anybody football goals good happened lost program stage teams unless
Every program has goals and you have to decide, do you still have the same goals, because when you look around at what's happened in the first two weeks, a lot of very good football teams have lost. I don't think at this stage anybody is out of anything unless you've lost two games.
anybody competition conference respect success understand
We all understand the competitiveness of that conference and their success in competition with the Big Ten. I don't know anybody out there, as a coach, who doesn't have respect for the Mid-American Conference.
anybody loafing run
If there would have been anybody loafing there, we wouldn't have run them down.
anybody bowl history last national nebraska won
You look back at the last 30 years, and they've won more national championships than anybody in the country. We have a history with Nebraska going back to the (1986) Fiesta Bowl and, of course, the '97 co-national championship.
anybody best considered football great high offensive played point start talented tough
At some point he will be considered with the very, very best offensive linemen that have ever played here and that's high praise. He is so talented athletically and he is so tough mentally. For anybody who was going to start a football team, Jake Long would be a great place to start.
anybody compliment forward goals high higher players program ranked time trying worry
I don't worry about the polls, but I think any time you're ranked high it's a compliment to your players and your program and it's challenging and we look forward to trying to do better. We have our own goals and they can't be any higher than anybody else's goals for us.
anybody asked certainly conversation happen player program season sure wants
I've interviewed every player on our team, and that's always part of the conversation. There's a lot of things that certainly should be motivating. I don't think there's anybody in this program that wants to go through that kind of season again. I think they'll do everything that they're asked to do to make sure that it doesn't happen again.
win
This was an awfully important win for this team. We've been awfully inconsistent.
chance college felt front growing move opportunity
When you have an opportunity to go in front of the media, there's always a chance to make mistakes. It's part of the growing process, part of the college experience. He felt really badly. It's just one of those things that happen, and you move on.
changed control hard nobody ohio played playing pressure state tempo throw trouble
We thought if we get control of the game, Ohio State would have trouble playing from behind, but they played very well from behind. Nobody ever would have thought they would throw for that kind of yardage, but they changed the tempo of the game, they made it very hard for us to pressure the quarterback.
create great opportunity
With any change, there's great enthusiasm. It does create an opportunity for change, and new ideas, so I think it is going to be very good.
defense fourth last space
When you look at what he did in the fourth quarter, there was not a lot of space in that defense on the last drive.
good plays poor progress throws
Being a quarterback is a process. And I think he made a lot of progress. I think he made some very good throws out there today, then he had some very poor plays that he'd like to have back.
everybody resolute season turn
Everybody is disappointed. And yet everybody is resolute to try to do the things we need to do to turn the season around.
