ball both field guy help periods stronger
They're both doing things at different periods that show you that they can be the guy to help us in that situation. Mike's got a little stronger arm, can get the ball down the field a little better and Ryan's experienced.
attitude chopping direction entire game momentum points swung team time wood
There were points in the game where the momentum could have swung in the other direction. It was the first time the entire team had a fighting, chopping wood attitude the entire game.
adjust game heck prepare run team
They're a team we really don't know a heck of a lot about so we just need to prepare for everything and adjust on the run as the game evolves.
athletic saying
And that's not even saying anything yet about his athletic ability.
biggest bowl complete football foundation guys laid move program
This is not a one-year stint; they laid the foundation for our football program to move forward. My biggest disappointment is for those guys because I wanted them to complete the experience, to be a bowl champion, not just a bowl participant. It's something that hasn't been done around here for 27 years. We'll be back.
backs beauty bringing competition everybody good head keeps knows running
Competition always keeps your head on straight. He knows Dimitri (Linton) is a good running back. He knows we're bringing in one of the better running backs in the country. That's the beauty of competition, right? It keeps everybody pressing on.
building continue expectation
I think the expectation levels, if they don't continue to rise, then we're not doing the right things in building this program.
difficult half incomplete question ran second trying wear
I think there's no question in the second half that we got tired. They made it more difficult on us. They ran a hurry-up no huddle even when they had an incomplete pass. I think they thought of trying to get us to wear down.
correct dangerous remains word
I think we can correct the mistakes, but the word can is a dangerous word. I think we will, but that remains to be seen.
class help next program recruit success winners
I think this class is really going to help this program take the next step. We wanted to recruit the 'State of Rutgers' and we feel we had success with that. There are a lot of winners in this class. This is a very well balanced, well-rounded class.
bowl goal history means since spring win won year
HISTORY' means the goal this year was to go make history and win a bowl game. Rutgers has never won a bowl game. So we'll try to make history. That's been (the goal) since spring ball.
define game last questions team week
We may still have as many questions after the game as we had before the game. But not much has changed. Last week we were 0-1, this week we're 1-1. This team still has to define itself.
afford brought eric guy
We have to adjust, certainly. That's one guy we couldn't afford to lose. What Eric brought was athleticism and speed.
bid bowl good program secure table
Right now, with where we are with this program ... we still have a lot of things that are out there on the table for us. One of them is to secure a bowl bid and play good football.
