bit talk
I think that's something, as we go through the week, we talk about a little bit and think about,
bit bring good great open
I think Glennon does have a little bit of an edge. It's an open thing and we want to see some good competition. I think all our quarterbacks bring something to the table. It should be a great competition.
against backs bit depends exactly football great next nice people perform saying team trash wall week win
You kind of find out a lot about people when your backs are against the wall and people aren't saying nice things about you, people trash you a bit on TV, ... To come back and perform like we did against a great football team is a great win for the program. Exactly how big depends on what we do next week and the week after that.
bit leadership needs senior
I want his senior leadership with us, but I think he needs just a little bit more time,
bit great half three time unsure
It's the first time through for him, and he's a little bit unsure of some things, and I think you can see that a little bit on video. When we recruited him, I thought he was going to be a great player, and now that we've had him for three weeks, three and a half weeks, I know he's going to be a great player.
bit bringing couple half involved plays quite running second state teams
We called a couple more plays to get him running in the second half ... Other than that, as we go back and think about our offense, I think getting him more involved in that regard, and getting our receivers more involved when teams are bringing so much pressure, which N.C. State did quite a bit there in the second half.
balanced bit defense field football offense position quite short takes
You look at them, and they're a balanced football team, and their defense is very very good. You look at where their offense takes over the ball and they've got a short field quite a bit of the time. Field position is critical, and that comes back to their defense.
bit call ourselves tough
We battled back, but got ourselves in a little bit too much of a hole. We just couldn't get a call at the right time. It was just a tough night.
eye keeping step time
We're keeping an eye on Jimmy, but I think it's time for Brandon Frye to step up.
both determined game indication understand
We're fine. That game was no indication of the two teams. The (five Maryland) turnovers just got it different than what it really was. I think both of us understand that. I know they're going to be very determined to come back and get us.
against business coming heck next people proud ready stink talk week
We're getting ready to play Ohio. I don't think you talk about those. The players, that shouldn't even be an issue. I'm proud. I'm proud as heck of what people think of us and what's coming around, but I know this: In this business it's one week to the next, and if we go out there and stink it up against Ohio, (the media) will be writing about something else next week.
exactly full
We're not always doing things exactly right, but we're doing them full speed. When you're doing them full speed, you feel like you can get the other part of it right.
voting
We usually have four. The voting was so close, we went with all six.
enjoy men smart treat
We treat them like men and give them some time. You have to let them come here and enjoy Jacksonville and all the things here. But they have to be smart about it.
