That will be the most important thing with this team and how we develop. We had some guys that did some really good things in this game and played really well, not just the guys that were the players of the week. We talked about some of those things after the game. We also have areas of the team that we need to focus on improving. That's the most critical thing that we do moving forward. Some of the outstanding players on offense, players of the week Michael Williams and T.J. Yeldon, who was also the Co-Freshman of the Week in the SEC. Defensively, Dee Milliner and C.J. Mosley. Dee won a couple of national awards and the SEC Defensive Player of the Week. ...

Question:  It sounds presumptive to ask, but is there a plan this week to maybe get Phillip [Ely] some more snaps:  
:o
CNS:  "That is presumptive, and it's typical of what you all would think and what our fans would think - that because these guys play in the Sun Belt they are not very good. It really is presumptive and so presumptive that I am not going to answer it.
