At quarterbacks, I'm just curious, against Ashton,
what was maybe different about him that made it so difficult
to bring him down on a few plays?
You know, it was a rival game.
They just came out with fire.
Everything was intense.
It was people playing with their heart that game.
All it was.
All right, next up, we'll go to Alex.
Hey, Armando, how are you?
How you doing?
I'm doing really well.
So going up against a Pittsburgh offense
that likes to run the football,
I know Coach Heatherman and your unit takes a lot of pride.
in trying to shut them down and make the opponent one-dimensional.
Can you talk about their offense and what you see?
Watching their offense, they have two good quarterbacks
that's good at both running and pass.
We're just, like, getting ready for everything
because they got a good team, got good O-line, physical team,
and we know they're coming down here to play.
All right, next up we'll go to Adam.
Hey, Armando, thanks for taking the time today.
I know, I remember earlier in the year you got a little banged up.
I think it was the Wake Forest game
kind of in and out for a little bit.
I just wanted to check in and see, you know,
do you feel like you're back 100%?
Just how are things going in that regard for you?
I'm good.
Nothing's going to stop.
I'm good.
Gotcha.
Well, a lot of guys on the team have been banged up.
Some guys have missed time.
What does it say about the team, just, you know,
like the team's resilience, you know, your teammates' resilience,
the fact that, you know, guys are, you know,
working hard to get back when they have to miss time.
They work hard to get back.
A lot of guys have been in and out of games
and they fight to stay in games.
What does that say about you guys and your resilience?
Well, something that I take from my coaches,
what they tell us is work don't care about who do it.
You just want to get done.
So I feel like the team kind of have that in the back of their head.
So we just come out and fight regardless
of the adversities we go through.
