Stoops: “It’s good to be 2-0”

Stoops on success vs. USC “At the time they were big wins”

Stoops: “It was good to go on the road in week one and get the win. We know this atmosphere will be different”

Stoops says that snaps need to be improved because two ended drives

Stoops: “We need to contest more passes and we need to tackle better”

Stoops: “Nobody is going to make us apologize for being 2-0”

Stoops: “The big word is just discipline. We have to be disciplined in all aspects of it and execute”

Stoops on Jordan Jones: “We got a little issue with his shoulder. We will see how it goes throughout the week”

Stoops on Bone: “He’s just been more consistent. He’s been working harder, earning our trust”

Stoops on defense: “One thing we look at is explosive plays. There wasn’t a lot of explosive plays”

Stoops on Snell: “It’s definitely one of those injuries that is very painful. There will be some pain and we will see how it goes. I think Jordan’s is similar”

Stoops on the Wildcat: “In game one it was a combination of the backs not letting the smoke clear. Sometimes it’s blocking and a combination of it”

Stoops on the importance of USC game: “It’s super important because it’s the next game”

Stoops on D-line: “Again solid, not as good, not as sharp. That’s no knock on them, I think that’s just how we were across the board”

Stoops: “They’re fun to coach. They want to get better”

Stoops on Bowden: “I’m sure he’s frustrated after that last incident here. His time will come”
