came carrying gave glad great halftime louisville lucky personal played playing plays poise proud second sloppy tech virginia win

behind control humble winning
I like it when a Vick is behind that center. They're winning kids. They're humble kids. They've got a lot of ability. You like being around them. They're in control on the field. That's about everything you like out of a quarterback.
ability good knew people program proud
I'm proud that we demonstrated to the ACC that we were a good pick. We've got the ability to be a good program for them. I think they knew that, but I think a lot of people didn't think we were going to be that this year.
athletic bucks million problem start talking
It's not a problem to me. When you start talking about 20 million bucks for your athletic department, that's pretty significant.
Every one of them has been good, I think.
avenue east gave television
The Big East was the change. We wouldn't have made it without the Big East. It gave us the avenue to television and to the bowls.

They just whacked us and socked us and got after us. Hopefully, we're going to be better prepared to go against a great defense this time around.
