--Saying he's disappointed in the game. Team moved the ball well in the first half but they really hurt themselves in the second half. Tackling was a poor spot defensively.

--Asked about fourth down, said he felt confident about the defense pinning them back. Said he felt comfortable.

--Said they'll go back and evaluate Jake Bentley's performance today but said once North Carolina took the lead they were able to pin their ears back and attack a little more.

--Muschamp said OrTre Smith and AJ Turner are going to be fine. Both were game time decisions. Said Turner was a shoulder injury.

--Team's going to be fine. Muschamp said it's not a wholesale changes issue, more just tweaks here and there. Team's not where it needs to be on both lines of scrimmage after today.

--Muschamp said they're going to evaluate all positions moving forward. Said they should be fine because of the leadership this team has and the players on the roster.

--He thought they'd be much further along on the offensive line than what they were Saturday.

--In terms of the passing game being in flux, said he doesn't want to make any comments on it before re-watching the film. Said they went in with a lot of RPOs becaues they were trying to get one-on-ones outside that they didn't get. We took some shots down the field and missed on those.

--Defensively they had opportunities but they need to make plays.

--North Carolina's made it hard for the defense to get set, which led to players being out of position and not able to make some tackles. Said it was frustrating because the defense had no problem handling tempo in camp.
