Williams is a very good defensive presence, sometimes we may happen to get beat, and he's there to take care of the work, and it gets us in a good flow in our defensive game.

I was thinking we had won a hard-fought battle, and I was going to celebrate.
I was in a groove, and I had to get it done.

We just did not compete and were second best in most things, although we did create five good chances only to miss them all.

We played like a veteran team, and that's what we expected from this squad this year. I was happy with our defense and our special teams, too - I thought we played very, very well.

We played hard. I think we showed a lot of toughness and I would like to think we showed America that, 'Hey, don't count us out.

I think more of us are interested in eating better.

Just knowing (Andrus) was able to run on her ankle is a confidence boost.
blocking breaks line low means offensive running runs
He's a big running back. He runs low and breaks tackles. We're a run-oriented offense. If he's running well and the offensive line is blocking well, that means we're doing well.
bring time
I bring my A-game every time - I'm pretty confident.
bring game plan regular teams
Basically, our game plan was to come out and be very aggressive. In the regular season...we let teams bring it to us, so we wanted to come out and bring it to the other team for once. We were just in a rhythm, and we got it going.
athletes clock eat field good helps offense run trap
If we get our trap going inside, it helps us a lot. We thought we'd run the ball, eat up the clock and keep their offense off the field because they have some good athletes on offense.
anybody
If we can put up with them, we can put up with anybody in the nation.
missing obviously
Obviously he was missing for most of the game. But when he's open, he's got to take it. He's a shooter.
