We appear to be the smallest team on the field each week. They're big. They're a very big, physical team.

They have what appears to be a great group of skill players who are very quick.
defensive game limit speed
We're going to try to speed the game up, limit their defensive substitutions.
amongst awareness bolts creating hard nuts work
We're going to try to get down to the nuts and bolts of what we know we can do. And then we just have to really work hard at creating that awareness amongst the players.
both defense defensive effort football gave good great kids oddly played shut win year
We really wanted to come out and give a defensive effort, and those kids gave an effort that was good enough to win a football game. Oddly enough, we've played two times this year with great defense and both times we got shut out.
absolutely execute fairly instead line minimize moving red successful
We've got to minimize mistakes. We absolutely have to execute in the red zone. In two games, we've been fairly successful moving from our 20-, 30-yard line to other teams' 20 or 30 -- and then we bog down. Instead of really concentrating, we've been sloppy.
behind build early kids last living reminding reverse season trying
I don't think you come and if you lose, you're behind the 8-ball. We're not approaching it that dramatically. But with the season we had last year, we're trying to get it off on the right foot. We're trying to build up. We're not living in last year, but we're reminding these kids how important it is to get something early to reverse those fortunes.

If we can't learn to execute and tackle better, we're going to get into a vicious cycle.
found weapons
Now we found out we have two more weapons in the backfield.

We just felt that we were way too up and down. We spread the blame equally. Everybody did something bad.
feeling hate third urgency week
You hate to be feeling a sense of urgency in the third week of the season, but it's there.
start
We kind of feel like we can still right this ship, but we have to start on Friday.
attention game obviously pay plays running west
We obviously have to pay more attention to the big plays on the outside. West Ashley's running game is more off tackle, outside, off the flanks.
kindness lots repeating total yards
It's kind of a repeating story: Lots of total yards but no points.
