00:00 I feel like growing up in the Midwest and being around Big Ten football,
00:04 it's always something that Thanksgiving weekend, you always tuned into.
00:08 It was always the game of the week.
00:09 So just being a part of that as a youngin and
00:12 then growing up being a fan of both teams and
00:16 just always wanted to be a part of this.
00:19 That's probably the biggest thing I'd say.
00:21 I grew up first being an Ohio State fan, I won't lie.
00:24 I did, but God had different plans for me and showed me the way.

00:59 But I would just predict that we're gonna do anything and
01:02 everything to win this football game.
01:03 Whether it's me running the ball or just throwing the ball.
01:06 So I feel like things will arise just from scrambling and taking off.
01:11 But no matter what he asks me, I'm just gonna go out there and execute.
01:15 I would say so.
01:16 Just the whole process and
01:20 throughout the day of just not having him there, it was different at first.
01:24 And just now with that experience and knowing how it works and
01:28 how the coaches react to certain things and how they go about coaching the game.
01:33 It's gonna be tremendous for us this Saturday because it's one of the bigger
