What Scott Satterfield, Bryan Brown, Louisville Players Said After 20-14 Win at UCF

ORLANDO, Fla. – Coming off of their frustrating season-opener, Louisville had the ability to bounce right back, rallying to remove UCF. Here’s what head coach Scott Satterfield, protective planner Bryan Brown, running back Tiyon Evans, Quarterback Malik Cunningham and security Kenderick Duncan needed to state following the win: Head Coach Scott SatterfieldFirst of all, simply wish to provide some congratulations to Central Florida. Coach (Gus) Malzahn, I believe he does a fantastic task with their program. Their kids play hard, they’re a gifted football group, they play quick. My 2nd time breaking them, 2 actually, actually extremely objected to video games. They do a terrific task. Having stated that, I likewise can’t be anymore pleased with our gamers. Coming off of an incredibly frustrating week recently, on a brief week, back-to-back roadway video games, you get back at 4 in the early morning on Saturday night and need to take a trip on Thursday, down here to Central Florida – another hostile environment. For them to come back and to play the method they did – a great deal of unfavorable talk recently. About our offense, about our defense. For them to fight back and to come up strong versus a truly great football group in Central Florida, and to win it the method we did, I believed it was excellent. It was difficult, it was difficult battled, our defense played exceptional. Half was a fight back and forth. I believe the distinction in the very first half, we had the turnover (Tiyon Evans’ fumble) when we in fact were having some great plays and some momentum. We’re down 14 -7, then defensively, the 2nd half was simply lights out. We had the ability to move the ball enough and rating, and happy with JT (James Turner) for tearing down the 2 basket there at the end, too. It came down to our defense. We went all out on 4th down since I actually thought in our defense. We get an initially down right there, the ballgame is over. We didn’t, and after that defense held them out. That’s an excellent win. It’s a fantastic group win. Eagerly anticipating this turning up video game next week versus Florida State. (On what this win indicated with the focus on ending up video games) That’s what I enjoyed about the locker space. I informed the men that “my why,” why I coach, is to see the happiness on their face. Due to the fact that they put a lot effort in this offseason. We discussed all of it the time, and we did such a bad task in the very first video game. For them to hear all the bad talk all week long, it would have been actually simple to lay it down. They were really focused and intent on coming down here and playing an actually great video game, and they did that. The method we completed it in the 4th quarter was significant. It’s actually a great deal of men, and there’s not simply one man on defense. It was a synergy on defense. We’re getting pressures on the quarterback, we’re playing tight man-to-man protection, it was all the people. That’s what you wish to see: a great group, protective win. (On the defense) Well today, we dealt with a lot much better. They’re talented. (John Rhys) Plumlee, he’s as quick as people you’ll dip into quarterback. We understood that things were going to go through him. Number 4 (Ryan O’Keefe) is an exceptional receiver, they attempted to do things to call him up. Number no (Johnny Richardson), he’s really gifted. We’re playing male protection, and they struck a couple of balls on us far as down the sideline. I believed they kept attempting to attack, out people had a couple P.I.’s, however we simply hung in there and kept fighting. Since we understood gradually, that we need to win that fight. (Jarvis) Brownlee had an astounding choice in the end endzone, appeared like to me that he simply type of took it from the receiver when the receiver increased. That was an extraordinary play. Simply an excellent synergy there to get that when (On what was various about Malik Cunningham tonight) I’ll take the blame on that. I believe the very first video game, we didn’t let him play his video game enough, and I believe tonight we did. Return and you view the (movie from) Central Florida in 2015, I believe he had 99 backyards hurrying in 2015 versus them, and played actually well. Today we resembled, “Malik, we’re gon na need to ride you,” and he stated, “coach, that’s what I desire.” There was a lot for him to place on his shoulders, and whenever he pertained to the sideline, he resembled, “Coach, I got it. Let’s go.” He runs hard, he played hard. He was a distinction as far as simply the hard, gritty backyards that we required to get. An incredible run on the long goal run down the left sideline. He did get an excellent block by T-Huddy (Tyler Hudson) on the sideline over there that, clearly, made him enter completion zone. That was among the huge distinctions in the video game. (On if there was anything he saw on tape that made them comfy with assaulting Plumlee) The idea was to attempt to get him prior to and gets going, since if he goes out in area, he’s gon na be difficult to take on. We returned and I took a look at the video game when he began at Ole Miss versus LSU, and hurried for 220 lawns versus those people, who were respectable on defense that year at LSU. As soon as he goes out in area, he’s tough to deal with. We were simply attempting to keep him hemmed up therein. Early on, he had a number of essential draws and he got in some area there, and got some huge runs. 2nd quarter, we began to state, “Listen, let’s attack the edges. Let’s keep them sort of hemmed in right there, and now simply assemble on him.” Our people did a great task. I likewise believed the tight protection, he needed to hold it a bit longer. On some tight protection, we had the ability to get house and get some pressure on him. I believe that’s the distinction. (On why the taking on was so various) Scroll to Continue To me, it was actually a state of mind. You needed to make your mind as much as go take that additional action and finish up. Recently, we were one action short from arriving. We’re lunging and we’re tossing a shoulder. Take the additional action, get your arms around, and if you miss out on that take on, then we need to cope with it. The next person will come and attempt to make it. I believe that was the distinction, and simply the state of mind of “hi, I’ll take another action and attempt to get my arms twisted around.” We missed out on a couple of tonight, however absolutely nothing like recently. (On the protective changes after UCF’s very first 2 drives) Early on in the video game, we were bringing more pressure up through the middle, and after that Plumlee and the people were getting more outdoors. We made a change to bring a bit more – let’s attempt the edge, let’s see if we can type of head out here, and hem them within. That appeared to work a lot much better. The huge part of their video game is the zone checked out with the running back, and we were assaulting that edge on that side, and attempting to take the ball out of the quarterback’s hands. I believe that made a huge distinction. They struck a couple of screens early in the video game on us, the fast tosses, that’s why we needed to tighten up the protection out there. Simply attempt to take a few of those fast discards. (On how huge the win is) It ‘d be tough for me simply to describe how huge it is. Backs versus the wall, you lost a conference video game the very first week on the roadway, did not play well, a great deal of anticipation being available in. A great deal of self-confidence from our people entering the season, and it’s actually simple to come down on yourself. It’s genuine east to simply sort of sympathize with yourself, not have a great week which kind of thing, which nobody did. I believe they were 31 -2 in the last 6 years, someplace around there. They do not lose here. To come down here and to be able to do that – this group simply came off a Florida win in a championship game. This is an excellent football group with a great deal of people back. It’s a substantial win. It’s a big win. You enter into the Florida State video game, you’re resting on 0-2, that’s not going to be proficient at all. To have some self-confidence to understand, “hello, we played well, in the method we desired, and now we got ta go have an excellent week.” The advantage is, we get a regular week despite the fact that it’s Friday night. We get a regular 7 day turn-around, not a brief week, it’s gon na be huge for us. And we get to remain at house and get to play in Cardinal Stadium. That’s another substantial news thing for us. (On the ratio of yardage to points in the video game) I imply, certainly you wish to score more points. I believe Syracuse defensively did a terrific task recently. I believed they did an excellent task of holding us out of completion zone. We got in the red zone, didn’t rating. We missed out on a basket tonight down there. The name of the video game is to score points. We got to discover methods to get in completion zone. You do not wish to go for basket. Once again, I believe this is a great defense. We did move the ball much better this evening. I do not understand what our backyards was, however we moved the ball much better. We got some other men included in the offense. That’s what we got to keep doing, and ideally we can discover a method the endzone.
