I'm just curious, after all the winning, 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 2: how you're sort of processing this and dealing with what's 6 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,080 Speaker 2: obviously been a very frustrating season at this point. 7 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you. 8 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 3: Want to keep your focus, you know, week two week and. 9 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: You know the you know, depend say look at it, 10 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,279 Speaker 1: but there's there's so. 11 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 3: Much to do to just get ready for the next team, 12 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 3: and there's a lot of work to be put in that. 13 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: Really, it doesn't do any good to dwell on, you know, any. 14 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 3: Whatever negatives or anything that could hold you back from 15 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 3: preparing yourself and your players and the defense in our case, 16 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 3: to be ready to go for the next game. So 17 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 3: I think, you know, I think guys on the team 18 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 3: are doing good job being prepared and ready to go. 19 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 3: And you know, our job is to get him to 20 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 3: that point.

Usually you let 27 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 2: up ten points in the game. You've done it two 28 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 2: weeks in a row, you generally win those games in 29 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: the league.
