bowl complain four great january run wins
It's been such a great run - 38 wins in four years and four January bowl games. We don't have a lot to complain about.
america beauty places
It's just completely two different worlds. But that's the beauty of America; you can come from different places and you can end up in the same place.
field four front good improve last ourselves together
It's been good having Abdul here this week. We've been together for the last four years. We've complemented each other on the field over the years at Iowa, but this week, we're here to improve ourselves in front of the NFL.
attention audience credit fact national paying sick start
We're getting sick of the fact that nationally we don't get a lot of credit. I really think the national audience is going to have to start paying attention to us at some time.
college deal easy hurts last
It hurts a lot. The last play of my college career, to end like that, it's not going to be easy to deal with.
defense mistakes needs satisfied shore team
We're a team that needs to improve. That's what we know we are. We're a team that isn't satisfied with where we're at. We're a team that makes too many mistakes on defense and we need to shore that up.
came cover faster move safety saw skills weigh worked
They kind of saw that and I think they really thought I could take my cover skills as a safety and move them to linebacker, and it worked out perfectly. I weigh 245, and I'm actually a lot faster than I was when I came here.
athletics whatever
They recruited me as an athlete. Whatever that means.
best definitely exact factor games happened ironic last majority pride situation win
There was definitely a sense, a pride factor after the game, that we have a chance. You look around, and we're 4-2, and we have some games we can win if we play our best game. If we play like we did Saturday, we can win the majority of our games we have left. It's ironic how it happened last year, but it's the exact same situation we're in right now.
build continue seen team
I think there was a team camaraderie we hadn't seen yet this year. It's something we know we have in us now and we can continue to build off.
couple seems
He seems really tough. A couple of times, I teed off on him, but he got right back up and made a big play.
barks change heart notice
When he does say something to you, you've got to take it to heart. It's not very often that he comes around and barks orders. When he does that, you'd better take notice and change something quick.
adjust blame call certain defense game happen since weird year
We have to adjust our defense to a certain play. We've done it every year since I've been here. It was really ridiculous, the call. You can't blame a game on the ref. You can't do it. It was just really weird to have that call happen because if you adjust your defense you have to do it. What do you want us to do?
came national
He didn't come here with all this national respect. He didn't have (crap) when he came here, and he made it.
