Offensively, we are ahead of where we've been compared to this point in the season the last few years. We've seen some real good things.
We've got some kids who are playing hard; we just need to get it done for 48 minutes. We stand toe-to-toe with anybody, there have just been a few breakdowns here and there that have hurt us.
There's no doubt about it, I truly feel you have to be a good defensive team to go anywhere. Defense is a lot of attitude and desire. You have to be disciplined and you have to be a real competitor to play defense. At this point in time, we have a way to go to get there.
You do have to give Hug the edge in our league. They won it last year and they have a lot of those guys back.
Special teams will be extremely important just as they always are. People tend to forget about how important the kicking game is. Reese has gotten better every week and D.J. looks like he will handle the job well. We've worked real, real hard.
Like a lot of places, we've had some good runs and some bad runs, and the last three years we've had some real good years. I hope we've established something here, where our kids expect to win and not just hope to win.
There are a lot of seniors there this season. Both guards and both tackles. We've seen some real good things from them so far.
I have a committee back there right now. Maybe eventually one of them will step up and get away from the others, but right now there isn't a whole lot separating them.
Pound for pound, Henry is probably one of the strongest guys on the team. We count on him being very physical and running that defense.
