And in fact, I'm excited about watching games tomorrow. It'll be fun to have it kicked off, and what you do as a coach is you sit there and you watch all the games and you make notes. … We'll actually have our players with a to-do list tomorrow during the Florida State-Georgia Tech game, because we play both teams, so we'll have them and we'll require them to watch the game and then give them assignments to write up with what they see and what they think for later down the road. And also talk to them about looking at things in those games tomorrow that might come up next Thursday for them, and how they would handle it as we wrap up preseason camp, and we did it a couple of days ago. We've been really, really hard on all the little things we've said. We're trying to figure out how we can finish better.
