00:00 Obviously, proud that our team was able to go get a road win and
00:05 a convincing win in a lot of ways, but obviously if you saw that game,
00:11 there's a lot left to work on, continuing to take care of the ball better.
00:19 We've got a block and we really were closer to even have a bigger game and
00:23 run game.
00:25 Got to finish blocks, we got to finish tackles.
00:27 We had some of that and avoid giving up explosive plays.
00:31 And the reason I'm saying all that kind of leads to this week.
00:35 We're playing a really, really good North Carolina State team, well coached.
00:40 All three phases, they know how to win football games.
00:44 They play really well in the kicking game.
00:47 They're very aggressive on defense.
00:49 Since the Virginia Tech game, they have really been,
00:52 they've had a mentality, they're physical.
00:55 They tackle well, they play well together.
00:58 Very impressive defensive team and with Larry settling in at quarterback is
01:03 certainly in two really outstanding backs and a big physical offensive line and
01:09 receivers that can play.
01:11 So this is a complete football team.
01:13 With that said, we need to play a complete game and we know we're capable.
01:20 In all five of our games,
01:22 we've had moments where we've played really good football.
01:25 The thing we have to continue to do and our team will do this.
01:28 We're working really hard at practice.
01:30 They're doing everything we ask them to do.
01:33 But we need to put together a complete game and
01:35 it couldn't be a better week to do that than this one.
