00:06 >> Yeah, we came in this game, we wanna score a lot of points.
00:10 Haven't had the best week, the past couple weeks on our side of the ball, so
00:14 we wanna come out and make a statement.
00:16 Yeah, everybody, it's an aggressive play call, an aggressive play up front and
00:20 by the receiver, by everybody.
00:21 So, yeah, we just wanna score a lot of points.
00:24 >> How much fun was it for you guys to start at the plate?
00:27 You guys punted on the first three drives, but then you scored five straight
00:30 touchdowns.
00:30 >> Yeah, it was really fun when the stuff started clicking,
00:33 so everybody was getting the ball, everybody was scoring.

01:25 me to process everything.
01:27 I think the past couple games, we had a lot of penalties, a lot of slides,
01:31 a lot of false starts on the whole.
01:32 I think this game, we had one or two.
01:36 So I think it was a lot of self-discipline issues.
