class contract difference fourth huge next rather year
It'll be more important for next year's class. You're in the first year of an eight-year contract rather than the fourth year of an eight-year contract. There is a huge difference in those two things.
ends florida four ran tight
We ran a lot of four wides at Florida State, but we didn't have the tight ends we have at Georgia.
amount basics calling competition count far four full guys learn short speed talented three trying
The only competition that (Stafford) is doing right now is just trying to learn what to do. The other three guys, even four guys when you count (walk-on Nick) Dalton, have a lot better idea of what to do, even on the basics of calling the cadence. He's a talented passer. I think we all know that, and you can tell he's going full speed as far as trying to learn, but there's so much to learn in such a short amount of time.
beat fight fighting five four full good improve last proven
I think we'll keep our poise. I think we'll fight hard. I think that'll happen. Are we good enough to beat Tennessee? That I don't know. We'll have to improve in all areas, but when it comes to fighting a full 60 minutes, I think we've proven over the last four or five years we'll do that.

behave class covered excited four guys hard mainly major position special three unite work
I'm real excited about this class, mainly because of the numbers. We really covered every major position other than the kickers. If these guys unite as a team, behave like they should and work hard like they should, we should be something special three or four years down the road.
boys credit dear fast fun hang life tried
We just had to hang on for dear life today. It's not fun to see your boys go down. I also have to give a lot of credit to Arkansas. I tried to tell everyone how fast they were.

We might have the only kickoff team in the country that doesn't have any linebackers running down there,
armor carolina certainly conference found game typical
We certainly found some kinks in our armor tonight. It was a typical Southeastern Conference game and a typical Georgia-South Carolina game.

We control our destiny still. That's where you want to be.
ball confident expect gets groove happened hard heck played player simple spray tried until
I've tried to keep it simple for him and just say, 'Protect the ball and relax,' ... I don't expect him not to have pregame jitters or not have a ball spray on him here or there. That's happened to every player I've coached. It's hard to get in a groove until you've played enough plays. I'm confident that once he gets into a groove, he will be a heck of a quarterback for us.
again blows goes guy repair seen
I've seen a guy have an ACL (injury), then on the first day back, he blows it again, ... Then they repair it again and he goes on to 10 years in the NFL. Sometimes they take better than others.

I've never lost a game for H-O-R-S-E yet at my house,
