I think he's going to have a tremendous impact season for them. I'm sure he's hungry. He's missed a year, he has a great desire to get back into the flow of things and I'm sure he'll be featured this Saturday. |
I think what's happening is that we have better athletes on the offensive line than we've had before. They can get up and on their guys better, cover up their man better. |
I'm in the record book, ... That's not something you're proud of, so I think that's something we worked on from that standpoint, and (we) put a lot of stress into that as far as prioritizing that particular area. That's why we improved the last couple of years. |

I'm not predicting anything but for us to go out there and play to our potential and that's what we're gearing ourselves to do. Who knows which way the game is going to go and how it's going to flow and what's going to happen? We need to go out there and play good football, play to our potential and keep building on the positive things we've done in the season. |
I'm proud of our seniors. To get 10 wins off the heels of a 6-6 previous year is a great accomplishment. It's a great step forward for this program. |

I've always looked upon his career and the things he's done very favorably. Any young, up-and-coming coach, you do aspire to do a certain thing a certain way, and he was always one of those guys that I looked up to, and I still look up to. |
If he was healthy, he would have played in the first game. We wanted to get him some experience and some snaps. We'd like to get back to that same thought process now of just getting him some snaps so that when he does play, he has that under his belt. |
It is great to let our players experience a little bit of what you all do. |
It's a big bonus to have a guy who can do that, ... It's a great quality you don't see much unless you're in the NFL. |
It's a breakthrough in a number of ways, ... partly because he had his worst first half. |
It's been a fun week. I'd like to commend the Sun Bowl. It's been an unbelievable experience for our team. Practice has been great, and our players are excited about playing. We're just anxious to get the game started. It's time to play. |
It's big for our program. It's a measuring-stick kind of game to see what we're all about, to see if our players are ready for the next step. |
