Game

"The guys find ways. I mean, it's amazing. I don't know. Never seen a strip, strip sack fumble and a two minute drill on our own three and then a quarterback sneak that works, that doesn't work because it's a false start, and then there should be 30 seconds on the clock at the end of the game, because they throw a hold of there's a holding flag, it gives them a free time out again, like Mississippi State. So now there's a minute and 10 left instead of 30 seconds on their final possession. It's like, holy cow."

"He just has, I mean, he goes to work every day. He's Barrett honors. He's a smart person. He's mature. We talked about it, you know, we're watching the Cardinals game last night, and me him and Keyshawn. And we were like, hey, you know, tell next year you're the dude. He's like, man, we're gonna be young. Where are you? And Keyshawn was like, you're gonna be a junior. It's not young. You're not the classmate. That's how fast this goes. So I mean, even though he's young, I mean, he's growing up in front of our eyes. And that's what is awesome about college football."

"No doubts. What stood out the most, just our fight, man. I mean, down 17 zero. Things just weren't going our way. You know, we still play terrible in the red zone. A lot of that's on me. Got to play my guys in the back line. You know, we're just a really tough team, and we just compete, make adjustments and execute. We always play better in the second half, because we do a great job just communicating and trusting each other so working on some early jitters early in the game, and then we just do a great job
finishing."

’"Yeah, I mean, just, you know, slightly, watching the tape on the sidelines, but haven't really broken it down too much. We just got a lot of red zone trips. We got to come up with some, with some better points. Like I said, I got to play backline more. Understand window throws more in the red zone, you know, but once it pops, it's going to be pretty fun, because we should, we should have probably put up over 45 points."
