00:00 Is that the ball?
00:00 This is the ball.
00:02 They let me keep it.
00:03 I hope Bo didn't like this one, because it's not
00:06 going back in the game.
00:08 You have a place in mind?
00:09 A place, like where I'm going to keep it?
00:11 My parents' house.
00:14 They're the ones who got me here,
00:17 so they're the ones who deserve this.
00:19 James, you touched on the way KMF and Washington
00:24 and TV talked about how you told your parents
00:28 they could take their jerseys off.
00:30 Yeah, no, I don't know where that came from.
00:33 I may have joked about it with them, but they're proud parents.
00:37 They're not taking those jerseys off, no matter what happens.
00:39 Well, they mentioned it that far,
00:41 but if you said it was jokingly, you weren't being--
00:45 No, absolutely not.
00:46 I would never tell my parents to do that.
00:47 They care so much about me.
00:49 I care so much about them.
00:50 They're proud of me no matter what,
00:51 and they're keeping those jerseys on.
00:54 In the back, Matt.
00:55 What's this record mean, and how much were you aware
01:00 of how close you were throughout the season leading up
01:02 to today?
01:03 Yeah, I mean, I think I mentioned it
01:05 at the start of the year.
01:05 I was definitely-- it was on my mind,
01:07 but I couldn't do it all in one game.
01:08 It was going to happen one way or another.
01:12 Should have got it a few games earlier, for sure.
01:14 Definitely could have, but yeah, when I got here as a freshman,
01:18 I knew it was a possibility, and I'm fortunate enough
01:20 to be a part of teams led by Justin Herbert, Bo Nix, Anthony
01:24 Brown, guys who score touchdowns, and a lot of them.
01:27 So without those guys, without the elite receivers,
01:31 the elite players we've had over the years,
01:33 I couldn't do it without those guys.
01:35 So as much as it's my record, it's their record, too.
01:37 I can't kick PATs and field goals
01:39 unless they're getting me in range.
01:40 So I'm super proud of it.
01:43 I knew it was a possibility, but it's
01:45 pretty cool to get this record.
