Colt wrapup part 2

From the Honolulu Advertiser:

Brennan, who was in for only 17 plays, completed 2 of 6 passes for 29 yards and one interception for the South squad, but there was one bright spot for him in the game — the South defeated the North, 17-16, thanks to a 2-yard touchdown run by Florida’s Andre Caldwell on the game’s final play.

“It was a great game (as a whole),” Brennan said. “I wish I could have played a lot better. But our team had a great chemistry and it’s been a fun week. I just hope I can work out in the next couple of months and get bigger and stronger and have a great combine.”

Communication issues also created problems for the other two South quarterbacks — Kentucky’s Andre Woodson, who finished the day 3 of 6 for 27 yards and a touchdown, and South Offensive MVP Erik Ainge of Tennessee, who was 13 of 21 for 159 yards and led the South on its winning drive.

“Every time I went in, my headpiece kept messing up and I couldn’t hear the plays right,” Brennan said. “I didn’t know if I was calling the right play or not.”

“He (Brennan) couldn’t get the plays because of the microphone problems, and it caused him to be a little bit discombobulated,” said San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike Martz, who was part of the South squad coaching staff. “But he had a great week of practice. He’ll be fine (in the NFL) because he sees things so well and gets the ball out quick.”
