against earned enjoy fight fun game good great group happen helped hype kid nervous odds ohio position stadium state time totally understand unless walking week
It helped us understand that all of the hype around the game is totally unimportant unless you enjoy it. Don't fight it and don't get nervous about it: enjoy it. I had a great time the week of the Ohio State game. I had never been to that stadium and I was like a kid walking in there like a fan. It was fun for our group to have all the odds against us because that doesn't happen very much for us. And that's where we are again. We've earned the right to be here but the odds are against us. And that's a good position for us to be in.

coaches selfish talk
It's not about me. It would be so selfish for coaches to talk about this being about them.
anyone factual guy number point poorly reporting riding
So anyone who is reporting that he did that poorly is wrong, point blank, because I called and asked. I was told it's not true. So it's unprofessional and really, really poor for someone to be reporting a number that they don't know is factual that I know is not factual when a young guy has so much riding on it in the future.

At times, we didn't play very good. But we played hard and we believed and we played with confidence. Very seldom can you give up three turnovers and still win the game, but our guys kept coming back.
