00:02 >> So you played Duke a lot throughout your career.

00:04 What's different about them this year?

00:05 >> That's a great question.

00:08 I think they're playing really hard.

00:10 I think they're a good team.

00:11 They kind of put everything together in the past that they've had to put it together.

00:15 Actually play well as a team and yeah, they're a good looking team.

00:19 So it's gonna be a good challenge on the road and some crappy weather.

00:22 >> You talked about the crappy weather there.

00:25 What are you guys doing this week to kind of prepare for what you might see there?

00:28 >> A lot of guys aren't using gloves during practice, practice catching without it.

00:32 Wet balls on the practice field, those kind of things.

00:35 But other than that, I mean, it's just really just a mindset from game day.

00:39 >> And then what is Duke do defensively that you guys are kind of honing in on

00:42 this week for your offensive preparations?

00:44 >> Same schemes as a lot of teams.

00:49 A lot of these ACC teams, the schemes are pretty similar and

00:53 the players are pretty similar, they're all talented.

00:54 So nothing special.

00:57 We're just going working day by day, putting in new reads and new looks and

01:02 each day we're gonna try something new.

01:04 >> The passing game hasn't quite been where it was last year.

01:08 How confident are you that it's gonna click pretty soon?

01:10 >> I'm very confident.

01:12 I mean, you look at the guys out there, Wicks, Lavelle, KT, and

01:16 I still believe in Brennan.

01:18 I hope people aren't losing their faith in him.

01:20 Super talented guys.

01:21 I don't think it's gonna be a problem.

01:22 I think pretty quickly people are gonna see we're still Virginia that they know.
