Fun to watch the 33 00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:39,439 Cougars get a big win. Sometimes I don't always get 34 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,480 to watch the game live because of my Pop Warner 35 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,359 games and so a lot of the times I'm. 36 00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: Watching the game, you know, replayed and people have already 37 00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:50,879 texted me and you know what, Hey, this is what 38 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,319 happened or this or that, you know, like I love 39 00:01:53,439 --> 00:01:54,159 just getting to sit. 40 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,519 Speaker 4: There with my boys and watch the game live and 41 00:01:56,599 --> 00:01:58,840 watching DYU have a comeback win on the road. 42 00:01:58,879 --> 00:02:01,079 Speaker 2: It was is It was a great way to finish 43 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:01,519 off the night. 44 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 3: It was awesome, John, What was the most rushing attempts 45 00:02:04,359 --> 00:02:08,639 you ever had in your BYU career in a game, 46 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:09,360 do you remember? 47 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 4: I don't know, man, you know that's kind of a 48 00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:15,800 I just know that in my first two years as 49 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,280 a starter, we struggled. 50 00:02:17,759 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: To run the football and so a lot. 51 00:02:19,719 --> 00:02:22,039 Speaker 4: Of the times, and truly it's kind of how I 52 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,840 find I found my way on the field as a 53 00:02:23,879 --> 00:02:27,120 freshman was because of my involvement in some of the 54 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,240 running game type stuff. We would run a lot of 55 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,840 gun speed option. We had some built in QB design 56 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,439 runs my freshman year where even the games I wasn't starting, 57 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:38,439 I would get put. 58 00:02:38,319 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: In the game to run some of these design runs. 59 00:02:40,319 --> 00:02:43,759 Speaker 4: So I don't know about how many times I ran it, 60 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,039 but I do know those first two years, just trying 61 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,800 to find ways to get yards, we would utilize the 62 00:02:49,879 --> 00:02:52,280 QB run game, and I mean, I don't know. 63 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 2: I definitely wasn't running at twenty two or however many 64 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,400 times Bear ran it. That's forting sure. 65 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 3: Twenty two times, I think it was. Through the third 66 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,719 quarter in this game, he had only ran the ball 67 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,919 seven times, and I tweeted out at the end of 68 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,759 the third quarter, I'm like, hey, Bear is averaging you know, 69 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,080 in the teams sometimes getting up into fifteen or so carries, 70 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,400 and I'm like, I feel like they're going to run 71 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,319 him a little bit, even though they're playing from behind 72 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,599 inclement weather on the road. Couple I iNTS. I was 73 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,520 like that they're going to start running him in some 74 00:03:24,599 --> 00:03:26,240 way shape before I didn't think it would be twenty 75 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:27,680 two though, in order to win the game. 76 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, No, And look, I don't think that that's the 77 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,919 game plan to say, hey, let's let's go run Bear 78 00:03:36,039 --> 00:03:38,960 close to twenty five times this game to kick off 79 00:03:39,319 --> 00:03:42,319 kind of some hard dig twelve games, right, that's a 80 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,520 lot of hits that a quarterback has taken in the 81 00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:45,000 run game. 82 00:03:45,439 --> 00:03:47,759 Speaker 2: But what I think happened is you have weather issues, 83 00:03:48,159 --> 00:03:48,319 you know. 84 00:03:48,479 --> 00:03:51,319 Speaker 4: Yes, Bear had a couple of turnovers, and I think 85 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,240 that the completion percentage, right, it was just I don't 86 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:55,960 want to call it an off night because he had 87 00:03:56,039 --> 00:03:58,719 some really really good throws, but it was for a 88 00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:03,400 young quarterback, probably the first time this year that things weren't. 89 00:04:03,199 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: Going pretty smooth. For the most part, BYU's passing attack 90 00:04:06,919 --> 00:04:09,759 has been able to, you know, keep Bear in a 91 00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:12,319 place where he's doing a lot of safe throws, a 92 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,800 lot of the throws are we know where we want 93 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,160 to go. If it's not there, we go to the 94 00:04:16,199 --> 00:04:17,680 outlet or it's quick screens. 95 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 4: That game on Saturday was actually requiring him to, I think, 96 00:04:21,879 --> 00:04:23,839 see a little bit more. If you go into the 97 00:04:23,959 --> 00:04:27,519 lineage of the defensive coordinator for that team and how 98 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,720 he came up, there's a lot of Rocky long New 99 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,360 Mexico San Diego State like that defense, like you. 100 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 2: Have to see a lot. 101 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 4: They're going to throw a lot of different looks at you, 102 00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:42,920 and at times you don't get the cleanest coverage details, 103 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,199 and that's that's by design. And so you know, it 104 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,720 showed a little bit a young quarterback kind of having 105 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,000 those those moments of some adversity. And I think what 106 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,519 Byu did was very smart. You are a I think 107 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,279 a top fifteen rushing attack in the country with LJ. 108 00:04:58,439 --> 00:05:01,240 Martin the offensive line. You have a quarterback that is 109 00:05:01,319 --> 00:05:04,120 really good carrying the football. How do we take some 110 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,480 of this pressure off him so that we're not throwing 111 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,160 it on his shoulders to try to come back and win. 112 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 2: We're not asking him to see the defense perfectly. 113 00:05:12,319 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 4: We're not asking him to have pinpoint perfect throws in 114 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:16,800 a difficult weather game. 115 00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:19,199 Speaker 2: Let's lean on one of our. 116 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,879 Speaker 4: Biggest strengths, and that's the run game, and it's Bar 117 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,079 Bachmeier light in games running the football. 118 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,639 Speaker 2: If you want to talk about where. 119 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 4: Bear is comfortable, and I know that Ben, you and 120 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,560 I have had this conversation before of just how he 121 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,600 played in high school. Bear did so many things in 122 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,680 high school, utilizing his legs late in games. At San Clemente, 123 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,800 he torched us twice in really close games, late in 124 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,639 games and even overtime with what he's able to do 125 00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:46,120 with his legs, and he did that on Saturday night 126 00:05:46,199 --> 00:05:48,560 for BYU, How would you. 127 00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 3: Describe the play calling in this game? Then let's evaluate 128 00:05:53,439 --> 00:05:55,240 a Rod what he was doing late in the game. 129 00:05:55,399 --> 00:05:58,079 He received a little bit of criticism for, you know, 130 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:03,759 time management, but it seemed like that kept Bear Bachmeier 131 00:06:03,959 --> 00:06:08,959 more so in a groove and maybe even allowed LJ 132 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,639 to get a reprieve. I mean, LJ was probably pretty 133 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,279 tired in this game, having to toot twenty five times, 134 00:06:15,319 --> 00:06:18,680 so going into a huddle not in hurry up. You 135 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:23,920 have a few issues with turnovers and inclement weather. It 136 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,920 seemed like a Rod was really calculated, very stoic, very calm, 137 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,680 and you saw that maybe with Bear and the play calling, 138 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:32,879 give me your evalt. 139 00:06:34,199 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 4: Well, I think when you look at some of the 140 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,759 plays that Bear you know, maybe slightly missed on or 141 00:06:40,399 --> 00:06:43,040 like one of the interceptions, you know, the one interception 142 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,800 that was you know, a snap that was you know, 143 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,519 through his hands if you want to call it botch, 144 00:06:47,639 --> 00:06:48,800 Like he's trying to make a play. 145 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,199 Speaker 2: He sees a guy that flashes hands. 146 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 4: We always tell receivers you have to be so careful 147 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,639 when you flash hands and you think you're so wide 148 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,680 open because you don't really really realize what coverages around you. 149 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,519 Sometimes as a quarterback, when a guy flash his hands, 150 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,959 you like, you see that, And so I think there 151 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,279 there was a moment where he was trying to you know, 152 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,759 he probably felt that the team was down and he's 153 00:07:12,759 --> 00:07:15,519 trying to make plays and then it ends up resulting 154 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,160 in a negative play. So I think it's smart if 155 00:07:18,199 --> 00:07:21,000 you can create a feeling in a game that even 156 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,879 though you're down, you don't feel rushed. That's going to 157 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,240 help a young quarterback when you're talking calmly through the headset. 158 00:07:27,639 --> 00:07:29,480 You know, it's crazy now in college football that they 159 00:07:29,519 --> 00:07:32,639 have headsets, you know, that's all pro from my era. 160 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,040 But when you can communicate clearly in a non rush tone, 161 00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:41,040 a non panic tone to a young player, that helps. 162 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,319 So what I would say to the criticism is, you know, 163 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,600 if there's criticism for why aren't they going faster, whatever 164 00:07:47,959 --> 00:07:51,120 seconds might have been saved, there's a benefit to the 165 00:07:51,319 --> 00:07:52,600 calmness of the approach. 166 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,639 Speaker 2: And yes, we can go back right now and say, hey, 167 00:07:55,759 --> 00:07:57,839 it all worked out. And the reason why that nobody's 168 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,839 being too critical is because it was a win. Well, 169 00:08:01,319 --> 00:08:02,120 what if you. 170 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,759 Speaker 4: Could get into the mind of the quarterback and he 171 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,879 is like man, that really helped me that it didn't 172 00:08:07,879 --> 00:08:10,720 feel rushed. The other thing is there was a drive 173 00:08:10,839 --> 00:08:13,240 where they ran every single play as a running play. 174 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,800 So if you want to keep the other team off 175 00:08:16,839 --> 00:08:19,759 the field, you know you're gonna go constant run plays, 176 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,879 and late in the game, you know you're gonna go run, 177 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,519 run heavy. Well, take the time to let your offensive 178 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,000 line have a few more breaths, take the time to 179 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,839 let your quarterback who's running the football get a little 180 00:08:31,879 --> 00:08:35,120 bit of recovery in the sports science of it. All right, 181 00:08:35,159 --> 00:08:37,279 we're gonna go with the one a run right here, 182 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,080 the clock's going to be going. Why not just hey, 183 00:08:41,279 --> 00:08:44,000 let's let's recover and then let's go attack. And so 184 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,320 I you know, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. 185 00:08:47,159 --> 00:08:49,240 BYU made the plays when they needed to. Yes, there 186 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,399 was some fortunate ones. You know, when Bear put the 187 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,440 ball on the ground there close to the goal line, 188 00:08:55,399 --> 00:08:57,720 BYU is fortunate. I don't know the lineman's name that 189 00:08:57,879 --> 00:09:00,480 jumped on it, but you know, you talk about big 190 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,440 time plays, that was a big time play for that 191 00:09:02,519 --> 00:09:05,399 guy to recover that football, you know, Will Farrin. I 192 00:09:05,519 --> 00:09:07,759 loved the way that he bounced back from the miss 193 00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:10,879 earlier in the game, you know, to go into overtime 194 00:09:11,399 --> 00:09:15,360 and in three plays. I think Dyu only lost yards 195 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,240 if my memory is right, I think it was like 196 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:19,679 was it fourth and thirteen? 197 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: Was that? 198 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:21,759 Speaker 2: Was that? What it was when he had to go 199 00:09:21,919 --> 00:09:24,960 kick the like forty four or forty five? Whatever it was? Yeah? 200 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 3: Man, that was that was kick. 201 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: Bro Oh it was a huge kick, guys. I mean, 202 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,679 I just like when I was watching that. 203 00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:34,919 Speaker 4: How many times do we watch games where when a 204 00:09:35,039 --> 00:09:37,759 team gets no positive yards and they put their kicker 205 00:09:37,919 --> 00:09:40,759 in a forty five yard field goal just to send 206 00:09:40,799 --> 00:09:43,519 it to another overtime is that kick missed and for 207 00:09:43,639 --> 00:09:45,279 a kicker to have missed. 208 00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:48,799 Speaker 2: An earlier one to come out and nail it that like, 209 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,440 that's huge. That was nails of that kid to do that. 210 00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:54,919 Speaker 4: So BYU found a way in a lot of different 211 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,480 ways to win a game differently than they had won 212 00:09:58,600 --> 00:09:59,759 all these previous games. 213 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,639 Speaker 2: To me, when you talk about special seasons. 214 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 4: When you talk about maintaining a undefeated record, there is 215 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,960 usually always a game or two where that stuff has 216 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:10,519 to happen. 217 00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:13,799 Speaker 2: A phase of the game is not as good as 218 00:10:13,879 --> 00:10:15,639 it has been, and the other. 219 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 4: Phases and other players step up to make plays to 220 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,960 quite honestly preserve save. 221 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,879 Speaker 2: It and find a way to win. And defensively as well. 222 00:10:23,399 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 4: I mean, so many good plays were made late in 223 00:10:25,759 --> 00:10:28,000 that game. And that's where I think if you want 224 00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:31,279 to look at a team's competitive nature, you know, their 225 00:10:31,399 --> 00:10:33,639 belief that late in games they can still win it. 226 00:10:33,759 --> 00:10:37,279 Speaker 2: I think Kolani has done a tremendous job of you. 227 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,159 Speaker 4: Know, and it's not a perfect record, but I would 228 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,039 say his teams as of late have done such a 229 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,519 good job of late in game as opposed to leaning 230 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,240 on panic or worry, they lean on competitiveness and belief. 231 00:10:49,799 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 2: And I think that's awesome. 232 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 3: John Beck, former b YU great talking some BYU football 233 00:10:54,879 --> 00:10:57,080 here on ESPN the Fan, brought to you by Odeon 234 00:10:57,159 --> 00:11:01,320 Men's Where, odeonmn'swear dot Com on BYU six and oh 235 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,360 back to back in back to back seasons. I mean 236 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,200 that that's that's a feat. Man. It's the first time 237 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,559 in BYU football history, and that includes the the golden 238 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,399 era of the late seventies and early eighties, mid eighties 239 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,279 where BYU seemed to be unstoppable. They had the best 240 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,240 LDS recruits coming to them, They were throwing the ball 241 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,799 at a high level, and they were in in the 242 00:11:24,879 --> 00:11:26,480 whack right like they were in the whack. 243 00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:27,919 Speaker 2: And that's what I was going to see, you know 244 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:28,200 what I mean? 245 00:11:28,919 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 4: Conference, Yeah, I would add this is also the strongest 246 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,519 conference and I know that, like you know, this year, 247 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,000 BYU hasn't seen yet the tougher teams in the Big Twelve. 248 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,919 But regardless whether it's your non conference schedule, conference schedule, 249 00:11:43,519 --> 00:11:46,320 to have a program with as many wins as BYU 250 00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:48,879 has had over the years and as many great Bowl seasons, 251 00:11:49,519 --> 00:11:51,759 and to say like BYU is for the first time 252 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,039 in history I started off six and oh there are 253 00:11:54,159 --> 00:11:58,519 big twelve wins in those twelve games that we're talking 254 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,000 about six and oh last year six, this year, I 255 00:12:01,039 --> 00:12:02,759 think it's an amazing accomplishment for. 256 00:12:02,799 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 2: A team that, you know what year is, this is 257 00:12:05,879 --> 00:12:07,720 this year three or two? 258 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,799 Speaker 4: This year two in the big twelve three three, Yeah, 259 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,000 you're three because Keiden had the first year, so year 260 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,279 three still kind of you're saying, this is new to 261 00:12:17,399 --> 00:12:18,320 the conference. 262 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 2: A little bit, and to have two six and those starts, 263 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,480 it's awesome. And to do it with the. 264 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,519 Speaker 4: Freshman quarterback, Like I know that its has hasn't been 265 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,519 the toughest schedule, but for a freshman quarterback to step 266 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,399 in that was not with the program until June, for 267 00:12:31,519 --> 00:12:33,879 the coaches to have confidence in him and for him 268 00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:36,960 to go out and execute the offense regardless of how 269 00:12:37,039 --> 00:12:39,519 it's shaped, regardless of how much has had to be 270 00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:41,600 placed on his shoulders in the past game. 271 00:12:41,759 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. 272 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,879 Speaker 4: He's executing the offense, he's distributing the ball, he's making 273 00:12:46,039 --> 00:12:49,919 very sound decisions. You know, this the first game that 274 00:12:50,039 --> 00:12:53,480 you saw some freshman this right, like putting the ball 275 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,679 on the ground in a run play, having a snap 276 00:12:55,799 --> 00:12:58,080 go through his hands and kind of scrambling and then 277 00:12:58,159 --> 00:13:00,759 forcing a ball like those are just football plays that 278 00:13:00,799 --> 00:13:01,919 happened to everybody, you know. 279 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,279 Speaker 2: I mean that's you know, but you tend to see 280 00:13:04,279 --> 00:13:05,600 it a little bit more with young guys. 281 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,759 Speaker 4: I still think it's awesome what BYU has been able 282 00:13:07,799 --> 00:13:11,399 to accomplish. And it's hats off to the program, to 283 00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:14,360 the recruiting, to the culture, to the players that are there, 284 00:13:15,039 --> 00:13:17,440 to you know, to Killanne as the head of all 285 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,919 of this. I mean, what an amazing era of BYU 286 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,200 football to be in the Big twelve. And I know 287 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,080 this sounds silly, but as a player that didn't get 288 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,159 to play in the Royal colors, I think it's also 289 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,639 awesome that all of this is happening. When BYU is 290 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,879 representing a jersey, a sticker of everything with the Royal 291 00:13:36,039 --> 00:13:39,320 I just to me, like my childhood memories of watching 292 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,559 BYU football through an Intenda that my dad had in 293 00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:46,480 the backyard and watching you know, those late eighties, early 294 00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:49,480 nineties games and mid nineties and those jerseys. 295 00:13:49,519 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: I mean, our generation of kids, this is what's cool 296 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:52,200 for me. 297 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 4: And I know I'm giving a really long answer when 298 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,960 I sit on the couch with my kids and we 299 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,960 watch awesome BYU comebacks. I can't help remember the amazing 300 00:14:01,039 --> 00:14:03,600 moments that I got to witness, and it's like the 301 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,399 same jerseys. It's just it's so cool to me, probably 302 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:08,960 because I never got to play in it, you know, 303 00:14:09,039 --> 00:14:12,440 and I played that era of like just some strange 304 00:14:12,519 --> 00:14:14,759 jerseys in a row. I think it's so cool the 305 00:14:14,879 --> 00:14:17,960 uniforms that, like do I used rocking right now as well? 306 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, we finally at least got the two stripes on 307 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,159 the shoulder pad and a little bit of tradition with 308 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,919 this wretch y on our helmets, right. 309 00:14:25,919 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, Bronco did an amazing job of bringing that back. 310 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 4: I still remember that press conference when they unveiled it, 311 00:14:31,159 --> 00:14:33,840 and I remember this feeling of like, dude, this is 312 00:14:33,919 --> 00:14:39,159 awesome because that's what I grew up watching. Like quite honestly, 313 00:14:39,279 --> 00:14:42,879 the quarterback that made me say that is absolutely what 314 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,600 I want to do for my entire life. 315 00:14:44,639 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: Was Ty Demmer, And it's just it's it's got something 316 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,559 special about it. John. 317 00:14:51,679 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 3: We were able to pull stats, Brad Hammer, Ronald the 318 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,639 three man weaver. You actually toaded the ball seventeen times 319 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,679 in two games in two thousand and four. Do you 320 00:15:02,759 --> 00:15:04,240 remember those games? By chance? 321 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna guess hold on seventeen times, hold on seconds? 322 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:13,159 Speaker 4: Well, well, don't I think that's sacks count as that too, 323 00:15:13,279 --> 00:15:16,840 don't they don't they count as that? Because like I think, 324 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,360 because like I don't even know if my career rushing 325 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,879 yard which is in the positive, because I think I 326 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,120 think that the sacks go against the rushing yard is 327 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:28,519 But if I had. 328 00:15:28,799 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 3: Yeah they do, yeah, yeah they do. 329 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 2: But yeah, but if I had to guess, I. 330 00:15:32,799 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 4: Think against Boise State, we were struggling to run the 331 00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:39,320 ball and I remember, uh because I had a turf 332 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,679 toe and I remember just running feeling like bro I 333 00:15:42,759 --> 00:15:45,159 am like beat up and I'm running the option is 334 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:45,600 that one of. 335 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 2: Them y Boise State, one of them state? And what 336 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,080 else on Boise State? 337 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 4: Uh, possibly New Mexico at the end of the year, 338 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,759 to try to get some wins. 339 00:15:55,879 --> 00:15:58,759 Speaker 2: Yea eligible seventeen man. 340 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,879 Speaker 3: That's a lot of hits, John, that's a lot of hits. 341 00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:06,440 Whether it's Sachs or rush speed hot, you know. 342 00:16:06,559 --> 00:16:09,559 Speaker 4: And I'm going to use this to talk about bear 343 00:16:09,639 --> 00:16:11,360 Bachmeer because I don't like talking. 344 00:16:11,159 --> 00:16:12,919 Speaker 2: About my own stuff on the radio. 345 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,279 Speaker 4: But like in like in those like in that era, 346 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,519 I remember feeling like I was not utilized as a 347 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,759 rushing quarterback in high school. I mean, we ran a 348 00:16:21,879 --> 00:16:24,600 little bit, but you wouldn't have ever been like, oh, 349 00:16:24,679 --> 00:16:26,600 that guy's gonna end up going and being a dull 350 00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:28,960 threat guy. But because I was such a late developer 351 00:16:29,039 --> 00:16:32,120 on my mission, all of a sudden strength and speed 352 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,519 and all of this kind of like came back. So 353 00:16:34,679 --> 00:16:37,679 like as a youth player, I ran a ton, but 354 00:16:37,879 --> 00:16:40,720 in high school I hardly did. And then it came 355 00:16:40,879 --> 00:16:43,159 back when I finally matured. And so that was, like 356 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,519 I said, that was my way to be on the field, 357 00:16:45,639 --> 00:16:48,639 was running around a ton, But I quite honestly did 358 00:16:48,759 --> 00:16:51,919 not have much experience in high school playing that style 359 00:16:51,919 --> 00:16:52,360 of football. 360 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: Now this is where it comes to Bear. Bear entered 361 00:16:55,279 --> 00:16:59,039 football as a running back. Bear all throughout high school 362 00:16:59,519 --> 00:17:03,200 was utili a ton. I bet every season except his 363 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,039 senior year. He was deemed up a little bit and 364 00:17:06,079 --> 00:17:07,400 he had to miss a bunch of games. 365 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 4: But I would almost bet that kid was running between 366 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,200 five hundred to seven hundred and fifty yards and probably 367 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,279 carrying the ball one hundred plus a season. 368 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 2: So you take somebody with that type of. 369 00:17:20,519 --> 00:17:25,279 Speaker 4: Running experience, you know there's a shiftiness. I'll use Zach Wilson. 370 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,559 Go watch Zach Wilsons high school highlights. He is running 371 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,400 and scrambling all over the place. Why was he a 372 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,079 good runner in scrambler in college because he had tons 373 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,079 of experience doing it. Now, go to the play caller. 374 00:17:37,759 --> 00:17:41,599 A Rod knows where Bear has tons of experience. The 375 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,200 way to help a guy handle pressure situations, put him 376 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,119 in situations he's been in before. It's like, you don't 377 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,759 ask the Air Force, Army or Navy quarterback to go 378 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,960 bring you back from a twenty one point deficit throw 379 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,000 in the football all the time. 380 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,039 Speaker 2: That's not where they have their experience. 381 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 4: And so I think there was a savviness and a 382 00:18:00,279 --> 00:18:03,440 smart moves by a Rod to recognize where his young 383 00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:06,400 quarterback was at and say here's where I know the 384 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:07,279 play calls. 385 00:18:07,039 --> 00:18:09,599 Speaker 2: Will help him and he's comfortable in that space. 386 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been it's been fun to watch the utilization 387 00:18:14,039 --> 00:18:18,559 of bear skill sets and and quite honestly, Bear enjoys that. 388 00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:21,400 I mean I think even on that fake sprint out 389 00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:23,799 keeper that he tucked and ran for a touch, I 390 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:28,400 mean like he loves that diving across the the the 391 00:18:28,519 --> 00:18:30,839 goal line like that. I mean, that gets that dude 392 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,759 hyped and elevated. And he's he's a pretty stoic young man. 393 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 2: So I don't think that was a fake rollout. I 394 00:18:38,039 --> 00:18:38,960 don't legitimate. 395 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,559 Speaker 4: That's a two yeah, that's a two way he So 396 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,359 what they do is they give you, like if you 397 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,799 can take that quick pick, that quick now pick, because 398 00:18:49,839 --> 00:18:52,440 what they're doing is they're sending one person along the 399 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,319 line of scrimmage that allows you to block everybody, so 400 00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:59,279 you can pick the defender over him if it's not there. 401 00:18:59,759 --> 00:19:02,680 They want the quarterback. Number one is the throw. Number 402 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,559 two is the quarterback run. I think why Bear cut 403 00:19:05,599 --> 00:19:09,079 it up so quick was because that outside edge got extended, 404 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,279 and so as soon as he saw that that pick 405 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,279 play wasn't there, he just put his foot in the ground. Again, 406 00:19:15,559 --> 00:19:19,160 going back to Bear's experience, I mean, I wish I 407 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,599 could shows like highlights of the kid like it happened 408 00:19:21,799 --> 00:19:25,119 so many times, so many times that he. 409 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:26,759 Speaker 2: Would do that, and so I think that's where he 410 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,200 knew right away the look. And here's the other thing. 411 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 4: Young quarterbacks when they enter college football and they're playing 412 00:19:34,599 --> 00:19:37,640 an offense that has so many things that are different 413 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,359 from what they've done, different reads, different progressions. A lot 414 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,599 of the times young quarterbacks are trying to gain the 415 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,319 experience of seeing what it looks like because I haven't 416 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,279 been in that situation before. So a young guy that 417 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,559 hasn't been in that situation before, he's actually going to 418 00:19:53,599 --> 00:19:55,519 put his foot in the ground a step later there. 419 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,839 Speaker 2: He's not going to see it as defined. 420 00:19:58,279 --> 00:20:00,839 Speaker 4: But somebody that's been in that situation maybe has had 421 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,440 similar plays in high school that are we're going. 422 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:04,839 Speaker 2: To give you this look and then you're going to 423 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:05,400 take off and go. 424 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 4: They actually play a step ahead because they've seen that 425 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,359 look so many times, they've repped it more. 426 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 2: And that's that's the cool part about experience. 427 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 4: Experience allows you, even when you're not faster speed wise, 428 00:20:19,519 --> 00:20:22,519 you can play the game a step faster because you've 429 00:20:22,599 --> 00:20:24,000 seen it, you've experienced it. 430 00:20:24,039 --> 00:20:24,759 Speaker 2: And you've felt it. 431 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 4: And that's why I think you know for him, he 432 00:20:27,599 --> 00:20:29,960 makes such a quick decision and that people thought like, oh, 433 00:20:30,039 --> 00:20:31,160 that must be designed. 434 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 2: No, no, it's still one to the pick play. Then 435 00:20:35,319 --> 00:20:36,640 he can quarterback run right there. 436 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 3: John Beck here on ESPN The Fan, John A. Couple 437 00:20:40,599 --> 00:20:44,119 last things before we let you go. This BYU football 438 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:49,880 team is winning with complimentary football offense, defense, and special teams. 439 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,400 And you alluded to that in some of your comments 440 00:20:52,559 --> 00:20:55,319 earlier in this interview, Like what stands out to you 441 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,720 about this team as a collective. You gave a lot 442 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,039 of credit to Kolani. Obviously you got to give credit 443 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,680 to all these coaches that are essentially governing their own team. 444 00:21:05,759 --> 00:21:08,759 Obviously A Rod on the offense, J Hill on the defense, 445 00:21:08,799 --> 00:21:11,079 and then k Pop on the special teams. But really 446 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,400 what stands out to you about this complimentary style of 447 00:21:14,519 --> 00:21:16,880 team over the last few years under Kloney? 448 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 4: Well, something that I really like is this football team 449 00:21:21,759 --> 00:21:26,440 had high hopes and expects because last year the belief 450 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,279 was this is the best team. Like, even though last 451 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:35,400 year's team had a great season, everybody kind of knew 452 00:21:35,599 --> 00:21:38,640 that this year's team was going to be the really 453 00:21:38,799 --> 00:21:42,640 special best team and they were excited for that. And 454 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,680 the reason I bring this point up is because there 455 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,559 are a lot of teams that enter a season with 456 00:21:47,839 --> 00:21:51,640 high hopes, with great expectations. You know, I have done 457 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,000 a lot of work with the Penn State program because 458 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,599 of their quarterback and I'm watching them go through something 459 00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:01,039 where they had playoff and national championship hope heading into 460 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,680 the season, and you look at the situation that they're 461 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,160 in now. The coach is no longer with the program. 462 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,680 They're three and three. Sometimes high hopes also bring a 463 00:22:10,839 --> 00:22:14,839 lot of expectation and pressure, And I think what's really 464 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,279 cool about this football team is look how many smiles 465 00:22:18,319 --> 00:22:21,480 are on their faces. Look at when a player makes 466 00:22:21,519 --> 00:22:24,759 a play, how many guys are running down the sideline 467 00:22:24,799 --> 00:22:25,640 pumped up for him. 468 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 2: I love the team that BYU is. I love the 469 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,160 joy that they feel. 470 00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:33,880 Speaker 4: I think it's an embodiment of who Kilanie Sataki is. 471 00:22:34,319 --> 00:22:37,000 You look at the fire of Kilani when he had 472 00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:39,759 a player that was being accused of targeting and you 473 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,839 saw him going after the refs. You have to have 474 00:22:43,039 --> 00:22:45,200 that type of fire and intensity to play that game 475 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,920 that has to be in the program carried by key players. 476 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,880 But you also have to have that team atmosphere, that chemistry, 477 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,319 that love of playing with your brother, that makes special 478 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,160 teams really come together and win games and critical moments 479 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,680 because everybody's playing for each other a certain way. And 480 00:23:03,799 --> 00:23:06,480 also I talked about it earlier with the competitiveness. Do 481 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,160 you enjoy the opportunity of coming from behind late in 482 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,640 a game. Does that level of competitiveness and grit it's 483 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:14,880 going to take to accomplish that? 484 00:23:15,319 --> 00:23:18,599 Speaker 2: Does that excite you? Or are you fearful of what 485 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,160 the outcome could be if you somehow lose and what 486 00:23:21,319 --> 00:23:22,680 that might mean for your season. 487 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 4: Everybody experiences pressure with high expectations. Who enjoys it and 488 00:23:27,759 --> 00:23:31,240 looks forward to the opportunities and who feels that pressure. 489 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 2: Mount week in and week out. 490 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,039 Speaker 4: I think this BYU football team loves to play, loves 491 00:23:35,079 --> 00:23:37,319 to play for each other, and has a belief that 492 00:23:37,599 --> 00:23:40,240 it's no matter what the situation is, we have a way. 493 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 2: That we can come back and battle and win. 494 00:23:42,079 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 4: And you know, when I talked about those players playing 495 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,519 for each other, because Preston Rex is the San Clementy 496 00:23:46,599 --> 00:23:48,960 kid and we love the Rex family, and you know, 497 00:23:49,599 --> 00:23:51,920 like anything those boys do, were following it. I loved 498 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,039 when I saw Preston Rex cat that catch that ball 499 00:23:54,079 --> 00:23:57,160 out into the flat the flat watch the sideline of 500 00:23:57,279 --> 00:24:00,319 people recognize how cool of a moment it was. 501 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,559 Speaker 2: That for prep was for Preston and the team. That 502 00:24:04,279 --> 00:24:07,480 is what creates that that that that bond between players 503 00:24:07,559 --> 00:24:11,880 that special teams. Special teams have special bonds between players, And. 504 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 4: I think that when I watch by U, I can 505 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:15,839 see that, and I think that's why games like this 506 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,319 game coming up, this Utah game, like this is what 507 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:19,039 it's going to take. 508 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 2: Utah's already what they're already like a two. 509 00:24:22,039 --> 00:24:23,839 Speaker 4: And a half three point favorite or something like that 510 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,640 in our in BYU's own stadium, right like this is 511 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,759 going to be a challenge, big new kickoff is going 512 00:24:29,839 --> 00:24:31,799 to be there, The atmosphere is going to be electric, 513 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,200 the fans are going to be going crazy, The Rock 514 00:24:34,319 --> 00:24:37,920 is going to be doing everything they do. Quite honestly, guys, 515 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,759 I'm doing everything I can to try to find a 516 00:24:39,839 --> 00:24:43,480 flight up there and crossing my fingers cross, crossing my 517 00:24:43,599 --> 00:24:45,559 fingers that my boys Pop Warner games get. 518 00:24:45,519 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 2: Done early and I can get up there, because I 519 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:48,240 think it is going to be. 520 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 4: An awesome environment. Does that environment excite you as a 521 00:24:51,279 --> 00:24:54,319 team or does that environment worry you as a team? 522 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:58,039 Of what if this season has a hiccup? And I 523 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,559 think Kialani's teams they choose the first one. I think 524 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,880 by nature the way that they're wired right now, they 525 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,079 love opportunities like this. 526 00:25:05,599 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 3: What's your message to the Cougar football team heading into 527 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,880 Rivalry week and the Holy War Week? 528 00:25:13,559 --> 00:25:17,079 Speaker 4: Just be who you are when a team already has momentum, 529 00:25:17,519 --> 00:25:21,480 which BYU does, just be who you are. I remember 530 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,359 it was my senior year and we had lost the 531 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,319 previous however many and I don't remember who was asking 532 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,319 me the interviews, but it was you know how you 533 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:30,960 kind of would sit on those chairs and you have 534 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,000 all the cameras around you and all the microphones that 535 00:25:33,039 --> 00:25:35,240 are holding up their little things back then, and they're 536 00:25:35,279 --> 00:25:37,519 asking me questions. And I just remember this feeling of 537 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,160 like you guys are talking to me as if this 538 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,599 is like somehow a different game, like the field stays 539 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,440 the same, the ball stays the same. 540 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 2: Like it's like it's a game that stays the same. 541 00:25:49,319 --> 00:25:51,359 We are going to be who we've been this entire year, 542 00:25:51,839 --> 00:25:52,400 and trust it. 543 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 4: And you know we and we were in a game 544 00:25:55,279 --> 00:25:57,279 when we were down late and had to have that 545 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,279 hope and that belief and all those things. And because 546 00:26:00,279 --> 00:26:02,640 of that, it's been a special game for us that 547 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,079 we're on that team. And I think by you guys, 548 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,799 like guys, you know, just be who you've been this 549 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,000 whole time. You guys have so many good things going 550 00:26:10,079 --> 00:26:12,519 for you right now. Keep playing for each other, keep 551 00:26:12,559 --> 00:26:16,640 the excitement going. You don't have to add pressure again. 552 00:26:16,799 --> 00:26:18,640 I hope I'm not answering too long, but I'll just 553 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,559 kind of give insight when I help players play for 554 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,519 big games, like it's a quarterback playing in the Michigan 555 00:26:24,559 --> 00:26:28,279 Ohio State game, it's a quarterback playing in a Rose Bowl, 556 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,000 it's a quarterback playing in a playoff college game. When 557 00:26:31,039 --> 00:26:34,119 I have conversations with them, we always talk about what 558 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,200 can we do to depressurize the situation. We hold the 559 00:26:38,279 --> 00:26:41,960 tools within ourselves as an individual and also collectively as 560 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,799 a team, to the way that we communicate with each other, 561 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,480 the way that we communicate on our own minds. How 562 00:26:47,599 --> 00:26:51,240 do we depressurize the situation so we can go perform 563 00:26:51,279 --> 00:26:55,720 at our best. Unfortunately, when pressure mounts, people can have 564 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,200 bad tactics. They don't use the right tools, and they 565 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,400 overpress size the situation and they don't realize they've done it. 566 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,039 And then so they try to turn to well, I'll 567 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,400 work really hard, I'll just I'll try to do this 568 00:27:07,559 --> 00:27:11,440 extra I'll and they're heaping so much pressure on themselves. 569 00:27:12,039 --> 00:27:15,400 What are your tactics to depressurize situations. 570 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,599 Speaker 2: And just be you. I love the thing of great players. 571 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,279 We don't remember them because they go over and beyond 572 00:27:23,759 --> 00:27:26,920 in those pressure moments. We remember them because they are 573 00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:30,559 who they are, who they've always been. In those pressure moments, 574 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,759 the pressure doesn't make them significantly drop. And I think 575 00:27:33,839 --> 00:27:35,920 that's the key. Just be you. Just go play this 576 00:27:36,519 --> 00:27:38,039 big time game and just be you. 577 00:27:39,039 --> 00:27:42,519 Speaker 3: For those that are listening that need some quarterback help, 578 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,559 especially in the season, get some film eval best way 579 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:49,920 to reach out to three DQB and maybe maximize their 580 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,640 football IQ their vision of the football three through maybe 581 00:27:54,759 --> 00:27:56,680 film evow through three DQB. 582 00:27:57,039 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, look, there's an info email.
