Derek Mason took to the podium for his weekly press conference ahead of Saturday’s game at Ole Miss. We summarize his remarks below:
- Derek Mason started by talking up Ole Miss. At this point I’m convinced he says the same things about every opponent and every opposing coach, it would be news if he trashed the opposing team or coach to open his press conference.
- This team is energetic and moving in the right direction. Mason saw “glimpses” of solid performances on Saturday.
- The pass rush was the biggest improvement on the defense last week, and it’s been an area of emphasis.
