I've always tried to be the person who says things no one else wants to say. I've always kept it in house, as opposed to going to the papers.
I just want my sign and I want to throw it. I think it keeps everybody on their toes.
My cutter has been key for me, and my curveball. I've been able to spot them where I want to spot them.
When I came to Ole Miss, everyone expected me to bring the program back to its glory days. I didn't want to put that kind of pressure on myself.
No, we believed in ourselves all year. That's the position you want to be in.
I've always been a player and a person who wanted to be the best at whatever he did.
He wants to play. He is a competitor, so I know he will do everything he can to get ready for this game.
Every game he just makes so many outstanding plays for us. Not only with his runs, but with his pass receiving. He?s our work horse and we are going to keep feeding him.
That was not the way I wanted to come out and play. It was disappointing, especially the way the offense played this season. We couldn't hit any big plays or establish anything to build on. They did a good job, but I still didn't protect the ball, and that's what it comes down to in big games.
That's been one of our goals from the beginning of the season and it would be a big accomplishment for this team. It's been in our sights the past couple of weeks and now it's here for us to have if we want it. It's just a matter of whether we can go out there and play football well enough.
Nobody had many catches. There's no doubt, we gotta get him some catches.
Peyton and I aren't competitive with each other. We root for each other to do well. Last year was the first time we've ever been in the same league and playing at the same time. I'm always glad for him when he plays well and they're winning.
My arm feels fine. You still have to be aggressive, but if something's ugly and not there, you can't force it in.
We had a chance to do it, but obviously, we didn't. We've got another chance next week, and hopefully, we'll do a better performance.
