He tends to remind me about that a lot. You just have to roll with the punches around here. |
I really can't stress how important it is to us. None of us have had a bowl win since I've been here. It's been a goal for us since last season to go to a big bowl, and it would be spectacular for us to get a win and go out on top. |

It felt good to work for four years and finish doing everything we had wanted to do -- win the Big East and play in a (Bowl Championship Series) game. |

You couldn't ask for anything better. This senior class was recruited on a promise that we would be at this level. |
