good last
That was spontaneous. I thought I'd take one last go-round, get a good look at everything. It was my last game.
coming entirely game good guy hungry looked maybe motivating motivation presence quite rookie stepped
Maybe I'm motivating him. My motivation is entirely coming from being a rookie and being hungry to be out there and be the guy and stuff. I think my game and my presence are motivating him quite a bit, and he's stepped his game up a lot because he looked good today.
fun good learned time
It was fun. I had a good time in there and learned a lot about myself and where I'm at.
good realized team teams three top
I don't think this team realized how good we are, ... I think we are one of the top three teams in the country, I really do.
came conclusion felt practice week
We kind of came to the conclusion that we were going to practice this week and see how we felt at the end of this week, on Friday, Saturday, something like that.
ball running thomas
Thomas was running the ball well. I didn't get much of a chance.
help hope matters win
Um, I don't know. I just hope I can help us go get our first win of the season. I don't think it matters who we're playing.
fades
I got it all down, ... I think just being off, it fades away a little bit. But it all comes back.
ability attacking defense helped played seemed
I think Vince helped us out a lot. The defense has to be very leery of his attacking ability. When he was in the game, it seemed like the defense played a little loose.
almost extra players receiver
That would be huge, having two skill-position players out there like that, an extra set of (receiving) hands, almost like having another receiver in the backfield or out wide,
control involved point
I can only control what I do and my preparation for the game. I can't control who they want, so I have really made a point of not getting emotionally involved in the situation.
starting difficult circumstances
It never really was difficult for me not starting because I understood the circumstances.
thinking play cameras
I don’t think I’ve said this on camera, (but Ricky Williams) is the largest part of why I chose to come play for UT
aside baseball closer focus games maybe step won
We haven't won the games we wanted to win. I thought maybe if I put baseball aside and focus on football, I can get us a step closer to where we want to be.
