 We're here with coach Ed Hotto after the 26-23 victory against Albright and Coach I mean when you look at some of the stats I mean when each team has over 300 yards total offense in a game You wouldn't think that it would be a defensive struggle But I mean your your defense not just in that final drive But all game really played outstanding today against a team that had a great quarterback and a great set of receivers as well Yeah, you know hats off to Albright You know we look at the history between these two programs and five of the last six games have come down to one possession So we didn't expect anything different today. We expected it to be the same way and it was and You know our kids, you know a little bit of adversity last week losing late You know came out really worked hard this week And I'm really really proud of the effort that we put in today and you know These games can go so quickly in the other direction But you know fortunately today we were able to affect the outcome in our favor one And when you look at a 26-23 game you look at some of the stats You wouldn't think that there wasn't any scoring until the second quarter and then when you had it It was in the form of safety. Yeah, that's always the way it is. You know, it's just You know you look at last week's numbers, too, you know and to only put up 27th is the same kind of thing. So It is a surprise Statistically but looking at in the history between both teams not not a big surprise really if you know in the story And you guys Coming into this at the final three of your four games here at home Is that important going down the stretch as you guys try to make that push for the postseason? Absolutely It's everything, you know, you look at you know, if you start to break the schedule down Last week's opponent this week's opponent next week's opponent are all coming out of their by weeks You know granted. Yeah, we were coming out of ours last week as well But you know, that's a tough thing to have to overcome and you know Fortunately, we're able to play here in front of our fans and you know and enjoy, you know Friday night in our own Bed so it makes it you know makes it a little bit better And you know our guys get extra juice to play in front of the home crowd, which is fun I mean you talk about that juice I mean the the fans were going crazy it looked like the sideline was was just madness I mean they kept the intensity up throughout the entire game and and after that interception that ended. I mean what? What was going on down here? Yeah, you know The cool thing about our program is the kids that are playing are so supportive of the kids that are playing And you know, we've had to coach them on that a little bit You know Which what is your role if you're not actually in the game and it's to bring that juice and bring some of that Momentum and as our team matures and grows We're starting to see more and more of that and that as a coach is it's really really exciting for me to watch because they're listening to What we're telling them, you know, they're growing up right in front of us and It's pandemonium when those guys are all jumping and waving towels It's really really exciting and it really helps to sustain momentum We've been such a momentum team this fall that you know We've been it we've had to manufacture our own momentum to a degree and so far it's it's going very well All right, who do we have here? This is my youngest son Tucker hoddle. How you doing Tucker? Good. Is that a good game today? Yes. Yeah, are we gonna get wins the rest of the year on out? Yeah, all right now it doesn't get any easier next week with Weidner. No, no, there's there's no easy games in the Mac I mean, you know, you look at the history of the conference and you know It's so easy to fall into the looking at scores and who did this to who and it really is in every week league And and things can change on the dime and you know, our guys are like, well, we're not going to play I'm like, well, you don't know that yet You know, you've got to be able to go out and play at a very high level every Saturday And you know, you really don't know what's happening till the season's over. Excellent. Well, coach Thanks for joining us and we'll we'll see you next week against Weidner. Thank you very much
