accept against beating blew chances finish florida games georgia good hard looking lose lost opening realizing season teams tech threw totally undefeated
We feel we should be undefeated right now. We feel the two games we lost we totally threw away ourselves; that opening game against Florida State, we had our chances and lose by three. We lost to Georgia Tech by four. And it had nothing to do with what other teams were doing. We just didn't play well. We just didn't get it done. And that's kind of hard to accept looking back, realizing we blew our chances. Now we have to finish up the season beating a good team in a big bowl.

beating grew math russians science seventh space teacher wish
I grew up in space times. In seventh grade, my teacher said we had to do math and science because the Russians were beating us in the space race. It was a real catalyst. I wish we had something like that today.
expect happen high past standard team time wants winning
Losing, it doesn't happen here. It's not accepted. That's just the way it is. Winning is the standard that's been set by the past teams, and each new team wants to live up to those standards. So expectations here are as high as ever. Every time we take the field, we expect to win.
rough
I had rough times. There were times that I wanted to give up and quit. Don't give up.

The partnership makes a commitment. You do your part and we'll do ours and not impoverish you.
asked college exams expected fail fear five frequent military pass whatever
It's like a combination of college and military training. It's not five star, you're not babied... I was expected to do whatever was asked of me. There are frequent exams and I was expected to pass the exams. I haven't had that in over 30 years, the fear we all have -- here's the test, I'd better not fail it.
change great hearts mound strikes throw week
It was a great week on the mound for us. Can't say enough about our pitchers. Their mind-set was to go after hitters, throw strikes and change speeds. They went out there and pitched on hearts and guts.
beat best game nights offensive
That (loss) was in the back of everyone's mind. We had to come out here and play an outstanding game to beat them. It was one of our best offensive nights of the year.

they both said to me that whatever I feel now about space I will feel better when I'm up there.

We're looking forward to the challenge. (Pendleton is) a really great team and they beat a really great East Lake team (to reach the finals). It will take a close to perfect game to win.

There was just that floating sensation. It was really magical.

Space is not for wimps. It's certainly not just writing a check.
