Kirby Smart

On resiliency among the Georgia Bulldogs…

“I credit this win to culture. I say it all the time, a culture win is as good as any win in your program. The culture of this team and the toughness and the physicality, it took over the game. We literally took over the game on offense with grind and conversion and methodical. And we then we got a little juice on defense and the crowd really got into it and I felt like we had two humungous stops. I’m proud of these guys. What a great game. The fans were awesome.”

On the performance of the backs and offensive line …

“I thought the backs ran really hard. I thought the offensive line played really hard. It was physical and our offensive line was tired. For the first time we were able to stay a little bit fresh- so we rolled a lineman. It gave us a little bit of juice. When you get like that and you stay healthy, you have a pretty good group that can be really physical.”

On the key to getting Ole Miss off the field late in the game…

“Huge. I thought the momentum we got by getting those stops on third down juiced up the offense. It got the crowd back into the game. We were hot and cold on defense. And when we’re hot, we’re hot and we’re not, we’re not. That’s frustrating and something we have to work on.”G

On reading the defense…

“You always want to pick the defense apart. We were executing well today. It was a great game.”

On the overall offense…

“I feel like we played hard. We are never out of it. We had a lot of play makers involved. We did a good job of getting what we could get.” On his connection with Lawson Luckie tonight… “It was a great night. He works like crazy. I am glad it paid off for him.”

On his improvement this season…

“I have been able to cut it lose a bit. Not worrying about what could happen. Just playing quarterback and having fun.”
