I've had a great week. It sucks that the game went the way it did, but i loved seeing an almost packed lower bowl in the dome, and i loved that we had so many students arrive. It shows me not only that this is a rivalry, but that it's going to help our school so much in getting fans riled up and giving them a reason to care.

I talked a lot of smack; i did it on purpose. I wanted our fans to get riled up, i wanted your fans to get riled up. I wanted as many people to turn up as possible, from both schools. I wanted to see both sides care. I think an atmosphere like this is exactly what we need, to prove to me and everyone else just how much impact our football team can have for our school. This was the first time i've heard kids at school talking about a football game. I went out around town after the game wearing my gear and had so many people asking me about how the game went.

The score sucked. But the impact that having a game like this had has been incredible. I never used to believe it, but now i know that i love that Southern was added to the conference, and i love that we hate each other and that we all get riled up. This is a huge deal for GSU athletics, and i hope it lasts and continues like it did this year for many years to come. This can really be something special.

I've had a great week. I can't wait until we play you at basketball. Everything i said, all the smack, was to rile everyone up, and it worked. It's obviously not personal, i just wanted to our school to have this atmosphere, and we absolutely did. Thanks guys, i can't wait until we play you at basketball, and next year, and every season after.

Congrats on the win. You beat the hell out of us. I stayed the whole time, i loved taking it in even with the beating.
