  Speaker 1: Back with Jim Moore, the Yukon Football Coaches Show, Huskies
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: taking five and two record to Rice to play the
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Owls in Houston on Saturday afternoon. Jim, let's talk a
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: little bit about their personnel. Chase Chase Jenkins runs the
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: ball well and also throws well, sixty for eighty nine
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: four touchdowns only one interception. What's your thought on him
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: as in your first view of his mesla QB.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Well, he's dynamic athletically, and you know, this is a
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: team that believe that they have most rushing attempts in
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: the country behind the three Service Academy. So they've made
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: a concerted effort to run the ball, and they've got quarterbacks,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: including this guy. They can run it, but he can
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: also throw it, and he's done a good job of
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: protecting the football in the opportunities that he's had to
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: throw the football, not throwing interceptions, and also taking care
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: of it, you know when he is running it. So
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: I have a lot of respect for him. I think
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: he's a good player. It's an unorthodox type of offense
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: that we don't see much, that you don't see a
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: lot in college football, so it demands that we have
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: you know, a great look from our service team and
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: that we get a real good understanding of, you know,
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: the types of plays we're going to see on Saturday.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, their head coach, Scott abel is a first year guy,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: but it was at Washington and Lee and Davidson. He
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: won forty seven games, I think in seven years and
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: his team's among the rushing leaders every year. So that
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: brings us to the running back number ten, Quintin Jackson
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: five hundred and seven yards and there's another guy Dale
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Dale and Alexander as well as rush for almost four hundred.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Talk about running backs and in a running offense, they
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: know they're getting a lot of carries, and you'll hear
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: people say, well, the more they carry it, the better
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: they get. Is that a true statement?
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Well, I think that. I think that depends if Yeah,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: if they're getting better as they're canidate more than it's
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: a true statement. If they're carrying it more and they're
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: getting stuff, no, it's not a true statement, you know,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: but I think there is something to running Typically if
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: you're getting stuff, not going to get to keep running it,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: you know. So yeah, there's a there's some truth to that,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: but it's I don't think it's just as simple as that.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: I think there's some things to it.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so Quentin Jackson just looking at him and he
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: where's number ten for them? As you you analyze a
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: running back, what's the first thing you look at as
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: a defensive guy, which you are.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, the ability to avoid tackles, collision balance, Uh,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: you know, his ability to move latterly and then accelerate
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: vertically quickly, And those are things you see with this
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: guy like he you know, sometimes he looks like he
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: shot out of a cannon and you better be on
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: it and you run fit because if he gets to
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: the open field, it's going to be tough to get him.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: And uh, you know, he might not be the biggest
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: guy in the world, but he's got some juice to him.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: And uh, yeah, he's a he's a he's a good
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: football player.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: And the other thing about playing a team that rushes
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: the ball, if they're successful, they have the ball a lot.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: You don't have the ball as much. That can put
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: pressure on Ukon right if for Ice is able to
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: get their running game going and keeps the ball, is
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: that one of the keys do you think coming up
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: on Saturday?
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what it felt like that this past
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Saturday at BC. You know, they were kind of hogging
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: the ball. Fortunately, you know we got it, we were
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: able to score. But it does put some pressure on
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: your offense because you may have limited possessions. Now, this
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: isn't necessarily a team that's just gonna slow the game down,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: like maybe an Army Navy. I'll just say Army because
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: I've that's really the only team I played since I've
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: been here. But uh, you know, they're gonna they're not
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: gonna huddle. They're gonna get up on the line of
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: scrimmage and they're gonna go. They're gonna go at different tempos.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: So they're more like a traditional offense in that college
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: offense at least in today's game. Then then you would think.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: But yeah, if a team gets their neck up on
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: the run, you know, it does make it puts a
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: lot of pressure on everybody, all right, puts pressure on
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: you on third down, and if they're scoring touchdowns, it
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: puts pressure on your offense to match it quick because
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: you're not gonna get many possessions.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Yep. So assignment number one slow the running game down
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: at Rice on Saturday, coach appreciated so much good run
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: here one four in a row, but the only one
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: that matters, as you have said, is the next one.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Let's get the next one.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Yep, I agree, Thanks Mike.
