What did you like from tonight? And what are you guys gonna try and, and clean up over the course of two weeks before you get back into the Big 12 battles, Cannon?

Yeah, I think tonight we played a pretty good game just all around.

Uh, complimentary football, you know.

Uh, us defense, we were able to get a couple three and outs and some fourth down stops, and then the offense was able to take over from there, just getting on the field and being able to move the ball like they did, run it down the throats, throw it wherever they wanted.

And so, uh, it was definitely a good game.

We can clean a ton of stuff up.

I think, uh, just when backups get in and things, we need to be more sound and be able to keep the standard there and keep it high, and, uh, but we can clean it up and get ready for next week.

All right, how do you feel the defense is coming along in, in three games under Coach Poppinga? Talking about the, the ones primarily, how do, how are you guys working as a cohesive unit at this point?

They started talking about you being a punt returner, kick returner, and, you know, just being on special teams.

Yeah, it starts back in high school.

I never came off the field in high school.

I played both ways.

I played on every special teams and I was a big return specialist then.

And so I knew just coming into BYU as they recruited me, they recruited me as an athlete and they told me right from the get go that the return game would be a big part of the role I would play here.

And so just always had that confidence to know that wherever the ball was, whenever it was coming my way, that I knew that I could make a play.

tell me first of all what is the difference between a great db and and just your average dbs out there what will make these guys special and you

What are you looking at? What are you feeling? What are you seeing? What are you hearing?

Yeah, I mean, it's definitely a feel.

You're not looking at the guys running at you.

All you're focusing on is the ball the whole entire time.

And so it's kind of how long has it been in the air? How far is it getting? Do I have time? You kind of can get a feel of where the gunners are at, where your cover guys are.

And so it's right when you catch the ball, you know that you've got to make a move instantly.

So it's kind of just you feel it coming from the right.

I read 10-8 in high school in the 100th.
