      Mentioned the tragic situation at Virginia.  Also mentioned the fan who lost his life at the game Saturday.  Football is not as important as these kinds of things.

      Had a slow start on Saturday, but that doesn’t matter because we scored 6 of our last 7 drives.

      The defense played excellently and only allowed Stanford less than 200 yards.

      The punter made a great decision on the fake punt.

      Converted on 4 of 4 4th down attempts.

      Big game this week in a tough environment.  One of the loudest places in the country.  Oregon has played great and did not play badly against UW either.

      We will have our hands full on defense this week.

      We have had our backs to the wall since the UCLA game so we are used to it.  The players have handled it well.  We welcome pressure games.

      Gratifying that we have been in the PAC12 race in November for many years.  It is thanks to the assistants, their recruiting, and coaching.

      He sees Thomas as being a big part of what we do this week.

      Harding is one of the best Oline coaches in the country.  They brought in their third center on Saturday and didn’t miss a beat.  They hope to have one of the other centers back this week.

      The big difference in the PAC12 this year is the QBs.

      The Oregon loss on Saturday could affect them in good ways or bad for the game this week.

      The film doesn’t lie.  We will study the film for many hours and make our game plan accordingly.  A lot of things go into the film study.

      We are not completely ruled by analytics.  It does play a big part, but we look at what is going on in the game and in the trenches before making a decision on if they go for it on 4th down.

      Kincaid is not 100% yet.  They only used him in receiving situations last week.  They tried not to use him on plays where he needed to block.

      They are in the process of looking at what they will do for the QB room next year.  Sounds like they will be looking at the portal.  However, he likes Barnes and Johnson.

      Likes what Johnson has done.  He is lightning-quick and has handled all of it with a lot of poise.

      He always wants what is best for the player when the player is deciding if he should leave.

      He will have all the conversions with the players after the season.  He was asked about Cam and he said they will talk in December.

      Our defense is better because less unforced errors, better tackling, completing assignments, etc.  We had a lot of inexperienced players early in the season and now they are battle tested.
