difference effort huge team tremendous win
We didn't let Marcus get comfortable today. It was an outstanding team win for us, just a tremendous effort by our defense. That was a huge difference in the game.
against team
You do that against our team and I don't think you'll have a lot of success.
added caught coming fell florida hard late league member normal punish teams
We have some say. Florida State, that's not a normal situation. That was added late in the process. Clemson fell as it fell with the 12th member of the league coming in. We and other teams were caught in a hard spot. It's not anything the league did to punish us.
extremely special teams
That was an extremely disappointing loss. Special teams really, really let us down tonight.
best chance team
Whichever team is able to make their quarterback better has the best chance of being successful.
certainly earn good team toward win
Certainly a good win for us. ... But I told our team be very complimentary toward Colorado. They really made us earn everything we got. Nothing easy.
best opportunity people soon sure team
I'd like to get the best people as soon as possible. This is about this team and these players, making sure they have the best opportunity to be successful.
maybe team
Maybe it was just (FSU's) time. Did we have the better team? I think we had the better team tonight. But you have to play better.
advantage build certainly challenge colorado coming glimpse good seize team time town tremendous week
We got a glimpse of what can happen, where we can be. And with a very good Colorado team coming to town with a week off, certainly we'll have a tremendous challenge there. But I think being at home, this is a time we've got to build on. We've got to take advantage of it. Seize the day.
chance good great guys player team
We have good players. Now who will be a great player or All-American? Some of those guys will be around here and have a chance to do those things if our team is good. If our team is not good, those things probably will disappear.
football missed team tells
Derrick hasn't missed anything. He's on time, he conscientious, he works. That tells me something. And it tells our football team something.
again elite football great hate opportunity season taste teams three track
It's great to end the season with a win. But again, we've got new resolve. We hate to end the season with three losses, that taste in our mouth. It's an opportunity to come back and really get back on track and again be one of the elite football teams in the country. That's what we expect.
assure last maybe team won year
We're a better team at 0-1 than we were at 1-0 a year ago, ... I can assure you of that. This is one, in my opinion, maybe we shouldn't have lost. Maybe we won one last year we shouldn't have won. But that's football. That's the way things go sometimes.
good team win
We know we have to play well every Saturday. I feel like that we've got a team that's potentially good enough to win every Saturday, but we've got to play well to do that.
