yeah a huge tone Setter um you know it's it's no other place to play but uh here and kind of the hype is is kind of where we wanted and you know we we handle business um you know it's it's just a name uh at the end of the day we're knowre Dame and you know we feel like we can compete with anybody and you know that we showed that today you know it's you know we always say execution fuels emotion and then when you have a success like that you're emotional man you're I appreciate our fans me we had we knew right where they were going to be I showed the players I showed the the whole football program I said this is right where our fans are going to be this is exactly what the stadium is and so we knew right where to go and and we appreciate uh our fans that travel from all over the country to support us and it's just a proud moment man sometimes your emotions gets the best of you but hopefully that happens after a game not during we want to be aggressive we want to be a attacking um and if I tell our group that we want to be aggressive and attacking I have to be that way as a coach and you got to live with sometimes on Fourth and two you didn't get it um I felt confident that we could get it um I made a decision and um and that's why we did it but I don't want to play cautious I want to be smart we have a plan going into the game and this was our plan hey if it was one yard at this situation we're going for it if it's two yards at this situation we're going for it um but I want to be aggressive but also smart too you know what it reminded me of is the Duke game from last year right and it was the the thought process do we tell them to go down if something happens when we break it do we tell him to go down or we do score and I just I didn't want to put that in his head I didn't want to take points off the board um the analytics will probably tell you to go down and uh but again it you know again just as I told Den Brock man keep battling were we tied at that time or we were we were tied at that time I can't remember but hey we were good I it was a lot of confidence I remember I kept saying in hle like this this is right where we want to be this is right what we talked about we got a lot of confidence and I'll go execute on this play right and so that was my communication with him yeah yeah I felt great uh that's obviously one of my one of my strengths so I I play the game you know the way I play I play the game I won't change that for anybody or anything or any injury you know it can't stand in my way so um I was able to use it to my benefit tonight and uh you know get after it with the legs a little bit it's tough especially in that environment that's an environment that I'm sure none of us have really ever played in before I mean the SEC is different coming down here in Texas is different um I I remember looking up and like trying to see the end of the stands and like you literally just can't even see the top um incredible place to play very grateful for the outcome obviously and yeah love these guys yeah it means everything to me to be a new guy that comes in um and wasn't really able to participate much in the winter and the spring with my injuries I made it a point of emphasis in the summer to get after it um as far as leadership and uh you know getting my body back um I think it's it's paid off and it's only just beginning I think this was an opportunity for me to prove to my teammates that not only can I lead them off the field but I can lead them on the field as well when when it really matters [Music]
