As far as motivation goes, if we didn't have it before two days ago, we definitely found it. I think that had a lot to do with why we came out so strong. |
Do I think about sex on the field? I wondered where you were going with that one. |
Honestly, we thought it was unfortunate, but it didn't change the mind-set of the team. I think it'd take a little away from the game and from them if we came out and played soft or anything just to cater to them, so it didn't change our mind-set at all. |
I definitely want to come out and play strong every time. Not to make them out to be something they're not, but last year they came out and played us pretty tough, and so I just wanted to come out and do the best that I could. |
I don't want to take anything away from them, because they put together a great effort. You definitely respect them as a school and as a team, but just from watching them on film, we thought there were definitely some things we could accomplish as far as getting sacks and getting in the quarterback's face. |
I just said ?Someone had to make a play, someone had to step up,' and someone did. |
I know their turf is blue. |
I recognize that a lot of teams in the ACC do have a tremendous amount of speed. But we have a lot of players who are fast, too. |
I was shocked at how blatant it was. I had done nothing to him. ... I don't buy that he got overexcited. |
I was waiting throughout the whole draft and knew somebody would take me, I just didn't know who. When it got to that point, I was surprised that the Giants took me, but I wasn't surprised that I went. |
I went from the scout team to (team) captain as a junior. Anyone who takes me is going to get someone willing to work hard, put the whole attitude thing aside, and work hard to win the game. |
I'm assuming that the New York Giants felt like they saw a good athlete that they couldn't pass up on. From my standpoint, I'm not exactly sure how I'll fit in; I just know that I will somewhere. |
I'm confident that I'll be back by Virginia Tech. I'm definitely going to push to be on the field. But there's no fighting with the head man. ... He obviously has the last say. I trust his judgment. |
I'm pretty sure he'll tell you he wins the most. If you go back on film and count them up, I'm pretty sure I'll come out on top. |
It became very apparent this was an away game for us at the banquet last night. I've played in some pretty hostile environments ... and a lot of things that have gone on in my career have helped prepared us for the game. |
