 Hello, and welcome to the Ed Hoddle Show. I'm Greg Royce, shown by Stevenson Football Coach Ed Hoddle. And Coach, you had the bye week this week, and you're back to practice this week. How the first couple days back to a normal practice schedule gone? Well, it's been a little bit different because we're on fall break. So we had the opportunity to get our guys and have them the better part of the day. Got some film work in in the morning, practiced early afternoon, got back into the film later on in the afternoon and accompanied with a lift. So it's kind of been going back to camp, going back to preseason a little bit, which gives you a little extra time to work some fundamentals and things. So I think it's been very productive. Yeah, one of the things we talked about last week and even after the last game was giving you guys some rest and get some guys back healthy and get some guys that have been playing maybe a little bit closer 100%. How's that rest gone? And are the guys ready to go for the second half of the season? It's been really, really productive. We rested guys during practice. We had a handful of guys not practice at all last week. So it's been productive. And it's nice to see fresh likes out there. So we're excited. The guys are getting healthy. They're getting back into the swing of things. And hopefully it'll pay dividends down the road. Yeah, what's been kind of the mindset of the team? Obviously, by we came right to halfway point, five games down, five to go. Obviously, in the thick of three other teams in the thick of the race at the top of the conference, what's the mindset going in the second half of the season? Well, it really hasn't changed. It's one game at a time, focus on what we can do to be the best football team we can on Saturdays. And I think we use the bi-week effectively, really looking at what we've done to this point and what we can continue to do as we start back playing again on Saturday. So for us, it's just refocusing on our goals for the season and looking at what we can do to be the best football team we can each Saturday. Yeah, so this Saturday you go on the road. You can head up to Eleanor Valley. Team that last year, they try to take the air out of the ball a little bit when you play them here. That's something that they try to do. What's the challenge in that team that tries to slow it down a little bit? Well, the pressure then becomes, offensively and particularly, you have to execute. And you have to execute at a high level. No pre or post snap penalties. You've got to manage the change. You have to go out in a limited possession scenario and be very, very effective offensively. You can't waste possession. So that's been a big emphasis for us this week. And they're a big physical football team and a team that wants to beat you up and slow the pace of the game down. So we've got to be ready to meet that physical challenge Saturday. All right, well, Coach, best of luck this Saturday. We'll talk to you after the game and safe travels for Ed Hoddle. I'm Greg Royce. This has been the Ed Hoddle Show.
