I don't think we compare quite to the accomplishments they had. That was definitely the greatest four-year period in Georgia history. ... We can't match the three SEC championships and the national championship.
He's never really been in this type of game before where he was the starter and where he really had to fight the adverse conditions. He handled it like a champion. He did not flinch.
He's got as strong of an arm as anybody I've coached,
I'm not sure about our tight end situation yet.
I'm proud of our guys. You always wonder how your team is going to react to some adversity. We were losing at the half, but the guys did a great job of doing what they had to do to win. Some people may not think it's a beautiful victory, but it is to me.
I'm real excited about this class, mainly because of the numbers. We really covered every major position other than the kickers. If these guys unite as a team, behave like they should and work hard like they should, we should be something special three or four years down the road.
We are going to Baton Rouge and one of the most storied stadiums in the country, a place I can truthfully say is the loudest place I've ever been.
It's some of our guys' first game on the road, and it really can jolt your body.
I felt like looking at the season to this point, we probably hadn't taken enough shots downfield to loosen thing up, ... It does serve a purpose even if you don't hit it. There's nothing that will get a cornerback to back off a little bit than knowing he got beat even if you hit it or not.
I didn't know I got criticism.
A.J. Bryant is a player waiting to happen. If he gets a little confidence going and a couple of catches, he can really do some big things for us.
The guy that's holding the ball gets hit a lot. Sometimes he gets banged up. We feel very comfortable with Jason.
Usually when the opposing team does well, the crowd quiets down. All I began to hear was a chant 'L-S-U, L-S-U.' It got louder and louder and louder. It was the loudest I've ever heard a stadium.
It's no fun to lose, ... We haven't lost in a while and now we get to remember what it feels like. Everybody wants to be undefeated and that's what we wanted. There are no excuses.
