“We have to go in with the mentality that we’re going in there for the win and match their intensity from the kickoff. They come out extremely aggressive and they’re an extremely physical team. If we don’t match their intensity, they have the potential to run us out of the country. It’s going to be extremely mental for us to start the game off right — and start the game off aggressively.”
