We need to regroup and get back in the hunt. We felt like we beat a good Hawaii team last week and I still feel like we have a good team. We didn't play particularly well today, but it's far from over. |
We're basically back to where we were last year. Matt Kubik will start based on the fact he played the most last year. Donald Allen will play early on and we'll leave it at that and see where we go from there. |
We've really got to look at it and see what gives us the best opportunity to make plays. |
We've tried to stress to our players that they shouldn't think the worst. No one is having any success calling people in these areas. Our No. 1 priority is the well-being both physically and emotionally of these young men. This just wouldn't have been a good day to practice. |
Without a doubt. Maybe one freshman (would start or play a lot). |
You can't put a price tag on something like this. This is probably the most significant gift of this kind to any program in America, and by probably the best quarterback to ever play the game. It's one thing to say Terry Bradshaw played here, but the fact that you can see that tangibly now will mean so much for years to come. |
[Outlook: Jackson, who was used sparingly in the first two games, is expected to earn a greater role as the season progresses. With the logjam at running back, Jackson is now assigned to return kicks.] We keep giving him opportunities, ... and he keeps doing a good job for us. |
[The Bulldogs get a short break from the problems caused by Hurricane Katrina when they open the season at No. 10 Florida (1-0) on Saturday.] A lot of our players have lost everything, ... It really hits home. |
[The past two seasons, coach Jack Bicknell abandoned his passing schemes to spotlight running back Ryan Moats. With Moats now in the NFL, Bicknell has dusted off his old playbooks.] I would prefer to throw the ball and then set up the run, ... If you can't throw the ball, you're absolutely dead. |
