ball decided grinding kept physical run yards
We decided to run that ball and try to live with it. We kept pounding, getting yards after contact, just grinding it out in a real physical way. That's great.
ends florida four ran tight
We ran a lot of four wides at Florida State, but we didn't have the tight ends we have at Georgia.
andy confidence happening head hold snap
We need Brandon and Andy to have confidence in that snap and hold right now. It's not happening right now and it's getting in their head a little bit.
bad future maybe
We've never done that. It's not a bad idea. I've never thought to do that but maybe in the future we will.
bolster care nation sure voters
We want to make sure that we play someone that everyone in the nation would care about and can bolster how people, how voters feel about you if you win.
dominant force given league team year
It's not very often in our league that one team will become a dominant force in any given year for more than a year.
fred tried
He's a lot like Fred Gibson, ... Fred had a lot of (missed assignments) as a freshman, but he also had a lot of production. So we tried to get him on the field.
finesse flat looked loosen next passing ran run time
(One game) we have looked like a finesse team, a passing team, run it here and there. And the next time we just flat out ran it and didn't even do anything to try and loosen the perimeter.
eerie looked shot
I thought he looked a lot like Shane Matthews. It was kind of eerie how much he looked like him. He looked like Shane Matthews as a second- or third-year player, not the first shot out of the cannon.
finally handle hard point roll season sure
It may even roll into a little of the season before you can really be sure because when you get to the point of who you think it is, and he's the man, how will he handle being that guy? It's just hard to say when it will finally settle.
armor carolina certainly conference found game typical
We certainly found some kinks in our armor tonight. It was a typical Southeastern Conference game and a typical Georgia-South Carolina game.
amount basics calling competition count far four full guys learn short speed talented three trying
The only competition that (Stafford) is doing right now is just trying to learn what to do. The other three guys, even four guys when you count (walk-on Nick) Dalton, have a lot better idea of what to do, even on the basics of calling the cadence. He's a talented passer. I think we all know that, and you can tell he's going full speed as far as trying to learn, but there's so much to learn in such a short amount of time.
handle jam mostly played press soft state today worry
We feel better about it today than we did going into the game. We still have to see how they do with tighter coverage. Boise State played mostly soft coverage, not much press at all so no one had to worry about getting off a jam or redirecting or that kind of thing. We'll see how they handle a little more pressure.
fall guy hoping learning roll struggling time variable
We're hoping by the time we roll around in the fall we could take that variable of 'How much does a guy really know?' out of it. If he is struggling with the learning of it, he is probably not going to play. If he understands it, now it is more of a competition.
