Demond Williams Jr. after Penn State Loss
Nov 8, 2026
Just understanding that we're down big, obviously,
and we've had situations where we've been down big before,
and it was on us to either lay down or respond to adversity,
and we responded well, and just a few plays away from getting the win.
How would you kind of describe how you tried to go after them
in the first half? What did you guys see? Obviously, they've
been really tough against the pass this year. You were running it okay.
Yeah, we're just trying to take advantage of our one-on-ones.
Just trying to give guys chances on the outside on the perimeter and
there's a 50-50 ball.
So sometimes they go your way, sometimes they don't.
And we've got to continue to trust each other,
trust in the process of getting better every game.
Did you think that the timing was just off on those plays or
was it something more than that?
No, not necessarily.
I just think that me and the receivers
have to continue to get on the same page
with those vertical routes, when to get your eyes around,
when to get vertical for the ball or let it drop in, things like that.
But continuing to just...
Work harder every day to figure out ways
to get better at those situations.
Early on, did you have trouble just finding a groove,
throwing the football early on in the first half?
No, not necessarily.
I just think that we were taking
those risks as far as taking the one on one
chances and trying to let my receivers go compete.
So we'll live with that any day, just giving our guys a chance.
How did you physically feel out there today,
taking some hits in the red zone?
Yeah, I felt pretty good for the most part.
I think it's still a process to get in the 100%.
But at the end of the day, we have to find ways to win.
