• 0:13
  Speaker 3: out there and get it.
• 0:13
  Speaker 4: But Nuh, just grateful. I feel like coach had a
• 0:15
  Speaker 4: great game plan.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: He schemes things up, and uh, when my numbers called
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: when I didn't made the plays.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: How do you feel like you've evolved in this offense
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: just in terms of being able to, you know, run
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: the football, catch, catch, screens, do different things. How how
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: much have you sort of grown in it?
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: I think I've grown a lot, But I feel like
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: I feel I've always been able to catch balls.
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: I'll be great in the screen game.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: I feel like coach does a great job of calling
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: the plays, you know, and putting in position to make plays.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: And uh, I feel like coaches a great understanding that
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: it's uh, it's player and not plays, you know, and
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: he go out there and put in to make plays.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: And uh, I'm just grateful that he's out coaching that
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: OCSO and I get to uh get the rewards from
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: from that for.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Real, Travis, what you see out of Trevor today.
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: Uh, just confidence, man, just confidence.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: I feel like Trumps just continued to grow, continue to
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: get better, and man, just the confidence, the swagger that
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: he's playing with. I mean, he's locked in. He's commending
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: the field, he commanded the offense. And as long as
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: you keep doing that the Scott's limbit for.
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: Us, Dravis, do you feel like the offense is kind
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: of finding its stride or like groove at this point?
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: For sure? I thought were kicking on all cylinders.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: I feel like we're not beating ourselves like we were
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: so many times earlier in the season. We're standing above
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: the chains. Uh, were just locked in. I feel like
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: we're executing. We're making the players when we needed to
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: make them and those started downs. I feel like Treub
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: keep making huge plays for us, and he's dialing things up,
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: and I feel like, man, it's just.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: Great to see.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: And I thought we got so many playmakers and just
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: everybody's coming just to get there as one. And I
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: feel like as long as we just all do our job,
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: just to living working as one. Scott's lemming for.
• 1:41
  Speaker 6: Us back in twenty two, Trevor got hot in the
• 1:45
  Speaker 6: second half of the year. Does this kind of feel
• 1:47
  Speaker 6: similar to that in a little bit? I mean, obviously
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: I know different plays, different games and stuff, but just
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: him starting to get on a roll at the most
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: important times, it feels similar.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: Nah, not at all.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: I don't think I ever seen Treuv like this, you know,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: And I feel like we wanted, we want to national
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: championship together, and I feel like, uh, he's just out there,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: He's on fire, man, Like you've seen it. He rolled
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: out again and he just kind of stopped and just
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: ship Parks down there somewhere, you know.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Uh, he launched it and Parking made a great catch.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: So man, I'm just great for that.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: I'm on this team and the group that I've seen
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: through him from him, man, just unbelievab when it forces
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: everybody else step over that game as well.
• 2:25
  Speaker 7: Me, Sweet Travis. A lot was made when Liam came
• 2:29
  Speaker 7: over from Tampa about who's going to be the Bucky
• 2:31
  Speaker 7: Irving in this offense. And I think a lot of
• 2:33
  Speaker 7: folks nationally may be underestimated your past catching ability. How
• 2:36
  Speaker 7: have you seen it grow under Liam's tutelage? You keep
• 2:39
  Speaker 7: referencing that he puts you in a position to succeed.
• 2:41
  Speaker 7: Why are his plays putting you in that position to
• 2:44
  Speaker 7: reach a new ceiling?
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I mean my hand has always been good.
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: Let's not like that.
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: The hans always been a question that that's for sure.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: I got you, I got you.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Now the coach, he's just got a conference to
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: go out there and call the plays.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: I feel like, uh, I've been just working in the shadow,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: just a practice, just catching balls and just doing it
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: and practice over and over again. But just coach, you
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: got the confidence to go out there and call it.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: And I feel like that's the difference.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: He calls the players.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: He calls the players he wants to score a touchdown
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: and he gets the ball to play maker's hands, and uh,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: he just have confidence in us. I man, he see
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: it day in the day out. And then him just
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: calling the players give him a chance to go out
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: there and make those plays traive dollar up throwing and man,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: I'm just grateful that I'm want to receive them any
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: of that.
• 3:23
  Speaker 6: It's taking a little while for the screen game to
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: really evolve. Can you put your finger on why it
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: took so long?
• 3:28
  Speaker 8: And why it's working now.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, you gotta understand, defense is not gonna let
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: me just go out there and just just do whatever,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: you know. I feel like they kind of got an
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: iron where one is, you know, so when they were
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: kind of developing the screen, you got a back are
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: always iron you.
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: It's kind of hard to get those things going.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: But I feel like with everybody was coming to live,
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: things coming to live, Trav just dotting people up.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Now they got other things to worry about.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: So I feel like that's really working in my favorite
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: and uh just feel like Trumb's keeps doing what he
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: do made my job like easier and we just comming
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: with each other.
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: Cool threat.
• 4:00
  Speaker 8: Is that Charlie on your chest?
• 4:02
  Speaker 7: Uh?
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: Probably, I have no idea who it was, just the
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: coolest shirt.
• 4:10
  Speaker 9: A couple of questions here for you. Last time you
• 4:12
  Speaker 9: were involved in a game in which you guys on
• 4:14
  Speaker 9: offense score fifty points. You have to go back to
• 4:16
  Speaker 9: Clemson against Pittsburgh, so scoring eight times and nine possessions.
• 4:21
  Speaker 9: Talk about what that just felt like today out there,
• 4:24
  Speaker 9: I just.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Thought were clicking on all cylinders.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: But I feel like it just goes to the mindset
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: that coach established you know, I feel like we locked
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: in throughout the whole game. We went up a few touchdowns,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: we're not We're still locked in as if to score
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: a zero zero you know, we're going out there just
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: making the play when the players called, like we just
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: taking in one play at a time, and this is
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: the true growth.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: I feel like we just locked in.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: We just just the whole game, you know, just locked
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: in in a moment. We're not worry about the outcome
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: of what's going to happen. So whenever you're able to
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: be present in the moment, you're able to have things
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: like that happen.
• 4:55
  Speaker 9: Yeah, And secondly, a lot of most of this has
• 4:58
  Speaker 9: happened since you've gotten Jacoke from from Vegas. It just
• 5:03
  Speaker 9: like he's like the go to guy receiver. Wise throw
• 5:06
  Speaker 9: it in his area, he throw you know, he catches it.
• 5:08
  Speaker 9: How infectious is that among other people coming out of
• 5:11
  Speaker 9: the backfield, yourself or other receivers just to throw me
• 5:14
  Speaker 9: the ball and I'll catch it.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: And I was very effacious.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: I mean after I called the first touchdown, I kind
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: of came to the sideline and said, I feel like
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Jakobe mais you know, you know, when you got a
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: guy like that, guy like that who's.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Just catching everything.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: I can't be the one to go out there and
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: drop my little one pass, you know, so I feel
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: like it just elevates everybody else game around you, and
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: everybody gets around him, you know. I feel he made
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: us all so much better. I feel like he's always
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: making place, he's always catching the ball, he's locking it up,
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: he's always doing the right thing. He always in the
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: right place at the right time. So that forces guys
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: to be better. You know, he's he's kind of set
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: in the standard. He came, he set the standard, and
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: I feel like it raised everybody else level of playing.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Just very grateful that he's on my team.
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: Thank y'all. Unbelievable career day.
• 5:55
  Speaker 10: Just what were your thoughts of this performance and you know,
• 5:59
  Speaker 10: and what were you able to do in the offense
• 6:01
  Speaker 10: able to do to be so successful today?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: In your opinion?
• 6:04
  Speaker 10: Uh, yeah, I mean I think we just we executed
• 6:07
  Speaker 10: really well. We've gotten the right plays against the right
• 6:10
  Speaker 10: looks against what the Jets were doing.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: So I felt like we had a really good plan.
• 6:15
  Speaker 10: I think guys just made a lot of plays down
• 6:16
  Speaker 10: the field, and you know, I was able to give
• 6:18
  Speaker 10: them opportunities. And uh, I mean we protected so good
• 6:21
  Speaker 10: up front, so that that also helps. You got a
• 6:23
  Speaker 10: lot of time back there to to distribute and let
• 6:25
  Speaker 10: guys get open.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: So our group up front did a great job day. Again,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: no sacks to day.
• 6:30
  Speaker 10: I mean, that just doesn't happen often, and we've we've
• 6:32
  Speaker 10: done it a lot this year. So proud of those
• 6:34
  Speaker 10: guys up front. They've been they've been playing great. And yeah,
• 6:37
  Speaker 10: like I said, we just we just came to play.
• 6:39
  Speaker 10: We made the plays down the field when we needed to.
• 6:41
  Speaker 10: We were pretty good on third down as well. Didn't
• 6:44
  Speaker 10: have a ton of them today, but we were really
• 6:45
  Speaker 10: good on third down when we needed it and kept
• 6:48
  Speaker 10: us on the field.
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: What was the shrug for after the throw to Parker?
• 6:53
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it was more I was looking at at Liam
• 6:55
  Speaker 10: and Grant over there. It was more so we had
• 6:57
  Speaker 10: a we had an issue in the protection where they
• 6:59
  Speaker 10: had an extra guy and this was a good disguise
• 7:01
  Speaker 10: by New York on that one.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: They held it.
• 7:04
  Speaker 10: Pretty late, brought cover zero, so I knew right away
• 7:07
  Speaker 10: at the snap I was gonna be hot. So just
• 7:08
  Speaker 10: trying to create some time and let Parker get down
• 7:11
  Speaker 10: the field. So knew that would be my answer, And
• 7:14
  Speaker 10: you know, it's kind of like similar to last week,
• 7:16
  Speaker 10: so just it's kind of struggling, Like I know, it's
• 7:19
  Speaker 10: like I probably should should have fixed that one the protection,
• 7:21
  Speaker 10: but we made a play again, So.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Just playing ball. What happened to your finger?
• 7:26
  Speaker 10: I just jammed it in either in the ground or
• 7:28
  Speaker 10: on someone's leg or clean or something. When I dope
• 7:30
  Speaker 10: for that the weird play where I was trying to
• 7:32
  Speaker 10: just throw it on the grounds, I thought we were
• 7:34
  Speaker 10: gonna get a false started, They're gonna blow the play dead.
• 7:36
  Speaker 10: So I was just trying to get out of my
• 7:37
  Speaker 10: hands and I get hit and just went for the
• 7:40
  Speaker 10: ball and jammed it.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: It'll be fine, though, It'll be good, finish the game,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: be all right.
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: Trevor Traves et and just kind of mentioned that he
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: hasn't seen you play this confident, even dating back to
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: when y'all won the Natty at Clemson. Do you is
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: there a time you can remember that you were playing
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: maybe this confident, this free out on the football field.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's a tough question. I don't know there's been. Yeah,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: there's there's in times.
• 8:00
  Speaker 10: Where I've I've felt that way and but definitely this
• 8:05
  Speaker 10: as confident as I've as I've felt, just the feeling
• 8:09
  Speaker 10: in our locker room and our team and our offense.
• 8:11
  Speaker 10: I mean, it's been fun. So we got to continue
• 8:13
  Speaker 10: to build on that and can't get complacent.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 8:15
  Speaker 10: There's still a lot more ahead for us and some
• 8:18
  Speaker 10: big games coming up, so we got to continue to
• 8:20
  Speaker 10: push and get better. Like there's there's still things we
• 8:23
  Speaker 10: need to clean up, but it's it's been a lot
• 8:24
  Speaker 10: of fun and I feel great, feel confident, and I
• 8:27
  Speaker 10: think our whole offense feels that way.
• 8:29
  Speaker 7: You finished as the team's leading rusher in terms of
• 8:32
  Speaker 7: the run to pass disparity. Was it just a matter
• 8:36
  Speaker 7: of the passing game looked awesome and so you guys said,
• 8:38
  Speaker 7: we'll just keep ripping it.
• 8:40
  Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I think so it was, uh, you know,
• 8:43
  Speaker 10: when you throw it as well as we did today,
• 8:45
  Speaker 10: throw and catch and just the plays we made in
• 8:47
  Speaker 10: the passing game, it's yeah, maybe we didn't rush for
• 8:50
  Speaker 10: a ton, but we didn't necessarily.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Need to, you know.
• 8:52
  Speaker 10: And there was a lot of times too where they
• 8:53
  Speaker 10: played a lot of man coverage. So when you're running
• 8:56
  Speaker 10: the ball, that's a lot of times there's an extra
• 8:58
  Speaker 10: hat in the box. So we took advantage that by
• 9:00
  Speaker 10: throwing the ball and you know, exploiting some matchups and
• 9:03
  Speaker 10: guys winning. And so there's there's a lot that goes
• 9:04
  Speaker 10: into that. It's not all just everybody throw the ball
• 9:07
  Speaker 10: every play. There's those A lot goes that goes into
• 9:09
  Speaker 10: it and can kind of get you into some passes
• 9:11
  Speaker 10: when they're when they're playing a lot of single high man.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: That's that's what you want to do.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Four touchdowns by the running backs today, I mean, what
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: can you say about the way they played and the
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: way you guys were able to kind of scheme them
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: up on a couple of those.
• 9:23
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, we had a great one to toot
• 9:25
  Speaker 10: in there, great play on felt good about that one
• 9:28
  Speaker 10: all week.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: And you know, he does a great catch.
• 9:30
  Speaker 10: Threw it a little bit high and he went up
• 9:32
  Speaker 10: and got it, and you know, I survived through the
• 9:35
  Speaker 10: fall and all that.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: You know, I was worried when he went up and
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: had to took that big falls like I was hoping
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: it didn't bobble. But he made a great catch. Travis
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: had a great day.
• 9:42
  Speaker 10: I mean, obviously the plays he made, the one on
• 9:44
  Speaker 10: the screen, the last touchdown, I mean that was unbelievable.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Was kind of down.
• 9:49
  Speaker 10: I thought it was a good screen ten yard game
• 9:51
  Speaker 10: and then he slips it out and and runs for fifty.
• 9:53
  Speaker 10: I mean that was that was special to watch him
• 9:55
  Speaker 10: do that. And guys played great. I mean guys all
• 9:58
  Speaker 10: over the board on offense, guys played all.
• 10:00
  Speaker 8: Drever, Are you playing a little bit more backyard football?
• 10:04
  Speaker 8: Does it feel like even the run play you kind
• 10:06
  Speaker 8: of created a little bit you created last week right
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: before the half, the two spin out plays, I mean,
• 10:11
  Speaker 8: do you feel like that's just always part of your
• 10:12
  Speaker 8: game or is it more confidence, playing free those kind
• 10:16
  Speaker 8: of things.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit of both, you know.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I think that it's a weapon for me.
• 10:19
  Speaker 10: It's being able to move and extend plays and get
• 10:22
  Speaker 10: out of the pocket and run or may a thrower
• 10:25
  Speaker 10: and extend the plays and still get the ball down field.
• 10:27
  Speaker 10: So I think it's it's easier to do the more
• 10:31
  Speaker 10: comfortable and confident you are in the system and just
• 10:34
  Speaker 10: trusting what you see, and I think you're seeing that
• 10:36
  Speaker 10: more and more the last few weeks and just playing
• 10:38
  Speaker 10: fast and that's always that you talk about the second
• 10:41
  Speaker 10: play like the first play doesn't always go great, but
• 10:44
  Speaker 10: that extending the play and the second play you can
• 10:47
  Speaker 10: still win. And we've had a lot of great examples
• 10:49
  Speaker 10: of that the last few weeks, and guys continuing to.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Work and get open and you.
• 10:53
  Speaker 10: Know, scramble, drill, there's a lot of that, and it
• 10:55
  Speaker 10: starts up front. Like I said, if you don't if
• 10:57
  Speaker 10: you don't protect and you don't have time, then it's
• 11:00
  Speaker 10: hard to extend plays and do that. But we've protected
• 11:02
