We're home after a long road trip, but it seems like forever the Mustangs are home for homecoming noon start on Saturday against Miss Accordia here with head coach Ed Hoddle after the back to back trips to Reading and of course culminating with a victory over Alvernia last week. Coach, your thoughts on the game last week? It was wet and cold, that's for sure. Glad to be home. I thought it was a much more complete game last Saturday than we've played all year so you know it's in the case that we're playing starting to play our best football which is exciting and you're looking forward to today and you talk about playing your best football of course the last three games Weidner, Albright and then Alvernia you've scored a lot of points offensively and defensively you know you've given up a little amount of points you talk about the complete game of football what's been the keys we'll start offensively what's been the key offensively for you guys over the last couple weeks well our ability to run the football you know the five guys up front in the tight end and you know Coach Hoy put us in good positions you know the ability to run the ball and the ability to stop the runner key to success in our conference for sure and defensively I just looked at the numbers your third in the conference defensively in total defense obviously you know against Alvernia it was just one big play that they scored on and you've given up a lot of points to Weidner and a little amount of points to Albright what's been the key defensively well I think it's you know catching up with the scheme we talked about a couple weeks ago you know new coordinator new scheme guys getting comfortable in their roles you know I think we're tackling better I think we're taking in-game adjustments better so I think it's you know it's been a work in progress and we're starting to see some of the rewards what's what can we expect that is recorded today physical football team John and I worked their head coach and I worked together back in the guy you that days and he's familiar with me and I'm familiar with him and you know we cut from the same cloth we were on the ball want to be physical want to be aggressive on defense so it should be good and now having the next three or four at home and more importantly you're getting into the meat of your max schedule you know obviously after Mr. Court you've got DelVal you've got Kings you know the two top teams in the conference how do you keep your team focused not to look ahead to DelVal and Kings but to focus on the Cougars we've talked openly about that you know to play big games in late October early November you have to handle it one week at a time you know and that's really been the focus and you know the guys understand that the more you win the bigger the expectations and the bigger the stage and but you've got to handle the business right in front of you so I you know I think we're pretty well grounded guys have done a good job and you know we've got to take care of business and since you've been on the road the last couple weeks was it feel like how's it feel to be at home do you have to take the team on a bus like they say when you play well in the road you just take them around the corner in a bus like what's the how does it feel to be it seem be at home but it seems like almost been a month it seems like it's been a lot longer I was actually talking to Brody Campbell at practice and I was like yeah I couldn't remember last time we played a home game you know but it's nice it's it'll be nice to get back in front of the home crowd you know it's gonna be a good crowd with homecoming and you know obviously nice to sleep in your own bed you know all those kind of things so you know excited to be home for sure all right good luck today thank you all right that's it coach Ed Hoddle is the game with Mr. Cordia awaits here at noontime on homecoming like to thank our new sponsor Bonefish Grill if you come to the game on Saturday when the Mustangs score a touchdown we're gonna throw t-shirts in the crowd and a coupon for bang bang shrimp from Bonefish Grill they're located right over here in Boardwalk Circle so you can visit them with your coupon and they'll have some shrimp here for you to sample and Saturdays homecoming game as always you can watch it on Go Mustang Sports dot TV it's Mr. Cordia it is Stevenson it's homecoming right here and you get all the action on Go Mustang Sports dot com thank you for watching and Go Stangs
