[Our goal] is to talk on defense. [We need] to clear the ball so our offense can just take over.

We got three really good teams coming at us. They'll be pretty tough competition.

We got the Southeastern championship [at the end of the season]. [Our goal] is to win those each year.

[The defense] was big, strong and fast.

Our defense got backed up to the wall, but we still should have played better. I put those two on us. We're supposed to be the mainstay of the team. We stop them there, and it's six points, tops.

Japan played significantly better defense than the other teams I saw. They deserved to win.
