Is there a different mindset when conference play really begins? What did the UCLA game experience do for the guys? In the grand scheme of things, does being ranked 10th mean as a whole and a program? Is there a different vibe for a night game? Does Coach Oliver prefer afternoon or night games? How does Coach Oliver feel about NIL and what it’s doing to college football and impacting the atmosphere? How much time does he have to devote to his players now that NIL is a factor? How has he been balancing the relationships with the players, when it comes to keeping them happy on a regular basis now that they have options? What can the NCAA do to help NCCU thrive?
