We're basically back to where we were last year. Matt Kubik will start based on the fact he played the most last year. Donald Allen will play early on and we'll leave it at that and see where we go from there.
diversion everybody fact gets good huge knows mere
It'll be a good diversion for everyone. Each day gets better. Just the mere fact that everybody knows about everybody now is a huge thing and a big relief.
appreciate became bed dorm fact four hot meals people room simple team thankful three walls
The fact that the team really pitched in, I think the people up here appreciate that. One thing I know for sure, you appreciate what you have. A simple dorm room became everything. Just being able to have a bed and three hot meals and four walls and a roof, that's something to really be thankful for.
best fact gift mean played price program tag terry
You can't put a price tag on something like this. This is probably the most significant gift of this kind to any program in America, and by probably the best quarterback to ever play the game. It's one thing to say Terry Bradshaw played here, but the fact that you can see that tangibly now will mean so much for years to come.
both calling good people physically players priority stress success tried
We've tried to stress to our players that they shouldn't think the worst. No one is having any success calling people in these areas. Our No. 1 priority is the well-being both physically and emotionally of these young men. This just wouldn't have been a good day to practice.
game usc watched
I watched the USC game and said, 'Oh my god. To come out here to this place and do this is unbelievable.
good physically practicing shape
I still think that we're in good shape physically and mentally. We've just been practicing a lot at night, because that's when we'll play most of our games.
both game nine
That was two turnovers down in our own end that put the game out of reach. And both of those, nine out of 10 times aren't going to happen.
beverage brian chad freshman freshmen good great help maybe player ready sign true white
That was a great catch, ... He's going to be a good player and is another freshman who we have to try and get on the field. We have some true freshmen like Wheeler, Harrison, Jackson, Brown, and maybe even Chad Beverage and Brian White who can help us this year. We have more true freshman ready to go than I ever remember, and that's a sign of good recruiting.
field great last sack
That was big. That last sack (by Cooks) and not getting at least a field goal. It was a great opportunity, we just didn't get it done.
last week
Last week was just a mess; it was just terrible,
against along bad base farther good healthy mainly offense overall players point ready saw sure trying understanding
Overall we saw some good things and some bad things, just like you do every scrimmage, ... The good thing is that I feel like we're farther along at this point than we've been in the past, mainly because we have a better understanding of our base offense and defense. The players are comfortable with what we're trying to do, so now we just have to try to make sure everyone is healthy and ready to go against Florida.
effort great handle smarter
I think we're smarter than that. I know this: We better have a great effort and handle ourselves. If not, we'll get beat.
absolutely ball prefer throw
I would prefer to throw the ball and then set up the run. If you can't throw the ball, you're absolutely dead.
