![]() Rose after that missed assignment and if it was handled differently than in past years: “Yeah, you know what. They didn’t get a lot of opportunities, but they know what they’ve got to do especially this week. On assessing receivers on Saturday: “We’ve got to do a little bit better on press. I think we’ll definitely - we have to, we have to improve.” You start to, hopefully, you’re getting better every week when you get into those situations. Partly there’s a little cliché to that, but I do think you do. The speed of the game on Saturdaywhen you’re going through camp, it just changes. There’s a lot of truth when you have new quarterbacks, I think when you have young guys. On if it’s a cliché about people getting better from week one to week two: “I think there’s a lot of truth. ![]() I think they’ll get better from week one to week two. Game gets fast out there when you get into the lights. I think that’s the best thing he settled down. On if Terry Wilson settled down when he went in second time: “He did. ![]() Defense played great, we played sloppy at times and we’ve got to get it cleaned up.” You turn the ball over four times there and it won’t be good. On if turnovers can really snowball in an environment like Florida: “Yeah, won’t be good. Had a chance to help us win more games this year, this last year.” We just kind of showed them how when we talked about it at the beginning of the year by doing the right things and taking care of the ball what you can achieve.

That’s why we went from 130 thto 30 th and we were a top-10 for a long time. On if they can do anything extra in practice: “Every second of the day since 132 nd in the country a year and half ago has been that. That was not a good start to be in the top 10, but we’ve got a lot of games left, so we’ve got to take care of the rock.” We ended up going from 130 th to 30 th, and this year our goal was to be in the top 10. I mean, we went from 130 th in the country to 30 th (in turnovers) and we were top-10 most of the year until that Tennessee game last year when we turned it over four times. We were still up, so there was some positive from it. And they came back and after Gunnar came in in the two-minute drive, scored. “But on the positive side of that, we did (win). Can’t go anywhere and turn the ball over like that and expect to win. If you’re going to throw those, back or the corner of the end zone. Throwing the ball up in the air for grabs.
