There's no disappointment. We just won a game, ... They're doing their job, we're doing ours. |
They can have all that (attention). We're prepared to go out and play. Once you get on the field, we're going to get after them guys. |
They were talking about nothing but last year. But it's a whole different team over here and we wanted to show them we are a different team. |
They're a top 10 team. They made plays. It was important for me to show poise and be ready to make plays when we got the ball back. |
They're not getting any pub. It runs me hot a little that they don't say anything about our defense. |
They've been fighting with us since we lost 12-0. They've been there when we were down 35-7 to Oklahoma State [Texas scored 49 straight points in 2004 to win]. They've been there. They wanted to touch me. I wanted to touch them, too. |
This award (Maxwell) means a whole lot because people doubted me about being a quarterback and thought I should have been moved to another position. I wanted to show the world how good a quarterback I could be. If this doesn't silence those critics, then I'll just go back to work and try to fix whatever I need to fix. |
This game against Rice is going to be one of the hardest games to play, ... We just came off a big victory against a great team. Some guys do relax after a game like that. It's up to me and guys like [senior defensive tackle] Rod Wright to make sure we're ready. |
To get him this victory, we love playing for a guy like that. |
To me it's a great accomplishment knowing that they think that I'm a great athlete, |
To me, it's like a Texas-Arkansas game. They were doing a lot of trash-talking, and they had their [commemorative] shirts. To me, it's just a fun game, two great schools going at it, trying to get a victory. |
To me, mistakes happen, ... I don't really think about last year's game. It's all about now. |
Tough play right there. I looked at every receiver and no one was open. Then I looked back, saw the (opening) and took it down. |
Trash talk always inspires me. |
Until you beat me, I'm not going to change nothing. |
