00:09 >> Yeah, I mean, first off, can't fumble, need better ball security on that.
00:14 And it's crazy cuz Roshun, I think he fumbled a player too before I fumbled on
00:17 the first one.
00:18 So I'm telling him, ball security is the most important thing right now,
00:21 then two plays later I fumbled.
00:23 Then the second one was like a backbreaker, but the guys never wavered.
00:28 So the guys in the locker room appreciate them for sticking beside me and
00:32 believing in me.
00:32 And defense did a great job by getting us the ball back for that last drive.
00:37 Offense did a great job executing those plays, so felt great.
00:40 And really just felt good of fighting through the adversity,
00:44 ups and downs of the game.
00:46 Guys never got too high or too low, and we fought and finished the game.
00:49 I mean, yeah, I really just wanted to prove to my teammates that I had their back.
00:56 The way the defense was playing all game, I had to come back and
01:00 at least give us a chance at the end.
01:03 So I mean, it felt great just with those two fumbles, adversities hitting after
01:07 the second one.
01:08 I was sick to my stomach, I'm not gonna lie to y'all.
01:10 But yeah, defense, three and out, got us the ball back.
01:13 And at the end of the day,
01:15 when you do have that opportunity at the end of the game, everything before that,
01:19 like I said before, it's out the window.
01:21 So you have, well, maybe that's all you have.
01:24 I forgot what the score was.
01:24 But all I know is that we needed a field goal.
01:26 And those two fumbles that I had, it was over with.
01:32 So had the present moment.
01:33 And like I said, guys did a great job executing at the end of the game when
01:38 we needed to execute.
01:39 Yeah, I mean, that's the play we run all the time in practice.
01:41 We've been running that play since I can remember.
01:45 But yeah, so the deep defenders get a bunch of depth with,
01:49 I think it was Tyler or Mooney or somebody.
01:52 But deep through in a deep corner and then really the only player that was
01:56 in the middle right there was 44 Metellus and he had no idea where DJ was.
02:00 Of course, O-Line did a great job protecting.
02:02 Great play call by Luke.
02:04 Like I said before, that's just a play that goes back all the way to training.
