Transcript

00:00 >> Awesome.

00:01 >> Yeah, 10 years ago you endured one of the toughest losses here ever.

00:04 And tonight, 10 years later, this happens here.

00:06 How does that make you feel?

00:08 >> I feel good.

00:09 >> [LAUGH] >> But, yeah,

00:14 we've had some tough ones.

00:16 [BLANK_AUDIO]

00:19 But still, the team that played the best always wins in this game.

00:26 And we played well, but we had to overcome ourselves because of penalties and

00:31 things like that on this field goal.

00:34 Not playing great on defense, but I can't tell you how proud I am of the guys and

00:40 how good I feel about winning the game.

00:44 But as a coach, you always look at things like, how did you play?

00:48 Because we're gonna have to play at a higher level on a more consistent basis if

00:54 we wanna have success in the future, and that's what you always evaluate.

00:58 That's the reality check that we all have to make.

01:02 >> Tony, does that final play have a name of any sort?

01:05 And then what do you tell Jalen going into that play?

01:07 Is it more just a good luck or, I mean, what do you tell him?

01:11 >> No, you tell him they're only gonna rush three guys, sometimes two.

01:15 And he's reading the guys down the field, and

01:18 they're doing things to try to get open.

01:23 And he's gonna have plenty of time,

01:25 he's gotta pick the guy that he thinks has got the best chance to catch it.

01:31 And IB got position on the guy, and Jalen did a good job of recognizing it and

01:36 throwing it.

01:37 And if the play had a name, I wouldn't tell you what it was.

01:40 >> [LAUGH]
