On whether South Carolina has worked on masking signals between plays
“We usually go through single changes. If it gets seen or anything, we go through a change.”
On how close South Carolina is from having a complete win
“It’s really close. Like we talked about in the teem meeting today, we’re close. We’re banging on the door right now. So, we just got to get through it.”
On finding balance when it comes to thinking about fumbles
“I feel like, you, obviously, have to think about it. But you’ve still got to just go out there and play. If they happen, they happen – you’ve just got to move on from them. You don’t want them to happen, but if you worry about them happening, they’re going to happen. So, you just got to go out there and play.”
On what Sellers has worked on in practice to improve ball security
“So, we always emphasize on ball security stuff. It’s, just – it wasn’t like anything you practice. This is me having to balance out between making a play and just in knowing when the journey is over and just taking sack.”

On what allowed Sellers to pass efficiently against Alabama
“It’s a mix of all those things (scheme, comfortability and wide receivers’ separation from defenders). Just timing, the way we practice, and then, just me being comfortable, like you said – me actually seeing it, going through my progressions and everything.”

On throwing more deep balls against Alabama
“I guess you could say it’s just a scheme. Ole Miss – they play really soft. Against ‘Bama, they had some holes in the defense that we just saw and took advantage of.”
On Sellers’ comfortability with wearing contacts
“I got comfortable, but I usually just wear them in practice. I forgot to get my glasses today – that’s the only reason I got them in right now.”
On Sellers’ chemistry with Mazeo Bennett
“(We were) pretty much playing at the same time. Just us being from here, we trained together growing up. (We) had the same position trainer group, or whatever you can say. So, it was just special to see. We’re learning together, gelling together, like you said.”
