To me playing the game is what's most important. We don't have the luxury of playing four preseason games. We don't have the luxury of playing 16 games. We've got 11 games to get it done. Right now my focus, obviously, is that this is game week, and we're all excited about that. |
We are aware of the situation. We will continue to monitor the situation and make any judgments about disciplinary matters when we are comfortable that we know all of the facts involved. |
We got a really late start on him, ... And I asked if the other guy didn't accept, would he still accept our scholarship offer? And he said, 'Absolutely.' |
We got to continue to teach them to not use their head as a battering ram. |
We had 17 runs by the running backs; that's not enough in the game to win, |
We had one blip where we did not have the emotion necessary to play this game at a high level, ... What's important is that the team regrouped, the leadership came through, and the players came back. |

We had two runners out there that hadn't played football at the (NCAA) Division I level in a long time, ... One never and the other one hadn't played in two years. So that's probably going to take some live action to get into the flow of things. |
We have put an awful lot of emphasis on kickoff coverage and we are not satisfied with that right now. We have to continue to work on that part of our game because we were the worst in the country last year. |
We have six receivers now who can play, and the only guy we didn't see on the field was Brooks Foster , and we'll get that done next week, |
We need to do a better job bringing pressure from the edge, ... That's a problem we've had for a while. We still lack a `war daddy' at end. We've just got to keep working on it. |
We played with a lot of emotion, then got kicked in the stomach in the third quarter. It's a tough one. |
We wasted a pretty good defensive performance — best one we've had around here in a long time. |
We were focusing on running the ball more in the first half and we stuck with it, ... In the second half, they blitzed about every play. |
We're going to have to do a great job shifting gears in getting ready for something that's absolutely, totally different from what we've faced, ... It puts pressure on everybody. It is another form of the triple option. The forms of deception that they have with their form of the triple option is unique. It was last year, and it is this year. |
