George's thoughts about the game against Florida:
"We didn't do what it took to win that game. We played a very good Florida team over there and we didn't do what we had to go out there and do. There are certain things that it takes to win and we didn't do those things this time."
Thoughts on Southern Miss' fan representation in Gainesville:
"It was really exciting and really emotional. There was a great turn out and it really shocked me. We have some wonderful and supportive fans."
Thoughts about the preparations to play Southeastern Louisiana:
"They're going very well. It's been a good few days so far and we're working really hard to improve. We just need to keep on getting better. This week, we're concentrating on fixing all of the problems that we had last week in Florida. We're gradually trying to get better."
What George likes about Southern Miss home games:
"You're at home and there is no place like home. It's your fans, your friends and your family. Nothing can compare to playing at your own home."
George's favorite Southern Miss tradition:
"We don't lose at home. It's that simple. When you're home you go out there and give it all you've got. You give it your all every game but playing at home is different. You have to defend your home. We don't lose here at The Rock."
