I knew I had nothing to lose, and I really didn't even expect to make the team. I just knew it was going to be a blast being on the same field with all those players. Every one of those guys has been an idol of mine. |
I think we weren't ready for them and took them lightly. There's not much more. We're not executing on offense like we should be. At the same time, it's early in the season. We can't doubt ourselves at this point. We're fine. |
Our game plan was to keep attacking the short sticks, and I think we were surprised all game that [Ritz] was getting one. Defenses are focusing on me as much as they can. That's leaving other guys open. |
There's a lot of things. That's the mystery and we're trying to figure it out. I can't give you an answer because we don't know what the answer is. This week, we're doing a lot of soul-searching trying to correct it before this game. |
Thirty-one years is a long time, and it's almost hard to believe with such a great program that we have that we haven't won one. But we as a team think we're pretty strong this year. |
This is always a tough game. We have an older group of guys on offense, and we can all score. We have guys who keep their composure. |
We've learned from our losses when we were down in the first quarter and at halftime, when we were down by four or five goals, that we can't lose our cool. We have to just come out and play hard. |
