They've never had any game experience, but on the other hand they go out and practice against maybe one of the top five offenses in the nation every day.

We were fired up because those are the kind of plays that change ball games. Everyone on the sideline was fired up.

We've got to take our hats to those guys. They were definitely ready to go.

One thing we wanted to emphasize was bringing a little more physical (play) to the defense.

It's hard to get better just in practice. There's nothing like the experience of the game.

Obviously they'll have an extra edge in having a year of experience and then spring practice this year. I'll do whatever I can to prepare and compete for the spot.
