We just realized we had to pick up the defense. Talk more and help out.

We've been around long enough to know that defense gives you a shot to win any game. We've done a pretty good job of almost demanding it from everyone else this year.

Last year, there were some nights we'd play defense, then some nights we would let our offense just do it.

One thing that we're working on is team defense. They work hard, communicate and get everybody involved. It kind of looks like a storm out there sometimes.

We probably learned the ins and outs of (the 46 defense) in two days, but it took about 10 years to really put it into action,

We were very competitive again tonight, the defense had two goal line stands and the offense put together some good drives. We need to be more aggressive on defense and hold our blocks a little longer on offense.
