country led lost passing run won
Vince is very intelligent. He led the country in passing efficiency, we run a complicated offense, and he won 30 (games) and lost two (in his career).
coach deserving few game guy joe last overcame overcome program question turn won year
Usually the coach of the year is the guy that overcame something. We didn't overcome anything. We just won a big game at the end and we hadn't been doing that. For Joe to do what he's done over the last few years and turn his program completely around is really, really special. I don't think there's any question he's deserving of this award.
best chris class country finished life passing people ranked recruiting starts takes won
I would say if you're ranked No. 1, you better be really good, because it takes on a life of its own. Everyone complained that we had the best recruiting class in country but we only won 10 games. I said, 'Yeah, I know, we were terrible.' Chris Simms finished as the school's all-time passing leader, Cory Redding starts for Detroit, and some people think that class wasn't a success.
football games next team texas win won
Next year's team hasn't won a game. There's not going to be another Vince Young. We can win football games at Texas because we won them before Vince got here, and we'll win them afterwards.
fourth game lose quarter scores sitting straight team won
It was really surreal, when you're sitting there in the fourth quarter and you're down by two scores to a team who had won 34 straight game and still think you're going to win. We never ever really thought we would lose the ballgame.
defense fourth lose momentum playing quarter sitting straight surreal team won
It was really surreal when we were sitting in the fourth quarter and we were down by two scores, and you think you're going to win. You're playing a team that has won 34 straight games, and momentum is turning, and your defense is struggling. But we never thought we would lose the ballgame.
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.
enjoy next practice ready run spring start team won
What we're going to do is enjoy this run right now. We'll be in spring practice Feb. 24 and get ready to start over because next year's team hasn't won a game.
games talk won
When I got here, we won the first two games and there really wasn't much talk about (the series),
games guy straight won
This guy won 30 straight games in the 1960s and I wanted to get you two together.
coach games great jim problems won year
Jim is a great coach who has won more games than I have. I've got my own problems this year ... having two great quarterbacks isn't a problem.
country enjoy message running teams top won
The message is we are one of the top two teams in the country. We won by 62, and that's without running it up. We have to enjoy this ride, enjoy this moment.
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.
