Speaker 1 (00:00):
We always say it's a fourth quarter game and we
just been doing enough to finish. I would say earlier
in the game of the Office Online, we didn't do
enough in the run game. I think we could have
run the ball a little bit better, especially in some
of the four minute opportunities when they had base personnel.
We would have got a few first downs that would
have kept us out of those situations. So that's what

(00:21):
when something happens like this, I just try to look
at what I can do and what the office on
line can do to, you know, help.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
The team when when they when the Jude misses that
extra point there, you obviously do the math time. You
know right away what what.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
What's coming down here?

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Right?

Speaker 1 (00:34):
So so what was your.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
What was your feeling?

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Then? I think everybody is in this together. This is
a team. Everybody makes mistakes. It happens as part of football.
But we just got to do better as a collective
finishing when it matters the most.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
How hard is it play offense in that fourth quarter
when you're towing the line between like what's worked all
game and trying to run out the clock, Because it
almost seemed like you guys got away from what got
you at nineteen point leader.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Yeah, we had some game plan runs that we had
for a situation like that, you know, for me offense,
and it was it was a little bit, I guess
beyond four minutes. It was like six minutes left, and
we had some game plans. Like I said, we just
got to execute better up front. They did a good
job nothing this on those tricks.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
They talked a lot of trash, especially Benito this week
had that we didn't see you on Friday. Did that
make its way to you? And was that any kind
of you know, chip on your shoulder In this game,
I played the.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Same regardless of what said online. We speak with your
pads and they won the game. So I'm not really
you know, to focus on that. I just do what
I can, try to get the group ready as a unit,
and you know, put the best film out there. Andrew,
what did Dodge show you after a the late interception
to get you on a drive that actually puts you

(01:52):
ahead in the final moments of the game. Keyword that
we talked about this year's reload thatstmentality. Obviously, you know
we had to turnover in the game, but our intention
was to go down the course and we did that.
We did a good job, made some place for us,
and I think it's gonna, you know, be a really
good player for us in the future. What did you
think about that draft?

Speaker 2 (02:10):
That Leaf draft?

Speaker 1 (02:11):
That was stood out to you about that too, just
to the tenacity that we had. I think it because
of the momentum shift. It's easy to put your head
down the momentum is going that way, the crowd is
getting loud. But we thought as a unit and as
a team, you know, to come back and we just
gotta finish better. Mm hmmm.
