ALL RIGHT, TIME FOR THE TO
THE OTHER SIDE TO THE STORY.
WE HEARD ABOUT CAL VER HALL AND
NOW BRAD HAL IS WITH US.
YOU HAVE BEEN AROUND THE BLOCK
A COUPLE OF TIMES AND A FOUR
TIME PLAYER, RIGHT?
YEAH, BACK IN '94-'95.
THAT'S THE HARDEST YOU GOT
HIT RIGHT?
YEAH, DOWN IN THE
INTERCEPTION AND TOOK A GOOD
SHOT.
FOR THE FOLLOWING THREE YEARS I
STARTED AS A QUARTERBACK.
YOU'RE A FIFTH YEAR COACH
HERE AND LOST TWO TOUGH ONES.
THEY KICK A FIELD GOAL AND YOU
WON A THRILLER THE YEAR BEFORE.
YEAH, AND IT'S BEEN FUN TOO
TO WATCH THEM COMPETE AND
REPRESENT THE COMMUNITY THE
BEST WAY WE KNOW HOW.
DO YOU HAVE TO TELL THEM
WHAT THIS GAME MEANS?
OR DO THEY ALREADY KNOW?
WELL, THEY KNOW, BUT WE
ALWAYS REMINDS REMIND THEM.
-- MAKE SURE WE REPRESENT THE
COMMUNITY LIKE WE DO.
QUICK ON THE JOURNEY TO GET
HERE, WHAT IS THIS SEASON BEEN
LIKE FOR THE TEAM?
WELL, UPS AND DOWNS.
WE STARTED OFF 4-0. CAN THEN
FIVE STRAIGHT LOSSES BUT THEN
GOT BACK INTO THE WING COLUMN.
SO WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF
INJURIES THAT HAVE HURT US.
WE'RE ALMOST LIKE A DIFFERENT
TEAM.
LIKE FIVE OR SIX KIDS TO HAVE
SURGERY ENDING SEASONS.
SO THAT GIVES THE OTHER GUYS A
CHANCE TO STEP UP AND MAKE THE
PLAYS.
YOU HAVE A VETERAN
QUARTERBACK.
WILL IS A GREAT KID AND HAS
THE ABILITY TO GET THE GUYS
INTO THE POSITION THEY NEED TO
BE.
WE'RE ABLE TO USE THE MULTIPLE
PERSONNEL GROUPS TO PUT THEM
INTO DIFFERENT POSTS.
WE'RE ABLE TO SPEED UP OR SLOW
DOWN THE GAME TOO.
THE GUYS UP FRONT?
WE LOST OUR CENTER EARLY,
BUT WE WERE ABLE TO SHUFFLE
THEM AROUND A LITTLE BIT AND
THAT'S HELPING THE OFFENSE.
AND THE PLAYMAKERS, THE GUYS
THAT CAN HIT THE HOME RUN FOR
YOU?
WE HAVE THE ATHLETES ON THE
OUTSIDE.
ALSO OUR RUNNING BACK, SMITH
AND OMAR -- WILL DOES A GREAT
JOB OF CONTROLLING THE PACE.
I GUESS -- THERE'S ALWAYS A
LOT TO BE LEARNED WHEN YOU HAVE
A QUARTERBACK BE THE ON FIELD
COACH, KNOWING WHAT YOU WANT TO
DO.
WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME
TOGETHER.
GOING OVER THE GAME AND TAPES.
AND THEY WILL UNDERSTAND THE
EXECUTED PLAY, SO IT'S GOOD AND
HE'S THE RIGHT GUY FOR THE JOB.
I'M LOOKING AT THE SCORES
EARLY AND YOU GUYS WERE GIVING
UP ABOUT 9 POINTS A GAME AND
THEN THE DEFENSE GOT LEAKY.
YES, THEY'RE GOOD.
LED BY EVANS AND HE'S A GOOFY
KID, BUT HE BRINGS THE ENERGY
AND PASSION IN ORDER TO HELP US
STOP THE GUYS.
A.J.
CARVER, AND GLOCK AND OTHERS
ARE ABLE TO CONTROL THE GAME.
THAT'S HELPED US A LOT.
WE'LL NEED A GOOD EFFORTS FROM
EFFORT FROM THE D. LINE.
AND I'M GOING TO EMBARRASS
YOU, BUT THIS IS YOUR LAST
TURKEY BOWL AND IT'S BEEN PART
OF YOUR LIFE SINCE THE '90S,
ARE YOU GETTING EMOTIONAL?
IT DOESN'T FEEL DIFFERENT
YET, BUT I THINK ABOUT IT ALL
THE TIME.
THIS ONE IS REALLY SPECIAL TO
ME.
I GUESS IT WILL HIT ME WHEN THE
GAME IS OVER.
BUT I WANT THEM TO EXPERIENCE
THAT, WINNING THE TURKEY BOWL.
I WORRY ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO
COACH, I'LL WORRY ABOUT THAT
LATER.
AND WHAT WOULD YOU TELL
PEOPLE, WHAT THIS MEANS TO THE
COMMUNITIES HERE?
WELL, YOU KNOW, IT'S A GREAT
GAME FOR BALTIMORE.
BIG TIME RIVALRY AND A GREAT
TRADITION AND TWO COMMUNITIES
THAT ARE COMING TOGETHER TO
COMPETE.
