Watch: Joe Bob Clements Tuesday Press Conference

Tuesday marked the third day in Arizona for Oklahoma State as they arrived Sunday afternoon. Head coach Mike Gundy has met with the media a few times, so Tuesday was reserved for an defensive assistant coach and some defensive players.

Defensive line coach Joe Bob Clements was the coach designated to speak with the media ahead of Tuesday’s practice. He had quite a bit to say ahead of the Fiesta Bowl matchup against Notre Dame on Jan. 1, starting with how practices have been going since arriving in The Grand Canyon State.

"We got in here on Sunday. We had a lighter practice, but the guys were enthusiastic and worked hard. They had a little bit of a heavier practice yesterday, and then we'll begin to taper down moving forward before the game. But the guys have been enthusiastic. The practice facilities have been nice. They're working hard and they're excited about playing this game."
