“I don’t know. I thought I was going out of bounds, but I just stayed in. I used to hurdle. I saw him going low so I went over the top.”

“We got a lot more explosive plays. We cleaned up the communication on offense, and our o-line opened up a lot more holes for us to run through.”

“Not turning over the ball... not knowing the plays... we communicated and worked on it in practice.”

“We’re a young team and we needed the first few games to get everything going.”

“The win against VMI gave us a lot of momentum... confidence going into the ACC and go full steam.”

“This is a conference game. It’s very important. Every game... this game and every game after that is very important, crucial.”

“It’s great. I have a lot of older guys ahead of me, guiding me. We all love each other and are there for each other. When I make a big play, you see Del cheering me on and the rest of them right behind him.”
