'Bout what I was gonna say to you boys, you know what, then I thought they understand football. You understand the X's and O's. But what I want to talk to you about today is that I'm proud of each and everyone of you. Not for what you achieved on the field, but what you achieved off the field. You've become a family, become a team. When we first started this we were just individuals. we learned to work with each other, and when your brother gets down, you picked him up. and I'm really proud of that. How this is a big day for us, big day for this town, we haven't had a championship here in well over six years. I'd like to win that thing. But if we don't; I want you to know that I'll be just as proud of you as if you had. So before you go out on that field, I want you to pray for a win, I want you to pray that your friends say safe, that the other team stays safe. And if you play like a family, like the team you've become, nobody's gonna stop you. Are you with me? [the football players clap and cheer]
Coach Z: Everybody go get dressed out, see Donnie for your game jersey's and I'll see you out on the field.
