"Winning is not an easy thing to do. It actually can be quite challenging."

Doesn't matter who the opponent is, have to be good in all aspects to win a game.

"A lot of areas we were pretty good and a lot of areas where we weren't worth a darn so I've had plenty of work to do."

Can be mad about the defense, but you have to get over it and fix it. Offense has to go do it again.

Team is healthy top to bottom.

Really good teams share certain qualities: Most important one is self discipline. "Do what you're supposed to do, you do it right and you do it every single time."

Asked if he can elaborate on what he meant by "doing too much" on defense, he said "Not really." Basically said it's South Carolina week and they've moved on to that.

I asked if they have had this game circled and he said yes because it's the first conference game, but as soon as this one's over the next one is the biggest one.

SC did everything right s far as kicking game, turnover margin, etc, in week one.

On Muschamp: Knows him somewhat well based on similar defensive backgrounds, respects him.

Played 13 guys who signed in Feb: Important to get them out there in the environment for the rest of this season and years to come. Have to be aggressive on speeding up the learning curve. "It was far from being good enough the other day, but we'll get there with them."

Honestly very little that wasn't covered on the teleconference at this point, which I expect to be the case.

McCann's performance on kickoffs this week important because Deebo Samuel is very dangerous as a return man for South Carolina. "After this week I'll be a fan of his the rest of this year. I like the way he plays the game."
