00:00 That was pretty obvious.
00:03 Little slower on offense,
00:04 but the story of the day was they
00:06 made more plays than we made.
00:08 They're good team.
00:09 I we've got a really good football team
00:11 and I think as we get more comfortable
00:13 with who we are and what we're doing,
00:16 we got enough weapons on
00:17 offense to be effective.
00:19 We've got some defensive
00:20 people that can make plays.
00:22 We need to win the turnover bottle
00:24 and win the kicking game,
00:25 but there were times that we were outstanding.
00:28 We just have to consistently and you
00:30 knew potentially it would be an issue.
00:33 When you've had as little work,
00:35 really,
00:35 as we've been able to have.
00:37 So putting 60 minutes together
00:39 is going to certainly be the goal.
00:42 You see question our guys
00:43 were ready to play there.
00:45 This is a pretty fierce group.
00:47 This is a confident group.
00:50 They're going to get better
00:52 and better and better.
00:53 But I haven't had the benefit of a real camp.
00:57 When you start school early and just
00:59 it's different, it's different for everybody,
01:01 not just us.
01:02 Sure, it's different for Notre Dame,
01:04 but that's a very talented team and we
01:06 we've got to score touchdowns when we get
01:09 the chance that's something I can help
01:11 a great deal with and then we gotta
01:14 play better in the second half.
01:16 If we did on offense,
01:17 but again,
01:18 I really pleased with chase Bryce.
01:20 I thought it was a lot hanger hat on there.
01:23 We just better consistently higher
01:24 percentage of the team and we
01:26 had a better percentage.
01:28 I thought we had run the ball better
01:30 against Notre Dame,
01:31 even though they're awfully good.
01:32 We came close at times,
01:34 but not nearly consistent enough.
