Their backs gained a lot of yards rushing and that No. 42 (Graves) is a really good player. They use their versatility very well.

If you had a son, you would want him to grow up to be like Matt. He was a super kid, upbeat, always joking and laughing and having a good time.

They run the option and throw the ball. They run the option every which way you can run the option. It is really hard to get a key on because the different ways they run that. We haven't seen that, but they haven't seen the Wing-T either.

The most important games we are going to play are the conference games. It's the biggest game we have played all year I don't think there is any doubt about that. It's the biggest game for me all year. The biggest game for the kids has been Reidsville. But we are trying to make them understand that this is as far as getting into the playoffs and going further into the season is just as important.

We have a base defense, but you can scheme offenses out of. We have different reads when we face different offenses. What you're seeing is 11 kids that can and will run to the football. We are very pleased with that. That is what this defense is built around which is speed.

We've been out of position on a lot of those plays. We have been working on that. It concerns me, but it hasn't hurt us in the final outcome. We have some good athletes to make up for those type of plays and these guys will hit you.

Both schools are only a few miles apart and I think it is more about the people in the community being able to say for a whole year that we beat you. It is a pride factor involved and that's what makes a rivalry. It is not necessarily the players and coaches, but the community because they are so close together.

We are about 40 percent of what we can be. We are not nearly as good as we can be.

Those kids will always remember that game, even I am going to always remember it, but it is still just one game. I heard one player tell the team not to get a big head. We just have to stay focused like we have been.

I was just trying to get on the board with this offense. They shut us down pretty much in the first half, but right before halftime we were able to get outside on the quick pitch and coordinated that into the second half.
