00:00 >> How does it feel just having that performance that you had today?
00:03 One pass, first career pass, rushing touchdown,
00:06 couple of touchdown receptions, how did you feel today?
00:08 >> Really it was just all the work we all put in.
00:09 I mean, my teammates, my quarterback, my whole line, I mean,
00:13 it was all just a team effort.
00:14 So being able to do that was something that we really expressed and exaggerated.
00:17 >> When you were stopped at the one, Mike said,
00:19 you didn't really want that last touchdown.
00:21 >> I know.
00:21 Nah, Mike, come on, man.
00:24 >> [LAUGH] >> Come on.
00:25 >> Hey, man, I told you.
00:26 >> [LAUGH] >> You didn't want that one.
00:28 >> Nah, I wanted it, but I don't know what happened.
00:30 I just put my nose down.
00:32 >> Do you feel like a throwback player cuz guys that catch run and throw it.
00:36 >> I came in the right way.
00:36 >> I used to do that in the 30s and 40s.
00:38 >> I mean, shoot, I think it just comes from my multiple sport background,
00:40 just playing baseball and track and football and being happy with my life.
00:44 >> You're gonna vote for him?
00:45 >> Yeah. >> I'm more than excited to vote for
00:46 you for Heisman because of your first touchdown.
00:49 >> Nah, I'm gonna vote for him for Heisman.
00:50 He's the man.
00:52 >> Jalen, how dialed in was Mike today?
00:54 >> Dialed, I mean, that's how he is every week.
00:56 He's always just going over films, staying late.
01:00 He's really just elite.
01:01 >> How important was patience as an offense?
01:04 You're kind of starting to look, sputtering early a little bit.
01:07 How important was for y'all just to stay focused and continue with your game?
01:11 >> I mean, things happen.
01:12 The unexpected happens, so we always just prepare for the worst.
01:15 And obviously, that wasn't the worst, but
01:17 we just got to know to get back on track and just start fresh again.
01:20 >> And then when you, the importance of the defense kind of picking up early
01:23 on in the first half, how important is that in your guys capitalizing on the win?
01:28 >> It's super important.
01:29 I mean, the defense in and out made great stops today and
01:32 was able to put us on the field, so we capitalized on the win.
01:35 >> Did you have more fun running, catching, or throwing the ball?
01:37 >> I mean, I just love helping my team, man.
01:39 At the end of the day, they can have me block, they can have me be a fullback.
01:44 I'll do whatever it takes for the team to win.
01:45 >> When's the last time you completed a pass in your life?
01:47 >> Shoot, that was, they should have gave me that pass for Wazoo, but Wazoo.
