I've been trying to tell everybody for years that Stephen Geller is a Division I receiver, and people just don't understand it. He's a big-time player. He has great speed. He can catch anything you throw at him. Plus he's as good a cornerback as I've ever had. I don't know what it is they think it is he doesn't have. He can flat out play. |

We're getting healthier, and our defense has done a terrific job all year. It should be a good game. |
