I felt like, looking at the season to this point, we probably haven't taken enough shots downfield to loosen things up,
It came down to me and Gully. We both had S, and it was going down to the wire, and I shot the old free throw with the eyes closed and put him away, ... It was the most dramatic game of H-O-R-S-E in the three-year history of the tournament, and I'm still the undefeated champion of H-O-R-S-E at my house.
I don't think it's unrealistic for us to have a shot at it in any given year. I don't think we're too far away, really.
I thought he looked a lot like Shane Matthews. It was kind of eerie how much he looked like him. He looked like Shane Matthews as a second- or third-year player, not the first shot out of the cannon.
I'm sure that's all being considered. I'm sure that's all being talked about.
I'm very disappointed and penalties for behavioral issues are going to be severe. Playing time is valuable to all players and it will be very limited to those who cannot conduct themselves in an appropriate manner.
I know the BCS games get a lot more attention throughout the bowl season. You usually get a lot more people talking about your game.
I know Ray was hurting bad, ... The trainers were working on him before every (series), basically. But he refused to stay out of the game.
I know that quarterback can run like a deer, that's for sure. Shockley's not quite the runner that he is. Shockley's athletic, but we won't have as many designed quarterback runs for him. A lot of that is because it's really not his nature and the other part is that we wanted to try to keep him healthy this year.
I'm really pleased with what they've done in the clutch. Field position, momentum and points. That's what those guys have meant for us.
Everyone knows his name now, but no one knows the blockers,
Everyone knew who David Pollack was, David Greene was. National-name guys. I don't know if we have a headliner on our team. We have a bunch of guys who are playing real hard, and together we've done a nice job.
It was his first start in a hostile environment, and he did pretty darned good.
It was just a great field position game, a great defensive battle. We had to stay patient, as much as we hated it, and let our special teams do their job -- then knock it in when we needed to.
