defensive depend eight guys judge looking recruiting speed work
We've got a lot of guys that have size, speed and quickness. I always judge our recruiting by linemen and this has been an exceptional year. We're always looking for guys at defensive line. We feel like all eight of these guys will have a chance. It will depend on them... and their work ethic.
excellent few good guys job last lose selling success today win won worked
We always win some, we always lose some. This year, we probably won more than we have the last few years. We probably had more success today than we thought we were going to, and that always makes you feel good. Our guys worked hard, they did an excellent job in selling the program. It's been a good month.
blocking blocks building opening staying teams tough
We're blocking better, staying on longer, and staying on blocks down the field. It's all about confidence. It was hard, opening up with two tough teams like that, but we've been building it back.
ball drives execute finish line man men nine playing strengths
We were not able to finish off drives and execute and put the ball in the end zone. When they have nine men on the line of scrimmage and are playing man coverage, you have to take to strengths and use them.
tried
We tried everything that we could. There are no excuses.
few game good plan plays special
We got the game plan in. All we are doing is polishing it and working on special teams. We had a little scrimmage with the underclassmen and it was a good day. We'll give them a few more plays tomorrow. It was a good day, a good practice, but it was a little wet.
good next playing start talking
We're not going to start talking about anything but playing the next game. It's a good start. It's a good start.
appreciate continue david defensive efforts excellent football gave hard job last past program successful work
We appreciate the hard work and efforts that David gave to the Auburn football program over the last year. He did an excellent job as our defensive coordinator this past season, and I know he'll continue to be successful in the future.
bit blake finding
We started finding out a little bit about Blake Field's nerves.
advantage against almost full game guys healthy last week
We used last week to our advantage of getting guys healthy. We've got almost everything in that we want to do against Arkansas. We're going into this game healthy and full of speed, a lot of energy.
brought forward glad guys interest miss playing
We're glad to have him back. I was one of the guys that said we were going to miss him because he brought a lot to our conference. He brought a lot of interest back. We look forward to playing him.
few game guys healed next
We did keep a few guys out of the game to get them healed for next week. They should be back next week.
balls couple dropped emotion high last mixture threw wrong
We threw high passes, we dropped balls, I called the wrong plays. It's just a mixture of things. You can say we weren't ready. We didn't have the emotion that we had the last couple of games. That's pretty obvious.
