ball hope nine plays positive realize turn type worst yards
It's got to be an NFL-type mentality. This is probably not a nine yards to the right, touchdown to the left, type game. I hope it is from our standpoint, but we've got to have positive plays and don't turn the ball over and realize sometimes a punt is not the worst thing that can happen.

We're not going to give the game to the Clemson crowd. If they win the game, they're going to win because they tackle better than us, they execute better than us and those type of things. The crowd, they're not going to make a lot of tackles and they're not going to pass and catch a lot.

As a university, as a football program, we don't condone any type of activities such as that. Certainly, I think, that detracts from a great bowl game and what the spirit of college football is all about.

He's going to be as good as advertised. He's still young. He's still learning, but he's really going to be a good player, a difference-maker type player. I'm not concerned about him.
