Jake Bentley on Finebaum

He was the lead interview right out of the gate on Finebaum today.

Did a great job. He's a good ambassador for the program.

Talked about coming off the loss to UVA and how they are preparing for UNC and how hard they have worked and how confident they are.

Gameplan has been in the works for awhile now. Spends a lot of time watching what film they have on UNC and their coordinators.

Talked about the schedule. Said it is a challenge but he is looking at is as opportunities to do well, take it one game at a time and to meet goals.

Finebaum pushed on the failure of last season.

Bentley said he feels good about it, thinks Kinlaw is going to have a great season along with Jaycee Horn. Says he's ready to face someone else because they have been so good.

Said the summer is a mental strain but the season is as well but he feels this older crew is more prepared and understands the grind.

Said he gets ready for games by gathering as much information as he can and he learned a lot from Peyton Manning at the Manning camp this off season about how QBs have to prepare.

Said he has great relationships especially with Jake Fromm and Joe Burough and they have a good time when they are together. They relate a lot with one another. They are open about their approaches to the game.
