expect football game mistakes red win
We just made too many mistakes in the red zone. You can't get the football down there and give it away like we did and expect to win a game like this.
effort fight football found good liked lost offensive standpoint talented took
We lost a football game, but I think we found a defense. I liked the way we played, from a standpoint of effort and aggressiveness. I thought we were very physical. I thought we took the fight to Notre Dame. They're a very talented offensive football team. (But) there's nothing good about losing. Nothing.
football found lost
We lost a football game, but I think we found a defense.
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.
defense football good
I think if you take one play out of the football game, our defense did a very good job,
biggest certainly football high mario maybe player surprised
I think certainly it was maybe the biggest play of our season, but I'm not surprised that Mario is the outstanding football player that he displayed in high school,
bowl college football forward game happen maybe means playoff regular season sure tradition
I think one of the things that's important in maintaining the tradition of college football is making sure every game of the regular season means something, and the bowl tradition is something we should never give up. But if there is a way of going to a one-game playoff after the bowls, that's something that should maybe happen as we go forward here.
excuses football injury team unlucky
We don't make any excuses and never will, but we've been a very unlucky football team from an injury standpoint.
five football lose ninth run rushing ten
When I look back on it, we were ninth in the Big Ten in rushing offense. That's how you lose five games. You better be able to run the football and then you have a chance.
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.
ability college easy football four spread stop
Defensively we have to find a way to keep them out of the end zone. College football has changed. Everyone has the ability to spread you out and it's not easy to stop them for four downs.
expect football game mistakes red win work
Offensively, we just made too many mistakes in the red zone. You can't get the football down there and give it away like we did and expect to win a game like this. So we've got a lot of work to do there.
challenged despite football fought impressed played proud
I thought our team, despite some of the things we were challenged with, fought back and played through some adversity, and I'm proud of this football team. I think the thing I've been impressed with is how we've competed.
both dame fact football men
I think because of the fact that both of those men were ADs, as well as the football coach, we didn't play Notre Dame for a long time.
