good maybe national orange setting team title win won
I still think we haven't put it all together, and maybe that's good that we're still good enough to win. I told the guys, our 2000 national title team -- we won 12-7 here, and we went on to win out and play in the Orange Bowl. So a lot of things are setting up similarly.
believe believing came entire good hear media mind mistakes players ranked separation spring
We came out of spring believing that they each had a scrimmage or two that they were good at and one or two that they made some mistakes at. Each of them did that and in our mind there was not a separation going into (Thursday's) practice. I feel it's unfortunate that so many of you in the media have ranked them and have put them in place so that players have to hear that the entire summer. It's really not fair.
good great national strong teams won
So for me, being here, it's OU-Texas. It's two good teams that have won national championships. They have a great and strong tradition. And they have traditionally been nationally ranked.

good guys improvement snaps ton
I feel like we're making good improvement up there. The good thing is that those guys are out there everyday. They're getting a ton of snaps and that will make them better.
gets good guys handling plays shape understand
We're in good shape and the guys understand the plan. It just gets down to making plays and handling the different wrinkles.
committed game good job run stopping
They have always really committed to the run game and stopping the run. They do a good job of it.
against both executing good number playing plays series sides solid team watching
They're a very solid team in everything they do. Watching them against Minnesota, there were a good number of plays and series where they were really playing well and executing on both sides of the ball.
compliment compliments excellent good
Defensively, it was kind of frustrating. I have to compliment their quarterback. He did such a good job. What an excellent competitor.
actions assuming consider entertain game good justify quit reason seen shows status team until
No status right now. It's not something I said I'd even consider until after the (TCU) game. It's after the game and I haven't seen him. So, I'm assuming he's quit the team for good and until I know different, we'll see. I won't entertain anything until he shows he has a good reason or he can justify what his actions have been.
assignment ball boundary busting covering deep entire gave good outside played positions route secondary solid somebody tackled wheel
I thought the secondary played solid and good the entire day. The one deep wheel route we gave up on our boundary was somebody else outside of the secondary busting an assignment and not covering their guy. They tackled well for the most part, their positions on the ball and challenging in many coverage, I thought, were really pretty good.
came field good guy guys jason josh night step sure talk tomorrow white
He was always the first guy Jason White would talk to when he came off the field. Josh has a really good way with those guys and I'm sure he'll step right in here tomorrow night and do the same thing.
definitely good passing
He handles it well and, I'll tell you, he has good hands. He catches the ball. He'll definitely be more a part of our passing offense.
ball both discipline good physical players sides strong win
On both sides of the ball I see strong discipline, very good schemes, and players that play in a physical way. They play hard. That's why they win so often.
