  • Going to the Swamp is always a challenge and a difficult place to play.
  • Said the fans showed out and created a great atmosphere this weekend, and he's sorry they couldn't perform for them.
  • Says now, the most important thing is playing consistent football. Playoffs are out of the picture, so everything now is about them and how they play LSU football.
  • You have to prepare for DJ Lagway and Graham Mertz because of Lagway's injury concerns.
  • Says he doesn't evaluate coordinators during the season. Says everyone gets to second guess a play call after the game. What he wants to see from Sloan the rest of the year is for him to create more opportunities in the run game.
  • He was asked if he thinks things are fixable this year or if it might take an offseason of bringing in transfers and new coaches. Thinks there's still a chance for this team to get better and fix things, but the players and coaches need to find ways to be more successful.
  • Thought Paul Mubenga did some good things against Alabama. For a first time starter, they were pleased with him.
  • Garrett Dellinger will workout today and they'll get a better idea of where he's at after that.
  • He's not happy about what happened on Saturday, but still believes in this program and his ability to winning here, especially because of the recruiting classes they have coming in.
  • Says nothing was wrong with Caden Durham on Saturday despite him only playing 20 snaps.
  • Would've liked to see more outside zone runs, but it was hard to be consistent with the run game because of the score.
  • Says Florida has had a ton of injuries and has done well to weather that storm.
  • Says from a defensive standpoint, it's all hands on deck. If they feel there's a young player who can come in and help them, they're not worried about burning a redshirt. They will play.
  • Shelton Sampson is trying to fight his way into a lineup that is full of talent at WR. He's played 100+ snaps this year, but still doesn't have a catch, which is pretty weird.
