afraid amazing country fast game high last line loves nobody rose score seconds stretch year
Nobody in the country is better with the game on the line than Vince Young because he loves the high stakes, he loves the competition, and it's just amazing to me. I was afraid he was going to score too fast ? 19 seconds was a stretch there at the end. Last year (in the Rose Bowl) we got it to none.
easy high sitting
We are sitting up on a high pedestal, ... and a real easy target.
efficiency graduated highest lost next passing won
The other thing I would say about Vince Young is he just had the highest passing efficiency of any quarterback in the country. We're very complicated with what we do offensively, and he's won 30 and lost two. He would have graduated next fall.
backed great highlight talk trophy
We were into the wind, we were backed up, we were third-and-10 and what a great play, what a great run. Talk about Heisman Trophy winners. That's a highlight reel for a Heisman Trophy right there.
bush fun great guy highlight himself instant plays saw school statement three time watch watched
Reggie Bush is like an instant highlight film. It's fun to watch him. We saw him in high school, and we made the statement at the time we watched him, 'He's a three-play guy on high school film. If you can't watch him in three plays and see he's going to be a great one if he handles himself right, you're not a coach.' He was a three-play guy.
anybody burning college desire great hard highest hours level stays
Look at what he has accomplished at the highest level of college football. He's 27 hours away from graduation. He has done everything right on and off the field. He's got character. He's got intelligence. He's got a burning desire to succeed. He has a great heart. He competes as hard as anybody I've ever been around. There's no downside. If he stays healthy, he'll be one of the great ones to ever play.
beauty college comment eight elite goals high obviously placed possible season sure texas
His comment was, 'If there's going to be a poll, you'd like to be as high in it as possible because if there's going to be a beauty contest, you'd like to win,' ... One of the goals we had eight years ago was to make sure Texas is placed back in the elite of college football, and obviously this season we will be.
bottom chance doubt finish good great harder high polls rated rather since start teams top win wish year
If you're good enough to finish where you want to, and that's to win all your games, you'd rather start high because it's a lot harder now to come from the bottom to the top than it used to be. If you're out of the top 10 and some other teams have good seasons, you can have a great year like Auburn did and not have a chance to win it all. So there's no doubt that it's more important. I wish we started polls in October. Since we do not, I'd rather be rated high.
football high proud school texas
I'm proud of these kids. I'm proud of these coaches. High school football in Texas is unbelievable.
highlight history running
The highlight of our history was running the ball.
ball drives maturity move offense pass run throwing
We just need to move the ball, not necessarily run the ball. We've had seven-minute drives with Vince throwing it, so we know because of his maturity in the offense that we can move the ball with the run or the pass now.
defense proud run stop
We weren't real proud of our run defense. We'll try to stop the run first (against Baylor). If you can't stop the run, you've got problems.
awful chance cost mistake national win
I've told them if you get in trouble, you probably won't play. What an awful thing for you to make a 15-second mistake that cost yourself a chance to play or win a national championship.
athletic performance seen
I've never seen an athletic performance from a quarterback like Vince Young did tonight.
