You know, coach was talking about how for these for the players, coach was talking about how well that, you know, how well he thought that fall can went.
Now that you're in game week, is there a different mindset?
Is there like, what's kind of the vibe right now with you guys as you're actually preparing for an opponent?
One thing I'll definitely say is it feels really good to be able to, you know, hit somebody that's not my teammate.
And so, um, The, the vibe is really, is really great, you know, we're all excited to go and play somebody else and to, to show what we've been working on all fall camp, you know, versus somebody else and I feel like right now we have high energy, you know, we got a lot of juice.
We're excited to go play and we're just very blessed to be here.
And so that's just the way we're approaching it and practicing every opportunity we get.
Yeah, I think for me, um, Just, I think fall camp was just kind of like fine tuning and sharpening that sword versus now it's just kind of getting the nicks and crannies out of it, you know, I was preparing, you know, for, uh, UNC, but yeah, I think fall camp was great.
I'm a second coach on what he said, you know, it's been a, a grueling fall camp, you know, just physically.
Uh, the practice and mainly just the heat has been.
Should be hot in Texas, um.
But yeah, just I was getting accustomed to that and like not being able to push through that and I think we've started to get a lot more uh mentally and physically tough, you know, that's one thing he's mentioned a lot just throughout camp and then now us being able to come into this where like Angelo said, it kind of, you know, allows us to be able to take a step.
Like away from just the heat and getting, getting some different, you know, conditions and being able to still focus in that.
Um, yeah, I'm definitely grateful for it and, um, yeah, I think just as we're not preparing for this team, I don't think it's definitely, I don't think it's a switch that we're doing, but I think it's just about us being more intentional with.
UMC versus just going out and practicing every day, just banging against each other.
