came felt game gave large margin nobody proved respect took win
I felt like we were going to win this game by a large margin when we came in. Nobody gave us any respect all year. We proved it. We took our respect.
came half last played remember second time tough
I can't remember the last time we came out and played that well. We didn't play that well in the first half, but in the second half we played as well as we had all season. When we play like that, we're tough to beat.
ball came felt full key saw turned
When I saw the ball go up, I felt like it was going to come off and I went full speed. It came right to me. It turned out to be the key play of the game.
came gave mentally ready second
We gave them the first game. We weren't mentally ready to play. The second game, it came down to the end. So we'll be ready now.
al ball came offensive rebound
Al tipped the ball off the offensive rebound and it came right to me.
awhile came foul head hit knew landed second took
I hit hard. I must have landed on my head because everything went blank. Everything was going every which way. It took awhile but everything came back to normal. I knew I wasn't going back in (in the first half) because it was my second foul anyway.
coming point prove proving ranked trying
We weren't even ranked coming into the season, so we're trying to prove a point. We want to keep proving that point - that we're for real.
florida national
We got our first national championship in Florida history. All the doubters, they just have to look at that.
played
We're very excited, especially after the way we played at their place. Now we get them in the O Dome. It's payback.
beat
We're very excited. Especially after the way they beat us at their place. So now they have to come into the O-Dome, and we've got to get our revenge. It's payback. You've got to win. It's a must win.
almost brothers hours living somebody spending
We see each other every day, almost the whole day. Living with guys, you get to know them real well. Basically, they're like my brothers now after living with somebody for two years and spending 20 hours out of the day with them.
chance class four hope people staying talk together
It would be a class that people would talk about for a long time. I think we have a chance (at staying together all four years). I hope so. That could be special.
gets lee opens shot
It was very important to get Lee going. Once he gets his shot going, everything else opens up.
felt helping
It was very frustrating because I just felt like I wasn't helping the team.
