Coach (Jones) drew it up for us all week. He said, 'This is how it would be,' and it was. It was awesome. |
For the first time I got settled in out there. Everything felt right in the second half. I wish we had more time out there. |
For us, it's like getting ready for what we got ready for a couple of weeks ago. |
I mean, you watch all those others guys (playing) and you see teams you think you are as good as ? or even better ? playing in bowls. You're miserable. The bowl experience is a special thing and I know, this year, I want to be in a bowl, real bad. We all do. |
I'd love to give each of (the receivers) the same number of throws, but I have to go through my reads, and see what's open. |
If you go to Hawaii, I'll guarantee I'll be there. |
It's a bummer when it rains like that. It makes the balls wet and kind of slippery. Everything is more difficult. That's football. You can play in rain, sleet, snow. It doesn't matter. Today, we just got better at throwing in the rain. |
Nobody said it's easy being a walk-on. Maybe next time I'll park next to coach (June) Jones. I don't think they would tow his car. |
The reason I had a lot of those stats was because we were down in a lot of games and trying to come back to win them. My stats might not have been as good if we went 13-0. But I'd be more than happy with that. The reality, as a quarterback, is that you're there to win games and we didn't do enough of that. |
There's a pace coach Jones kind of set from day one. No matter what happened, he's never veered from that pace. Now we're seeing the positives of that pace coming through. Now that it's the fourth game, the guys want to do more. If they threw everything at us right away, we would be here right now trying to slow things down instead of trying to accelerate things. |
They're really going to enjoy it. |
This was like our birthday. Before the game, we said, 'It starts from today.' We came here with a purpose, and I thought we played with one. We got the job done, and, hey, we're in first place, right? |
We weren't happy with the way things went last year. We definitely want to turn things around this time. |
We've got guys who can fill in, it's just getting the guys in there and getting them reps and getting them up to speed. Chad Mock did a terrific job stepping in last week. |
You watch film and you see mistakes and you learn from it. I think we have a good offense. |
