ball both break dangerous gets great hall hands kick leader majority red return teddy terrific utilize weapon weapons zone
Teddy is a terrific weapon and we want to get the ball in his hands as often as possible, ... The majority of his play will come on offense, but he gets a great break on the ball so there will be times in the red zone where we will utilize him on defense, too. With Maurice Hall (the school's all-time leader in kick return yardage) gone, we will use him on both punt and kick returns. He and Santonio (Holmes) give us two very dangerous weapons back there.
both fast football fun good great question speed standpoint team teams watch
There's great speed out there on both sides. I feel good about the speed of our football team, and I see the speed of their football team on the video. Yeah, it's a match-up from that standpoint and I think it will be fun to watch because I like the way both teams play. I think it will be a fast game. I think there's no question about it.
apart ask both far football great played programs tradition twice
We played twice in the '30s and twice in the '90s and that's the end of it. We're not that far apart and with the great tradition of both football programs and both schools, what more could we ask for?
both field follow gives happening humility people
I think people want to follow humility and they want to follow production, and A.J. gives you both of those things. On the field he just has a sense to diagnose what's happening and then do the right thing.
based both contribute excited felt time turns
He's a competitor, he was excited out there and he wanted to make up for time missed. We felt that based on preparation and what we're doing, both (quarterbacks) could contribute to a win. As it turns out, when we put the film on, that very well could have happened. But it didn't.
ball both good next sides
Both sides of the ball did some good things. Now we've got to get better before next week.
both deserve exactly game good justin share shared work
Both Troy and Justin had good work today. ... They shared the reps and they'll probably share the game. Exactly who will play the first play and who will play the twelfth play, I'm not sure, but I think they both deserve to play in a big game like this and they will.
bothers excellent job mean might ted
It bothers you that he might be criticized. Does that mean I think he's been perfect? No. But I think Ted Ginn has done an excellent job for us.
both football planning stands starting
For this football game, as it stands right now, yeah, we've got two starting quarterbacks, ... We're planning to play both guys.
both game justin start work
If the first game was today, Justin would start and Troy would probably play significantly. We'll go into preseason where both Justin and Troy will get work with the first group.
based both contribute course guys time
I just thought, based upon who had had preparation over the course of time and where we were and what we were doing, that both guys could contribute to a win.
ability both lane promise shown three
and Maurice Wells will get some opportunities. And both Shaun Lane and Erik Haw have shown us that they've got some ability as well. So how many will we play, I couldn't promise you. I would say three or more.
We just thought that that was the way to go right at that point,
ball consistent evolve fact felt good season spread starting ten
We felt going into the Big Ten season if we could evolve to the fact where we always had a 100-yard back, then we could probably spread the ball around enough to have a good offense. We're starting to get consistent with that.
