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.

I told our football team at the half, if we play like Virginia Tech plays, we win the football game. That?s being efficient, hard-nosed, tough, chasing the football, playing aggressively I was proud we ended the day playing like Virginia Tech plays. I thought our kids gave great effort. They hung in there and kept battling and kept coming back.

Personal fouls, sloppy plays and penalties, that's not us. I'm glad we came back and played like us in the second half. I told them at halftime that if we play like Virginia Tech we'll win -- and that's without penalties, but efficiency, aggression, playing with poise and carrying out your assignments. Louisville did a great job. We were lucky to win. We played more like Virginia Tech in the second half and I was proud of that. We gave great effort.
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.
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.

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.

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.

We'll see what took place and I'll talk with everyone about what happened before I make any more statements.

Ore had the numbers in that last game, both of them have done very well in practice. I've been pleased with the way both of those guys have performed.
ball bell george good ground quickness
Ore had some good runs. He put the ball on the ground one time, but I thought he showed some quickness through the hole. And I thought George Bell showed some good ability, too.
