00:00 Alright, well over here to the right, Dylan Davis, Delaware Gazette.
00:03 To play down the day and burn one of those games he has left.
00:07 Yeah, so he had two left and that's it.
00:12 So and then he's got next week.
00:14 So I just wanted to run out there and keep the pressure
00:18 because we need him to more or next week or down the stretch.
00:21 Well, yeah, we felt like we wanted to get him in the game a little bit
00:24 because it's been, you know, as he hasn't played a ton this year
00:28 and I felt like going into next week and moving forward,
00:32 you know, because he carries.
00:34 I don't know how many he ended up with.
00:35 Yeah, eight carries.
00:36 That's pretty good.
00:37 4.2 yards to carry.
00:38 Thought he ran good when he was in there.
00:40 [inaudible]
00:46 Yeah, the way that it's done in the past is that, you know,
00:50 you get four games and then you have postseason.
00:52 Yeah.
00:52 Okay, we're going to go two more questions for coach.
00:54 Steven Means, Cleveland.com.
00:56 Ryan, as you asked earlier,
00:58 Mike, I looked a little bit better today.
01:00 Obviously, Marvin's been Marvin all year.
01:01 The way Travion is running, the way Kyle's progressing.
01:04 Is this offense 11 games into the season
01:06 where you want it to be heading into next week?
01:09 Yeah, I mean, we're here now.
01:12 And is there always things we want to get better at?
01:14 Absolutely.
01:15 But I think you're seeing the identity that we're looking for.
01:18 I think you're seeing the run.
01:19 You're seeing the past.
01:20 You're seeing the explosiveness.
01:21 And that's what we want.
01:23 And we're 11 games in.
01:24 Time to go play.
01:26 Spencer Holbrook, Letterman Row.
01:28 Ryan, you talk all the time about how everything falls back
01:30 on the head coach, just at everything,
01:32 level of the program.
01:34 Next week means everything to the program.
01:37 Is it easier to stay focused on the days ahead
01:39 when you have the guys that you just currently need staying
01:43 locked in on the days ahead
01:44 and not trying to get ahead of themselves?
01:45 How much easier does that make it for you to stay ahead?
01:47 Yeah, I think the key is to stay in the moment.
01:50 You know, there'll be a motion this week.
01:53 There'll be a lot of--
01:56 yeah, there'll be a lot this week.
01:57 But there'll be noise.
01:58 There'll be everything.
02:00 What we have to do is we have to do a great job of preparing.
02:03 We can't be-- we have to stay with our routine,
02:08 just on maximizing every minute of this week.
02:11 And then noon on Saturday is going to come.
02:13 That's not going to come any faster by us,
02:15 you know, doing something else.
02:17 So we need a great week of preparation.
02:19 And then, you know, we're all in this thing together.
02:21 We are.
02:22 I love this team.
02:23 We've been working hard to get to this point.
02:25 And so we need a great week of preparation.
02:27 And then we get on that bus and we can get to our--
02:30 Final question for Coach, Rob Aller, Columbus Dispatch.
02:32 Yeah, I don't know your game day schedule,
02:34 but did you watch any of the Maryland-Michigan game?
02:36 Did you catch any of that?
02:37 What did you think?
02:39 I might have.
02:40 Yeah, I might have.
02:43 Yeah, I mean, you know, when you have time,
02:46 you're always watching the other games.
02:48 Certainly that one was--
