00:00 >> Was your mom able to make you any of that Thanksgiving food?
00:03 >> I believe we got mac and cheese at home waiting.
00:06 I'm excited.
00:06 I'm really excited.
00:07 Yeah.
00:08 >> How excited are you to get into the shot at Washington?
00:11 >> Man, I mean, just another opportunity to reach our goals every single week.
00:15 So this is what it takes, this is what we've been working for and we're excited.
00:19 >> In terms of being that the only team that has beaten you in the world,
00:22 are you looking forward to getting another chance at them?
00:25 >> I mean, that's always fun, but we are ready to go against whoever's up next.
00:29 So obviously Washington, I believe they're going to the Pac-12 championship.
00:32 We're excited to see them.
00:33 Obviously, it didn't come out the way that we wanted it to before, but
00:36 we're ready for another challenge.
00:37 We're ready for another opportunity, so I'm excited.
00:39 >> You've been on teams that have won the Pac-12 before.
00:44 Why is this team similar to that group?
00:46 >> It reminds me of those dudes that were here before me.
00:50 Guys like Lamar Winston, Justin Hollins, Jalen Jones, Justin Herbert, Shane,
00:54 the Mew, Jake, all those guys, they set the example of what it takes to reach
00:58 the goals that we wanna reach, which is the Pac-12 championship.
01:01 So being in this position to be able to go back, try and work for another one,
01:04 I'm excited.
01:05 This is great for us, and I'm just ready to go back to work.
01:10 >> How did this one feel in the context of what happened last year in this game?
01:13 >> We were talking about it all week that we gotta take this one a little bit more
01:16 personal.
01:17 Obviously, they got us at the very end of last year, and
01:19 we couldn't let that be the same.
01:20 So our biggest emphasis was to play all four quarters, play sound and
01:25 play as clean as we can be with each other.
01:27 And I feel like we were able to do that.
01:30 >> That first drive, you guys went almost eight minutes or
01:33 nine minutes of game time.
01:35 How much did that just set the tone for what you wanted this game to be?
01:39 >> I mean, that's what we got to do every Tuesday, every Monday afternoon, or
01:42 I mean, every Monday morning.
01:43 We got there to go move the ball how we need to, execute however we need to.
01:46 So to be able to do something like that, that's our standard, and
01:49 that's what we hold ourselves accountable to.
01:50 So that's a must every single time we step on the field.
