college early grew plenty problem teammates word
You know, I grew up in the early '70s in college and I had plenty of teammates who had a little hair. I don't have a problem with that, as long as they look -- I don't know what the right word is -- as long as they look sharp.

What is important about them, ... is that not only do they win, but they win with class. They represent college football very well.

allow attack bit college evolution football good guys hit league people pros quite spread throw
I think in this day and age, you've got to be able to attack with a lot of different things. There are so many good guys out there that can throw and catch, and the evolution of football -- there's so many good ideas. Sometimes, things trickle down a little bit from the pros. Now, the pros don't allow their quarterback to get hit quite as much as we do in college football in our spread offenses and so forth, but I just think because people are so well-schooled on defense, you've got to give them more problems. I think if you have that as part of your package, it can give you a chance. Some of the people in our league do it very, very well.

ball consistent evolve fact felt good season spread starting ten

We certainly appreciate what those young men and women are doing for our country.

We're going into this week with the thought in mind that Troy will be the quarterback and have the most significant number of reps in practice, perhaps 75 percent to 80 percent.
capable chance
I've said many, many times that if you have two quarterbacks capable of being champions, you have a chance to be a champion, ... I think we have that.
