 Hello and welcome to the Ed Hodl show presented by Buffalo Owens. I'm very glad you showed us your football coach, Ed Hodl. Coach, homecoming on Saturday, you played all bright, you know, it was kind of tight for a half. But, you know, if you looked at the final score, you might think it was kind of a blowout. And for the second half it was for the first half, it was a very tight game. And just talk about the game. You know, obviously, we'd like to have it finished. We've got to work on coming out of the locker room, you know, a little bit more consistency on the offensive side. And I think, you know, we addressed that this week. We've talked about it, it was a great deal. You know, the guys did a great job coming out of the locker room in the third quarter. You know, I think we scored touchdowns on every drive but one. So that's, you know, quality production from our guys and finding that consistency we've been looking for. Yeah, yeah, certainly like you said, the second half you have to be very encouraged how the offense played. Obviously the defense as well, you can always give up seven points. You know, you look at the last three or four games and the defense has been playing very well, not giving up a lot of points. Yeah, Coach Nelson's been, you know, creative with his schemes and does a really good job finding out with the guys and they've done a great job responding. And, you know, I think we're getting better on both sides of the ball, which is encouraging for the next four weeks. Yeah, certainly this is the right time of the year where you want some different guys who are kind of peeking and stepping up. And speaking of that, you know, obviously with the score, the opportunity for some guys that don't normally get to see the field, got to play and, you know, they came in and made plays. And that's one of the fun things I think about watching this team is seeing so many different guys make plays. We're not relying on just one or two guys. Yeah, I think we had four or five new guys score touchdowns on Saturday that hadn't had opportunities to get in the end zone. And I think that's great for us. It's great for the player development. And I think the really cool part of that was watching the older guys really enjoying the success that some of the young guys were having late in the ballgame. You know, that to me is really exciting and encouraging. Yeah, certainly the Hallmark are a good team when you have guys that are excited, not just for their own success, but for their teammate's success. And guys that, like you said, don't get to see the field a whole lot. Absolutely. All right, now, kind of switching gears, looking forward to this week. I'll be back home. You played Kings team, kind of the same situation, kind of the middle of the pack and the conference race. And obviously a very important home game is getting out of the home stretch. Absolutely, you know, they're a good football team. You know, I think the four or two defensively, they're pretty dynamic, do some nice things. They've got a tail back that's pretty close to, you know, top two or three in the country and all purpose your arms. So we're going to have our hands full, but I think, you know, if we can go out and execute and worry about, you know, us and be focused on being the best football team we can be, hopefully we can find that success again this weekend. Yeah, absolutely. You know, fun one must think city one o'clock Saturday afternoon. Hope to see everybody there. Coach best of luck this weekend and I will chat next week. Thank you, sir. All right. Ed Hoddle, this has been Greg Royce. You watch the Ed Hoddle show.
