cannot foolish opponent senior totally
A fifth-year senior quarterback cannot give the opponent a touchdown before the half. That's totally a foolish play we can't have.
asked major several
I've been asked several times, is he a major concern?,
balls huge plays
Sometimes you don't get the catches because you don't get the opportunities. We've got to get more balls their way. There doesn't have to be any big, intricate, huge things downfield. Just get it in their hands. And once we get the ball in their hands, we've got to make some big plays with it.

middle weakness
Sometimes it comes to you, and sometimes it doesn't. But I don't think there's a weakness at middle linebacker.
delivered expand huge package santa tree
Santa delivered a huge package under the tree and we may expand his package a little bit.
backs job nice pass protection running
The running backs did a nice job with pass protection and running the ball.
south stay talent
There's always been talent in South Florida, it just didn't stay here.
confidence encouraged frank fun knees major playing reason unless year
I've really been encouraged with Frank and what he's done. He's having a lot of fun and playing with a lot of confidence. I really see more confidence in his knees now than I did a year ago. From what I've seen, unless there's a major setback, I don't see any reason why he wouldn't play.
gets hot spirited
It was a little spirited today. It gets hot and tempers flare a little bit.
against few florida good hurt last special teams
Special teams really hurt us. We've been very good on special teams the last few years. Obviously, we weren't very good against Florida State.
definitely team work
Definitely some things have been improved. But without question, we've got a lot we can work on and we've got to get a lot better to be the team that we want to be.
corner expect good great player talented
Devin's going to be a great player for us and I just haven't been around a corner more talented than Devin Hester. And we expect him to be a really great corner. But again, he's been there one year. And let's understand, Marcus Maxey is very talented. He's an awfully good player or he wouldn't be there.
activities bowl football game spirit
That's not how we operate. As a football program, we don't condone activities such as that. Obviously, it detracts from the bowl game and what the spirit of football is all about.
