0:00.0	Jesse, are you ready for rapid fire.
0:15.1	I've been honestly waiting for rapid fire all week.
0:19.1	I bet you have because this is your first rapid fire of the week, I guess, isn't it?
0:23.0	It is.
0:23.8	And my only.
0:24.9	Yeah, that's true.
0:26.5	So Mike Denbrock, of course, coached at Texas A&M's Kyle Field when he was an assistant

1:30.6	And, you know, and I think some of that, too, is, you know, the confidence and calmness that we can walk into that stadium with as a program.
