“I told at the beginning of the week, ‘This is not the same for you guys. I’m going to ask you to play this game like practice, just with tackling,'” Gee-Gees head coach Marcel Bellefeuille said. “I told them: ‘There’s going to be a lot of noise and that’s where you have to insulate yourself and focus on what you’re doing in the game.'”
So, now, Josh Janssen is taking the snaps — and doing a good job of it. Against Western, in the Mustangs’ homecoming game, he completed 19-of-24 passes for 213 yards. One of the keys for the Gee-Gees is a strong running game, with a good offensive line and the emergence of running back Amlicar Polk, who is averaging 145.3 yards per game .
“We’re coming together,” Grant said. “We’re starting to understand what it takes to win every week and how to prepare. I’m starting to understand the type of team we have and the guys we have in the room and what gets them going. It’s a special group. They work really hard every day.
