behind four game nobody start teams top wants win
It's a big game for us. Nobody wants to start out behind in our region. I feel like Neal will be one of the top four teams in our region. If we want to be one of the top three, we need to win this game.

The difference in the second half was two-fold. We executed better, and we made good use of our game plan, which was to score quick on the opening drive and take the wind out of their sails.

Our defense just broke down and didn't tackle. That score should've never happened.
against defense gave good last played playing plays return team time
Our defense is playing real good right now. The punt return team gave up the touchdown. The defense played real well against Troy. They had two big plays for their touchdowns. Other than that, we didn't give up much. I feel a lot better our defense than I did this time last year.

We wanted to keep the ball on the ground throughout the game and wear them down, and we were able to do that.

We were able to get some good kickoff returns tonight and were able to set the wedge. James hit it hard and broke it like he should.

I think James was probably just tired from those long runs he had in the first quarter, so he needed time to rest.

If we got anything out of playing in the 7 on 7 camps this summer, it was finding a safety to take some heat off (quarterback) Alonzo Foster. We found that Kevin Marshall could play safety.
physical second
We got a little more physical in the second half.

There are a number of people who've contacted us to try to get us to consider book and movie deals. We have not given serious consideration to any agreement.
