This group for what we need might be as good a defensive group that we've brought in. They are guys with good character, strong kids who want to be a part of a championship and that's what we're going to help them accomplish.

Now we have a one-game winning streak.

I don't know how he could have played much better. He has proven why he is an All-American. He is certainly the best second team All-ACC player that I've seen. He has played super all year giving us a stabilizing, veteran presence in the middle of a young defensive line.

He'll be better because he'll understand the other position. Plus it's helped depth.

Because they are older, more mature players, they're playing with a little more reckless abandon. It's all about getting 11 people swarming to the ball, gang tackling. We're doing a lot better job of that this year, a lot more like were accustomed to.

Our goal is always to hold the other team to 15 points or less. To hold them to three is really unbelievable.
