The Wildcats were back on the field today practicing and preparing for this weekend’s Blue and White game. Coach Joker Phillips shared the following thoughts today. “I think that it was (the defense’s best practice),” Phillips said. “They did a good job of holding their gaps and stopping the run and the safeties did a good job of filling. We have to get better in our pass defense because we didn’t do that as well but one of the things that we have been putting an emphasis on is stopping the run in the last couple of practices.”[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]
“I am really pleased with the way that the defense has started to practice. They are wrapping people up and putting their face on people. (Linebacker) Danny Trevathan was one of the leaders over there in doing that and I think that they have taken what he has shown them and they all have started to practice that way. We are not there yet but we are getting better.”
The Wildcats practice one more time on Friday before Saturday’s Blue and White game.
