becomes deals four row string
So I said, 'Well, I'll try it,' and we proceeded to string four (wins) in a row together, and it becomes one of those deals where you don't ever go back.
twice
I've never had that before, in how many years of coaching? So we've had it twice in two games, so we've got to get that squared away, too.
answers confidence guys played position time
We've got some answers with some guys who have played this position before. We have confidence in those other guys that have played when that time does come up.
upset
I was pretty upset with the way we played.
ball field good held holding kept position
We got tired, no doubt. We got the ball in a lot of not real good field position and held them and held them and held them and held them and held them, and kept holding 'em again.

We looked like we were running in mud sometimes at Wake Forest and not generating the kind of pressure that we need. I don't know if it's the right answer, honestly. I think the right answer is just (to) get better at rushing four.
curve learning process seventh sound
It's a learning curve and a process that we're in right now. It probably doesn't sound right being in the seventh year, honestly.
guys step
We're going to put it on those two guys, but frankly, I think there are some other guys that can step up and get there, too.
close gonna guarantee happen pictures time wall
We are getting there. And I guarantee you there's gonna be a time when we can get our pictures up on the wall right there for having a No. 1 defense. It just isn't going to happen now. I'm not here because they were close to that.
good limits trying
