One of the best things this team has done is play them one at a time. If you're going to win an SEC championship, that's what you have to do. Nothing changes for us.

We had a lot of play calls for Chris and were trying to get him the ball, but they played great defense. Every time Chris got the ball, they were right in his face, so he really couldn't get anything off.

We're just trying to stay confident and humble at the same time. It's a lot more fun. This pace is what I like to play, and we have the athletes and shooters to do what Coach Pearl wants to do.

I think we're going to play well. We don't really have any names back there. We don't have a Gaines Adams or an Anthony Waters in our secondary, but we'll develop some by the first couple of games.

I felt pretty good about it. I just needed a chance.

I think (fatigue) was a big factor; we were probably still kind of tired from the Florida win, and all the beating and bruising we did.
