bit extremely game good last looked middle night played prepared road saturday struggled team tennessee tough year
I thought last year they played us pretty well. They have looked pretty good this year. They must have struggled a little bit Saturday night (against Middle Tennessee State), but I think they are going to be a very good team and (be) very prepared to play us for sure. It's a game that we are going to have to be extremely focused. It's going to be another tough road game.

It was during Auburn preparation. It was a Tuesday. We were getting ready for practice. Around lunch time, people started watching it and freaking out. We had a big team meeting about it. It was definitely something traumatic. It was really tough to put football aside.

capable character guys higher returning team time
I think that any time that you have this many returning starters, you have higher expectations. I think as individuals we have high expectations for our team just because we know the character of guys we have here and what we're capable of.

He's a fleet-footed guy, a really smart kid who puts himself in the right places. But it will be important for us to make the game easy for him, and that means keeping the pressure off.

Year by year, they've been getting better and better. I think they're a good program. I know they've gotten some flak for not being any good for a long time, but they've been getting better that last two years.
