We have worked on it a lot. (Quarterback D.J.) Shockley just has great voice inflection. He's doing a great job of mixing up the cadence. I bet we're averaging three a game and maybe even more. We've gotten a bunch of people to jump offside just because of our cadence.

West Virginia did a heck of a job jumping on us. The only consolation is we didn't lay down and die.
He's a big-league talent. I wish he wasn't a freshman. Hopefully, we won't have to play him for a while.
Today was kind of a dress rehearsal for a dress rehearsal. We're a little ahead of schedule, as you always are this time of year.
If a quarterback places the ball properly, I don't think there's anybody who can cover him. He's just such a big guy. You can't slow him up. You better get to him if you want to cover him.
If a guy thinks every time he drops a ball you're going to drop him out of the lineup, it's very hard for him to gain confidence,
I don't think we've seen him as good as he can play, and he played really good the last five or six games last year. I don't want to put any pressure on him, but he's a special guy.
I don't think it's unrealistic for us to have a shot at it in any given year. I don't think we're too far away, really.
I don't know why we don't execute in that area. It's there to be had. We just for whatever reason can't stand prosperity, I guess. Plus, I think we like our kickers to be tops in America in scoring points.

I am very excited about what's going to happen with D.J. Shockley, ... He is a great football player. I'm just happy for him. You know, guys can mope about the situation, or guys can decide, 'I just don't want to be here,' and take off. He didn't do that. Not only did he stay, but he thrived at Georgia. He is in great shape academically, and he has won community service awards for us. He's just a fantastic guy, a great man. He's probably the most respected player we have on the team.
People were saying we were going to hang 50 on them. We're not that good.
On offense, we're pretty good. We could be a lot more than good.
