[Music] start um just for you I mean what are your emotions after this game I mean obviously you want to win the game so uh I'm a bit tore up right now but um time waits for nobody um we got to go get it next week nobody's going to feel sorry for us and just focus on next week after the fumble um what what was the response on the sideline like what were people telling you kind of before you went back out it's good um everybody's riding with me they believe in me um and you know good or bad what happens we always just say good so um and that and you know you just got to flush it playing quarterback it's always about the next play J just on that OPI what did you kind of see in the explanation I mean I see was it on Dante yeah I mean not much I can do there I mean they call it they call it it's tough Daren the fact that you had SE support from the Seline and from your head coach what does it mean to you know help you and encourage you to go back out after a couple of mistakes he told me I can only make one mistake and that's not one mistake so uh kind of little joke about it um to flush it and get uh focused on the next drive but it means a lot when your head coach believes in you um and and everybody believes in you so um and that helps you know going forward did you like your response to that to to like after that like being able to come out lead that long drive like just kind of like being able to flush that yeah I feel like I'm always about the next play I don't care what happened play behind um cuz you focus on the play behind it's just going to bring you know bad energy and um I feel like we I mean we had a good drive but I mean obviously it hurts to not uh get the job done so obviously winning is what matters but you you threw for over 300 yards today against the number 16 team in the country and your second ever game in in college can you just just kind of put him into perspective the way you feel like you're playing right now um that's pretty cool but um just hurts losing I hate losing so just really focused on next week proud of the way we played proud of the way we fought but um we got a big game next week that we're focused on you weren't in a great position from the 17 yd line but what was your read on the interception in in the end zone um I was going we had to stop and go from the boundary and then across um they played cover two I didn't see that safety back there and I was just trying to give my my guy a chance really we got six seconds left but um DB made a great play ask coach this but you same question for you what did you kind of learn about yourself today uh that I can play um I'm I'm confident um um super proud of our guys and the way that we played as well but um can't focus on you know what happened out there obviously hurts losing but um but I feel like I belong here how much did makai's um ability to pick up first downs get big yards kind of help with like gaining that momentum in the first half yeah he's a great player um especially getting the ball in his hands he can make a few guys miss and get vertical so it definitely helps you know having a younger quarterback and then you got somebody like Mai who can you know get loose on at any moment really so um I'm really proud of the way he played today and you spoke to it a little bit but just the attitude and the message going into next week yeah just like AB said it was good um nobody's going to feel sorry for us um we got we got we got a big opponent next week so can't really focus on the pass like I I said so just really focus on next week [Music]
