I think it's a credit to our defense to be able to stop them after turnovers on our side of the 50-yard line. Turnovers on the 1-yard line are also hard to overcome. That's not us. |
I think it's got the makings of a heck of a Thursday night football game. I think they're better. They talk about they're back in the title hunt, and they are. They control their own destiny. |
I think it's huge. Anytime you say you're doing something for the third time in your football history, that's pretty significant. |
I think Marcus showed he's going to be dangerous. That was a fast defense chasing him, and a couple of times he outran some fast guys. |
I think my coaches perform at a very, very high level, so this is getting closer to certainly where I think they should be [in pay], ... I think [his assistants] were pretty pleased. |
I think Roland welcomes the challenge. |
I think sometimes you're a better program than people realize you are. And I think that might be Louisville's case. I mean in the last three years they have won 29 games. They're for real. I think this team can play with anyone. |
I think that's something, as we go through the week, we talk about a little bit and think about, |
I think that's what changed this game around. Instead of them being 7-3, it's 14-0. It's momentum. It's points. It's everything. There's just no bigger play in football than when you block a kick, particularly a field goal. |
I think the best two teams are going to end up playing for it, whether it's us or not, |
I think the challenge for us this week is are we a better football team than we were last week? As many good things as we did in the N.C. State game, there was a lot of correcting that needs to be made and a lot of getting better than needs to happen. I believe ... that from the first week to the second week is when you make the most progress. And we have to take advantage of that situation here. |
I think the Thursday night games have been really big in our development because it's the whole country watching, not just people in Virginia, ... I think they're big. If you can play well, they're a tremendous recruiting advantage. If you're playing on Saturday, you're competing against five games in your time slot. If you're playing on Thursday night, there's not much else on TV. |
I think us getting Cornell showed a lot of players that Virginia Tech had something going here. Getting him here was huge for us, and it helped us get a lot more good players down the line. |
I think we have good coaches and good players in this state. We've really made an effort to re- cruit well in the state. I think the records would show that we have, particularly in the last few years. You look at our roster and it is further proof that we are winning with a lot of Virginia kids. |
I think we're going to have to change how we do that. Great offensive linemen are hard to find and can be hard to sign, but you need them. You can't just count on finding them anymore. |
