00:00 JP, first career 100 receiving the 100 yard game for you.
00:03 How does it feel out there?
00:05 >> Man, it felt great.
00:06 We're just all flying around there.
00:08 We had a lot of confidence in Hoover and he came out and
00:11 executed the game plan at a really high level.
00:14 And hats off to the guys on scout teams throughout the week in practice.
00:18 They gave us a great look.
00:20 And that was a big reason we were able to come out here and
00:22 play how we did today.
00:23 >> Were you all surprised at all about how well Hoover played today?
00:27 >> Not at all.
00:29 Ever since week one, even when he was a backup,
00:31 he prepared like he was a starter.
00:34 And his maturity level is, I'm not sure you come around kids
00:41 of his character and his ability too often.
00:46 He's a great person.
00:46 I'm not surprised at all about how he played today.
00:50 He does it every day in practice.
00:53 He's done it since the spring.
00:55 And I'm just really, really happy for him.
00:58 I think he showed a lot of people what he's capable of today.
01:01 And I think he might even show himself a little bit, what he can do.
01:04 So I think next week, K-State, we're gonna have to tag.
01:08 But it was good to get some confidence today.
01:11 >> Jim, you talked about starting together, the big six and then the first round.
01:14 With that touch, I'm seeing you kind of bounce off that guy and
01:17 go on the end zone.
01:17 You just talked about the full team right away.
01:19 >> Yeah, the defense that came out and did their job right away, big six.
01:22 That's always huge.
01:24 Go get some points up.
01:26 So that was definitely really good to see.
01:29 And then, yeah, it was just a little seam route.
01:31 It was cover three.
01:34 And Hoover put it on me, great throw.
01:36 And the guy just, he didn't wrap up.
01:39 And I just bounced off him and took it.
01:41 So it was a great play call.
01:43 Something we practiced all week and we got the correct look for it.
01:46 And it ended up working out so.
