Everybody ready?

Okay, all right. Obviously a tough one. The other night, you know, offensively, we faced really adversity for the first time, you know, getting off that tough start.

I think we had two penalties. We had a fumble, a lot of uncharacteristic things. I was proud the way that our guys fought back, you know, at the end, you know, it's a

player to one way or another. But we're still growing as an offense. I've said that. You know,

I think we'll continue to get better. We've got to correct the self-inflicted things. But our guys,

you know, I thought they responded, you know, for the most part, like champs, and we're

growing as a offense.

And so that was an experience that we need to learn from and be better moving forward.

Questions?

All right.

When you say responded like champs, are you talking about during the game, or are you talking

about since the body language, their demeanor, and, you know, responding like we'd want

them to respond, you know, and fight and, you know, and play hard and all that.

On a couple of the fourth and shorts late in the game, you guys after play action,

what was it, I guess, that you were seeing for what Virginia was doing to do that instead of running? Yeah. You know, you, you know, obviously when some doesn't work, it's not a very good call. And obviously that was a big moment. But, you know, as a coach, you strategically spend a lot of time and, you know, I felt really good about it. And it didn't work. Their corner plate did a really good job and didn't work. And obviously when it doesn't work, it's a bad play call. In that moment, you know, you've got to, we've got to do a better job and obviously it didn't work. What did you see from Tommy, especially bouncing back after the interception? Yeah, I mean, he's playing his guts out. I think everybody can see that. I mean, you know, he's still learning his teammates too.

But, you know, he's really fighting hard and playing hard. And, you know, I was proud of his effort.

Edlin.

Coach, I think Tommy said that he thought maybe some of the guys might have been riding a little bit high after the hot start.

What is the key to flush of this and kind of build it?

Yeah, I mean, you know, it's been happiness camp for three weeks. You know, we play really good. We didn't face the adversity. And, you know, you go on the road, you're going to face adversity. And you've got to keep in mind, you know, I keep, you know, we've got 11 new starters. We got new coaches where I'm like everything is we're growing.

We faced adversity.

And I think the biggest thing that positive I took. keep, you know, we got 11 new starters. We got new coaches where I'm like, everything is we're
