How does it feel to get the win if you want? Yeah, it feels great. It's our first, I mean, game one win in the last, since I've been here. So it feels good. But obviously a lot of things to clean up and we're not satisfied. So we got, we got a long ways to go is kind of the feeling you get the win. Yeah, I mean, for me, I don't feel too good about it but, you know, you just got to look at it kind of half full. I mean, we won the game and early on it looked like we really could have just put it on him and we kind of just, I don't know, we just let him off the gas. So going forward just, you know, cleaned a lot of stuff up. We got a big game next week. So it's kind of just a move on process. We know we're a way better defense than that. So we're just excited to go back out there again. I know you haven't watched the film. What are some of the bigger things you think you do need to clean up? I mean, all around. There's plenty of things you can clean up, especially in the game one, you know, I mean, game one game planning you all year. So there's everything on defense we could clean up, you know, and we will do that stand out in the game and it happened on defense, one was the personal foul that you guys got almost, got off the field up big in the game and you guys give that up another one though. That was the exact opposite. In fact, that was your play. Like if you don't get that, it feels like this game gets scary. So how big was that play? It happened a few times where, you know, we get three good plays and then we shoot ourselves in the foot and this game could have been over a lot earlier, but it just comes with our team being more disciplined. We have an older group, but we got to clean stuff up and stuff like that happens in game one and we kind of knew that coming in, but going forward, we could do better as far as my play. I'm just doing whatever I can to help the team win and it was a big time moment because I know we need to stop. So I'm happy about that, but obviously plenty to clean up. So that's what we're focused on. I was eager, I was excited to get back out there. I knew my team needed me. I know, the team needed the defense. We were playing well early on and we felt so we just needed to find the energy to rally the troops and get guys confident going back on the field, you know, because momentum shifted and I have to do whatever I have to do to help my teammates when they score and they get the ball again and off goes for it right away, then they score and all of a sudden win the game. What was the mindset there for the, for the defense? Yeah. So, I mean, momentum, we felt the shifting and then when it shifted, you know, you can either, um just kind of keep your head down or pick guys up. So I'm proud of our guys for, you know, keeping our heads up. You know, we didn't flinch, we knew we were going to be in a tough one early on. It didn't look like it, but, you know, they kept fighting. I mean, that's a good team, you know, that's a good offense. They all returned. So, um I mean, it, it was tough, you know, giving up the lead obviously after having such a big lead early on, but, uh there's plenty to learn from and it's better learning from the win than a loss. So we're happy about that. What's happening. Yeah, I mean, it's crazy and honestly, it's not really too much of a surprise to a lot of us here. We know what he can do. I mean, that's my roommate. We talk about it every day, what type of season we want to have and what type of season he wants to have personally. And we believe in him, we know that he can do great things and he just showed it today. I mean, six touchdowns is something crazy. You know, it hasn't happened here in a long time. So he's a big time player with my best friend for sure. And I'm proud of him and he's going to keep leading us and I'm going to do my part to get the defense together. Yeah, I mean, third down conversions, we're really just shooting ourselves in the foot, you know, got to win more one on one matchups and just play sound football. You know, we were playing great on 1st and 2nd down and we're getting a third down and then we're letting them off the hook and that happened a lot. But we know that there's a lot of things that we did to ourselves and only we can fix and we know we will. So going forward, hopefully those change. Appreciate it. Talk.
