00:00 So I know most of you guys have gotten a chance to talk about it.
00:03 What did winning the Joe Moore award mean to you?
00:05 >> It was just surreal, man.
00:08 We've had a picture on a rack from whole off season to probably fall camp.
00:15 Every time we lift, every time before we do a set or something, touch it,
00:19 touch the picture and just try and speak it into existence.
00:21 So after practice when they showed up and we just, they tried to hide it, but
00:26 you can't really hide a trophy that big, you know what I'm saying?
00:29 So I look in the back and I see it and I turn around and tap shot, hey bro, we won
00:33 it, and it was just surreal, man.
00:35 I'm just grateful to be in the spot we are in today.
00:39 >> So Texas, they've got a really physical front, those two defensive tackles,
00:42 that's what everybody's talking about instead of you guys who won the Joe Moore
00:46 award.
00:47 So what do you feel you need to do to just kind of send a message early on that you
00:50 guys are the Joe Moore award winners?
00:52 >> Shout out to Texas, they got a, like you said, great defensive front,
00:57 front seven, they do a great job from what I've seen on film,
01:01 from being physical and whatnot.
01:03 But I feel like we don't gotta do nothing different,
01:05 we just gotta do what we've been doing this whole time, you know what I'm saying?
01:07 Shout out to my brothers that I grew up there, my other starting four with me,
01:11 shout out to those guys, bro, they make it all happen, you know what I'm saying?
01:14 And I feel like if we just do what we do and we're all on the same page all night,
01:17 we shouldn't, you know what I'm saying?
01:19 [LAUGH] It should be a good night on Monday.
