Our safety play has been outstanding. We haven't gotten too fancy, we have been able to play a good bit of zone coverage, allowing our front seven to hold up against the run.
A lot of people doubted his ability to handle the academic rigors at our school. He's proven he can do that and be a fantastic All-American football player and be a fantastic citizen. He's got a heart for young people. He wants to give back. He's just a great credit to this program and our university.
A lot of guys just really opened up, mostly seniors, and the players really responded in a very strong way, in an emotional way. You just felt the team being built. You felt a very strong bond. It looked like the ingredients were there, and you're thinking, 'We've got a chance to be pretty good here.' You just didn't know if it was going to equate into victories or not. So far it has.
A lot of this game will be trying to make adjustments as quickly as possible after we find out some of the goodies they've got ready for us.
There's definitely some differences in style. That may give us grief in terms of preparation.
A team that can put pressure on the quarterback without blitzing I'm more worried about than a team that blitzes. Blitzing teams are vulnerable to the big play.
about as pretty as I've seen. Maybe we should do that more often.
That's just more evidence that if one team is more ready to play than the other, it could be over by the second quarter.
They executed beautifully. I would have enjoyed watching them if I weren't coaching in this game.
This is their chance to get in during a game and do it when it counts. This is their chance to show the coaches that they deserve more playing time.
Dennis Roland has come so far it's unbelievable. As a freshman, he really did look like Bambi right after Bambi was first born, all spindly legs. We were hoping that he would develop into something, but I don't think we envisioned him growing into what he is now.
Any time I can just be dad is a good time,
Defensive guys can be, 'What the heck,' ... There was none of that. (From) coaches, there was none of that.
This is a deserving tribute for a special young man. All of our coaches will be in attendance, and we look forward to seeing D. J. and his family appropriately honored.
