Mullen is here. Says that first conference game often dictates how your conference season goes, "big game."
Mullen: We had a good practice yesterday, guys got after it.
Mullen on if he'd use the quarterbacks differently: I don't know that I would use them differently.
Mullen on OL: I thought overall we played well, said they did have some critical errors at key moments.
Mullen says he plans to use Smitherman and Peters the same as last week. Neither played a defensive snap, so that's an interesting answer.
Mullen: I think our effort and execution dropped in the second half, our mental toughness.
