On improving the red zone defense…

“The biggest part is just communication form the whole defense, everyone being on the same page. We’re moving as one-unit instead of a bunch of individuals. I think if we can get on the same page and just communicate better that will have a big part in it.

On what changed in the second half of the South Carolina game…

“I’d say it goes back to all being on the same page. When we went to halftime, Coach Smart told us, ‘Take it one moment at a time.’ They have a very good offense, they have very good players, so we knew eventually they were going to hit a play. It’s just how we responded to them hitting the play. At halftime we all came in, settled down, got on the same page, and just realized who we are. We all just stuck together and that’s where connection comes in, being able to lean on each other and have confidence in each other.”

On WR Rara Thomas…

“He's one of our elite wide receivers. What he does is amazing. He’s very competitive, he can go up and get the ball. Just to see him get better week by week, day by day, and him being able to showcase his talents is just awesome to see. I see him put in the work every day throughout the week.”

On how the receivers played this weekend…

“I felt that we played together and every ball that came our way, we made it count. We were moving the ball efficiently as an offense and as a unit, we did what we were supposed to do.”

On how much of the offensive focus is on finishing the drives in the end zone…

“For us, points are points, but we would like to finish with touchdowns. We don’t really think of it like that, we try and take it one play at a time. When we get down there, whether we get a touchdown or a field goal, we’re happy and we know our defense is going to stop our opponent. That’s how we really look at it.”

On the mood in the locker room during halftime of the South Carolina game…

“The coaching staff really just told us to take it one play at at time, one drive at a time, one moment at a time. They said not to play to the scoreboard but to go out there, to leave it all out there for your brothers and good things would happen.”

On what the defense needs to do to improve in the red zone...

"Really just key in on our jobs. Everybody doing their job and playing their part. Sometimes during the game we would have a hole here and there so we would just try to bring that together and fix those mistakes."

On the journey back from his injury...

"It was hard. It was really hard from a mental standpoint because it caught me off guard. I came back quicker than I thought I would but I'm feeling better. It feels better and better every week so just trying to keep improving."

On starting alongside Jamon Dumas-Johnson...

"It's been really fun. Since our freshman year, we've talked about it. It's kind of crazy to see it come into light, the things we talked about and dreamed about. It's been fun."
