00:00I mean, you definitely have to go into this game with a chip on your shoulder
00:02because if you don't, it's just, it's not going to go how you want it.
00:06Like, these guys are, like I said, playing a different type of football that we're not used to.
00:12So, yeah, we definitely have to go in with a chip on our shoulder.
00:15A lot of grit, a lot of heart, and just everyone needs to be on the same page
00:19in executing their plays and their assignments.
00:22I'm definitely excited.
00:24It's an opportunity to go showcase my talents
00:27and my teammates to showcase their talents.
00:30So, I was definitely excited.
00:31And, yeah, I mean, it felt good.
00:33I mean, not everyone gets the opportunity to play SEC football.
00:36So, yeah, it was definitely exciting.
00:44Three through eight, back up.
00:46Three through eight, back up.
00:49What will be different is their offensive lineman by size and strength.
00:55You know, I don't know if none of our players have played against it.
01:01And, of course, we've played TCU and we've played Baylor.
01:04I was in the SEC.
01:05That's not taking anything from those schools.
01:08But, you know, the Floridas, the Alabamas, the Texans, and the Ams.
01:12I've worked at five, seven, six of those schools.
01:15I know what they look like.
01:16I know how strong they are.
01:17I know how fast they are.
01:18And they're not going to take this game lightly.
01:20They are preparing like they're playing Georgia right now.
01:23There's no doubt.
01:24And, you know, you think about it.
01:26And what's crazy is they probably got one kid that's on his one NLI.
01:31It's more than our entire budget.
01:34I want to just see us compete.
01:35If we can compete against teams, you see me.
01:37And when I say compete, you know, tackle them and get them down.
01:40Break a few plays.
01:41Ethan makes a couple of plays.
01:42A running back makes a couple of plays.
01:44Luka gets in and makes a couple of plays.
01:45I just want to see us do some things.
01:48If we do that, it will set the stage for what we have the rest of the season
01:52when we get in conference play.
01:53I was in the SEC 15th season.
01:56So this is definitely the biggest game, especially for our team.
02:00So we're playing the University of Florida in what they call the swamp.
02:04I've been there.
02:06It's loud.
02:07It's noisy.
02:08At least it will be at the start of the game.
02:11But it will be exciting for our players.
02:12Well, it wasn't anything I jumped up for joy about because, you know,
02:18they've got 105 guys on scholarship.
02:21And they're an SEC team.
02:24They're true and I owe money.
02:27It's how it goes.
02:29So Coach Napier is a good coach.
02:30His staff is good coaches.
02:32Great coaches, as a matter of fact.
02:34And we'll have our hands full.
02:37I just want to see our guys compete and play hard.
02:39All they can put on the field is 11 guys and we put our 11 out.
02:42So it's still 11 on 11 playing together as a team.
02:46They're a really good football team.
02:49They're big, they're strong, and they're fast.
02:51But we're going to play fast and we're going to play big.
02:55I want to come out the game healthy too.
02:57Yeah, the defensive players, when they make a big play or turnover,
03:05it's sort of like what came out years ago with the turnover chain.
03:07Yeah.
03:08They got the gas can for the water.
03:10You make a big play or interception, they use it to cool them down
03:15because they're sort of riled up.
03:16So you hoping that the gas can gets used a couple of times down in Gainesville?
03:21I do plan on the gas can getting used a few times.
03:24I don't know if I'll let them take it on the sideline,
03:25but I do plan on some big things happen for our team.
03:28All of y'all on camera.
