All you need to know about Petersen shows up in the first minute and a half of the video:
1) Respect your opponent: Lots of good players and coaches out there all trying to do their job
2) Execution is a 60 minute pursuit: Any game can be changed in a matter of moments based on sloppy or unfocused play
Bottom line, the above represents details. The details of not looking past anybody just because of who they play for. The details of doing your job in practice such that when you go play on gameday you aren't looking at a situation you've never done before. The details of how a great play takes the efforts of all 11 on the field and is rarely the result of one extraordinary play.
When you look at things in that manner, there's a reason why we have a coach that is 95-12.
I expect a team that is going to get better and better as the season progresses. I see a team that the more success they have, the more they will realize that they have a coach that is telling them the truth instead of puffing up his public profile and resume. The more success that they have the more that they will want to continue down the path of getting more.
I'm starting to feel very sorry for Stanford because they are 8 days away from getting an ass kicking and for Kevin Hogan to feel a little bit like this guy did on a warm September afternoon 24 years ago:

Stanford coming off a bye?...going to go to the wire sucka. Cook that shit. Hope Peter knows better than to kick to #7, and leave him in man, with no help, right before halftime.

Pete gives it to Mickens for blocking and converting 3rd downs.
Style vs substance.
Sizzle vs steak.
