answered emotional game happy last loss questions supposed sure win
I'm happy we rebounded from a very emotional loss last week. I'm happy that we could go out and win a game we were supposed to. Having said that, I'm not sure we answered any questions after the game that we had before the game.
completed continue emotional feeling football game games great happy offense pleased point rebound strength supposed won
I'm happy that we were able to rebound from a very emotional loss. We went out and won a game that we were supposed to win. It's a great feeling at this point in the program. Offensively, I am pleased that we have completed two games without a turnover. Our offense is the strength of our football team. And we need to keep slugging away, and continue to get better and better.
definitely easy filled game nfl opening prepare special staff
There definitely will be some special plays. It's never easy to prepare for an opening game with a new staff filled with NFL experience.
against game happens win
Every game is its own game. We need to win this game. It happens to be against Connecticut.
across country football games half lost move second seemed won
Things went our way in the first half, and it seemed we could do no wrong. In the second half it was tougher. But that's the way football games are won and lost across the country every week. In the end it was 37-29 Rutgers, and we move on.
backs best conference flip game good healthy line pass perhaps plans prepare running side
We don't know what Connecticut plans to do with him offensively. The flip side is their line is healthy and they have some of the best running backs in the conference and perhaps in the country. I think they're going to do what they do in the run game because they're very good at it. What they end up doing in the pass game, that's probably yet to be seen. We need to prepare for everything.
awhile football game heck involved means saturday ton
It's been awhile that we were involved in a game like this. Not that it means a heck of a lot, because at the end of Saturday there's still a ton of football to play.
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.
against best defense efficient game good guys maintain mean passing possession push ready running
We're going to do our best to maintain possession of the football. It doesn't mean just running the ball, but being efficient in our passing game and play a little keep away. That is part of our plan. But when push comes to shove, we need to play defense against a very good offense, and our guys are ready to do that.
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.
team winning games
We may still have as many questions after the game as we did before the game. But that's OK. Good teams answer their questions as they go, but they do it with wins. We didn't get it done last week - we found a way to get it done this week.
game greatest
The greatest in their game have their off days.
ball beginning early good hand hard judge leaves mike ran ray threw
Once that ball leaves the hand of anybody, it's hard to judge it. But early on, when we were going with the wind, I thought Mike threw some good balls. I did see Ray at the beginning of the game, and he ran the ball well.
