00:00You know, when you're at home, you use your cadence as a weapon.
00:04You can't really do it on the road.
00:05You have a lot of different silent cadences that you can use on the road,
00:09but it's just not as effective.
00:12And so when you can use your cadence as a weapon,
00:15you get the defense to show what they're doing
00:18and get in and out of plays and get in and out of protection calls,
00:22whereas on the road that's a lot harder.
00:26And so that's why home field advantage in the playoffs is so important.
00:30And, yeah, like you said, this is as big of a game as we've had here for a while.
00:35We lost to them early in the season.
00:39So, number one, with the standings at the end of the year, you want that to be split.
00:45And number two, for first place outright.
00:49And so, like you said, huge game.
00:52It's been a long time since you've played a game with these kind of stakes.
00:56What's it like to kind of after the last three years
00:58to finally have a game that means something of this magnitude again?
01:01Yeah, it's exciting, but one game's not going to determine it,
01:06and six or seven wins isn't going to get you to where you want to be.
01:10So a long season left.
01:13It's a big game this week.
01:14But next week is a big game, too, and the week after that and the week after that.
01:17So we're just focused on this one and trying to make this one a win and go from there.
01:24Do you take any extra gratification that you all have been able to shift kind of the paradigm
01:28back to what it was back in 21 and 22 for you all?
01:31Kind of how it's been due for you?
01:32It's got to win.
01:33It's got to win, and everything else takes care of itself.
01:35So...
01:35you
