Watching CFS press conference and he says Heard had a fever Thursday and they "filled him up with fluids" on Friday. Considering the heat on the field Saturday, I'm sure it affected his play...and he didn't play that badly...

 
Yes, he had a stomach Virus __ there were several tweets from media members on Saturday confirming he was ill during the game and not available for media after the game

There were about 86,0000 people sick after the game along with Heard.

 
Pretty impressive when you think about it.

Back in the day I played one game with 102 fever. I was miserable, especially after the game.

 
Definitely impressive considering. Playing while sick is tough. I couldn't imagine being a qb and having to do it

 
FR QB, Jerrod Heard spoke with media Today

On confidence of team:

We think on a positive note. We don't think of the negative things we had in the game. We try to not think about the game from last week and move on to the next, which is TCU. We are just trying to have fun.

On Oklahoma State's defense stopping the QB scramble:

Definitely, I know that from now on I can't just run wherever. People are going to have a spy on me and blitz. Right now I don't really think about that. I just react how it goes, but definitely it will change.

On Tyrone Swoopes play package:

It's good having that package, where you have two quarterbacks that can go in at any time and execute. When he got those first downs and that touchdown, it was a really big spark for the team. I get so excited when I see him go out there and run everybody over. It's exciting for us.

On Swoopes' role with team:

Right now, Swoopes is like another coach to me. I am still listening to him. Everything he says to me I keep my ears open, even when he is telling me to drop this way or look this way first. I am definitely listening to him because he has the experience, and I am definitely going to keep listening to him.

On players only meeting:

Some players came together and called a meeting because we just needed to hear each other's voices. I think that it was needed and it was one of those 'come to Jesus' talks. We definitely needed that, and we rallied up and we needed to hear each other's voices and just hear what needed to be said.

Nuff said.
