"“We have a (lot of) young guys, and this was their first time being at Hard Rock, getting some experience and a little bit of adversity from having the fans having some extra eyes on them. A lot of guys played, like Gilbert (Frierson), Greg (Rousseau) the DE, just really flying around. I think as a defense we did pretty well today, but we have a long way to go. “The only thing I told them was to do what got them here. They wouldn’t be at Miami if they couldn’t ball, so I just told them to go out there and play your game. That’s the only thing I told them. Don’t focus on the crowd, don’t focus on your mom and your dad up there, just focus on being the player you can be today, and I think they really did that.” “I think we have a lot of room to grow. We have a lot of shoes to fill. We have a lot of guys who still aren’t here yet who need to get used to the playbook and college football and the competition that comes with it. I think we have a long way to go, but we’re going to get there without a doubt.”"

While the young players give the Miami defense an infusion of talent, it was the veterans who Richt noticed on Saturday.
