COACH SMART: I’d like to thank the Sugar Bowl committee for coming out and greeting us. It’s gotten to be a time-honored tradition that I’ve been a part of a lot of times. Always like the festive music and the guys coming out to welcome us.
It’s great to be here. Our players love coming to this bowl because of the extracurricular activities they’re able to give us in the city of New Orleans. I know our players really enjoy it. The bowl activities are really. Good and a lot of guys were looking forward to being able to come back and do some of the things they didn’t get to do last year.
