As Florida inches closer to its matchup against Mississippi State, find out what head coach Billy Napier had to say at the weekly conference coaches' teleconference.
' first game away from the Swamp against the Mississippi State Bulldogs just days away, UF head coach Billy Napier on Wednesday spoke on the weekly SEC coaches' teleconference.In a seven-minute session, Napier opened his portion of the teleconference by explaining the brief challenges that first-year Mississippi State coach Jeff Lebby, an offensive-minded coach, and the Bulldogs create as a whole.
During his Monday press conference, Napier mentioned trying to fix the team's mental errors and technique issues that he saw on tape against Texas A&M and explained that a lot of the mistakes Florida makes in games are uncharacteristic of what they've seen in practice. "So, between the play process has been a big point of emphasis," he explained. "We've tried to improve the scout team environment relative to the quality of that work and those reps. And, you know, I think we got to recreate the game for the players, and then we we need to have an environment that is conducive to creating good habits that can hold up on game day, and I think that's what the focus has been this week.
"I think within each game, I think you have a pulse for your ability to play with a balance and to rush the ball at times, but I think the matchups are different each week, right?" Napier said. "I think the individual player matchups, and then also that unit as a whole, upfront and on the edges. I think all those things contribute kind of how you approach the game."
