Geno on the game: I don't think there's anything differentn about it, other than usually we're #1, the hype is a little different. Two really good teams are playing and South Carolina didn't all of a sudden get good. Nobody should be surprised that they are in this situation. I don't know what happens tonight is going to be a really huge indicator of what could happen down the road.
On the AAC's lack of competition: This same thing happened last year. Didn't matter who we were playing, we beat everybody bad. This year's team is not as good as last year's, and that's true of everyone. You look around the country, it's not a great senior class. We're lucky we have a couple of juniors that are pretty good.
On Tuck and Stewie: Not sending a message with Tuck and Stewie. To me it's just been a pattern that's been evolving. We just kinda go in, and let the things go, and whatever happens happens, we're gonna win. Did they deserve it, no, but I'm Italian and I do dumb things and you don't know why you did it.
