00:00 >> A lot of points, school record for modern day football.
00:04 Just how proud of you as a member of the offensive that did that.
00:08 Is that a stat you guys care about?
00:09 Is that you pride in that?
00:11 >> I mean, it was cool.
00:13 I just think we're just focusing on execution.
00:15 Obviously getting points on the board, we wanna be a high powered offense.
00:18 Yeah, execution, getting things done and just doing everything the right way.
00:23 So yeah, it's cool though, definitely.
00:24 >> Talking off season about adding all the new weapons to this offense.
00:29 How did those guys sort of help you out and get you open today?
00:33 >> I think everybody did a good job, everybody did their part.
00:36 And yeah, I think everybody just has their 111th and
00:41 when we do it, the outcome is that, so yeah.
00:44 >> 260 in yards after catch for offensive players for you guys.
00:49 How, is that the norm for you in fall camp?
00:52 Dan mentioned that was something that really stressed you guys.
00:56 >> He put a big emphasis on that.
00:57 And that's what we've just been working on, fall camp, spring ball, and
01:01 things like that, so yeah.
01:03 >> Is there a moment in the first half that you kind of felt things click today or
01:07 was it just coming in right back to like it was last season?
01:11 >> Yeah, I think we definitely got off to a hot start, got some touches in early.
01:16 And yeah, then I'm in the flow of the game then, so yeah.
01:19 >> Think of Gary's performance, you had 100 yards, he also had 100 yards.
01:25 And he didn't play a lot last season just at USC obviously, but
01:28 what did you make of his performance?
01:30 >> I was talking to our guys today on the bench, he's back.
01:33 I told him congratulations, he's back type deal, so yeah.
01:36 >> How do you feel about this receiver room after today?
01:40 >> I like it a lot, I think everybody has a difference to them.
01:48 And we just all fit together, I really like it a lot though.
01:50 >> The pop passes in this offense, and I know you guys had a little bit last year,
01:55 but I mean you had a big gain on one today.
01:58 I think there was a touchdown on another.
02:00 When you have this deeper receiving core, what is that kind of play,
02:04 that RPO action with Bo and that many weapons to throw to?
02:07 Just what does that do for this offense?
02:09 >> I think it does a lot for us, obviously, one, it keeps the defense true.
02:12 They have to stay true to them, they can't really run exotic things.
02:16 And then it just obviously helps us more with opening things like that, so yeah.
