amount both opponent time works wrinkles
It works both ways, your opponent also has the same amount of time, so there's always some new wrinkles and there's adjustments when you get there because of the amount of time you have to prepare.
ability effect effort evolved fatigue four game individual matter minutes quickness sustain time toughness
It's a matter of quickness, that's what this game has evolved to - quickness and toughness and ability to sustain an effort over 60 minutes and over four months. Any time you have too much weight, it has a fatigue effect on you, in an individual game and in the season.
athletes change college giving great increased kicking level obviously opportunity phase plays recent returning seen skilled special spent teams time tremendous
There's a lot of great athletes, skilled athletes that are returning punts, ... The one thing I've seen in recent years at the college level is a tremendous and significant change in special teams play. The time spent obviously has increased in that phase of the game, giving those skilled athletes the opportunity to make big plays in the kicking game.
creates great guys issues three time types
I think it's a great plus. Any time you can put two or three guys in there that have different types of abilities, I think it creates issues for the defense.
balance both challenge course difficult finds good great opens run surrounded ten time yards
I think they have great balance, and any time you have great balance, it's a much more difficult challenge to defend. Pittman has had an outstanding year; over 1,100 yards in ten games. I think he's tough, has great vision, finds the hole, and of course he's surrounded by a lot of good people. When you're complimented and you have the balance to both run and throw, then it opens everything up.
ahead course helps hope injuries knows puts team time understand
I'm certainly, during the course of a week, not always going to tell you about injuries because that puts our team at a disadvantage. I hope you understand that because if you don't, you should. Because, when a team knows ahead of time who's not going to play, that helps them.
guys time
For the guys that are going into it for the first time or the first time they're going to play in this game, there's a lot of things that they don't know yet and they're going to find out in a hurry,
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.
amount both huge last positions spent time work
The idea was he would work at both positions this spring, much as he did last fall. He spent a significant amount of time at the quarterback position. That's a huge disappointment for us.
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.
leave
It was a long night, leave it that way.
both changes hopefully sides unfold
There will be significant changes on both sides of the ball. That will unfold in the fall, and hopefully it will be obvious. The most important thing is it translates into performance.
