  Speaker 1: AJ touchdown the first read on that, can you Yeah,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: I think so probably first read. Yeah, just I guess
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: on the first read. But yeah, just get open for
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: for you the the march. You have now your five
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: hundred yards, who's what any of those your goals coming in?
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: What are your personal goals? And yeah, I think you
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: know you always set goals for yourself, but you know,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: moving forward, I kind of just wanna set goals on
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the standard that I play to and playing to the
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: best of my ability and not really worry about yards
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: and touchdowns and all those things and all that will
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: happen when you play good football. How do you feel
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: toward that end? Uh? Do 'em? Well? Uh, I can
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: always improve, you know. That's what's great about this game
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: and my position in general. Like there's so many things
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: that I'm being asked to do and can do at
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: a high level. AJ, you had that big play in
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: the third and died that set of the first touchdown. Yeah,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: you said four plays with third diear longer that you
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: picked up today. Yeah, just how much does that elevate
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: an offense when you're putting those Yeah, you're finding ways
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: to move the change for sure. Just gotta find a
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: way to get it done. And I think a lot
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: of those plays too, is just falling forward for those
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: extra yards, catching in front of the sticks and making
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: a play with it and just gotta continue to do that.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: You really made the guy gets there on that one.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Did you did you gonna see him there initially and
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: kind of know you had to get there? Yeah. I
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: think my mind set is just find a way and
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: get as much as I can, whether that's running through
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: somebody or around someone. I'm just gonna try and get
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: as many yards as possible. I think that was the
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: fourth time this season you've got an opponent to who
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: taught you the heart count? How did? How does that become?
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: So I'm a vocal person. I I can have a
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: loud voice, so that might help a little bit. And uh,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: the push that our O line gets, I mean, people
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: know that it's coming and it's tough to stop. So
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I think that helps too. Did you have to work
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: on that? I think the cadence a little bit. I
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: I grew up playing quarterback. I was pretty lousy at quarterback,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: and I canna lie. My team went oh to nine
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: freshman year, but made the final four. My senior year,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I wasn't at quarterback, but something that I've done before
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: and something I gotta I've worked on, so you know,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: it's really a simple play. At the end of the day,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: When did you stop my junior year of high school
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: to get to two straight games with the run game
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: you've had? Yeah, just how big is that for you
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: guys going into this, Yeah, it's huge. Uh, you gotta
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: be able to run the ball. A run game travels
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: and uh yeah, we gotta. We gotta keep toting the
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: rock and shout out to the backs for you know,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: hitting it and uh the O line and uh that's
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the expectation, Like we gotta run the rock. What's what's
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: the moot in the locker room right now? I mean
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: with you know, one game, when do you get the
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: number one seed or all that. Yeah, just turn the page,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: go go get another win and keep it rolling. But
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: you know, vibes are high. You know we love winning
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: around here. So ready for a battle next week. Good,
• 2:55
