Last year, they played a bunch of close games. Learning how to win doesn't happen overnight. Coach (Bobby) Johnson has done a good job of teaching that in a real methodical way.
I think we've been taking Bennett for granted around here a long time. He's made those kicks in the games we've been winning. Gosh, you take nine points right there we've got a chance to win the game.
It always helps in recruiting to a certain degree. To finish in the top 10 four straight years is exciting, and we think 10 wins is a pretty good benchmark.
We're just very thankful that it looks like he'll be back for the Auburn game and be able to finish his senior year the way we were hoping he could, ... In the meantime, we've got to find a way to win without him.
We know what it feels liked to be here and win it, and we know what it feels like to be here and lose it.
We have an opportunity this week, if we can find some way to win it, to clinch the Eastern Division. I don't know if that's going to happen or not. We just have to take inventory of who can play right now.
It was a little bit surreal to look up and see what the score was that early in the game, ... I thought we could win the game. I didn't necessarily think we could do it in that fashion.
It's a lot more fun to be in it than not, and it's a lot more fun to win it than lose it.
It's been talked about a lot, probably more than most (openers) for us, and that's because we're playing a great team. It's a team that wins almost every time they play.
Winning 9 games is very respectable.
The only thing that helps you win the game is preparation and getting your mind ready to go to battle. That's what you've got to do.
There are a couple key offensive tackles I would love to have at this point.
When D.J. first got hurt, it was sad. We didn't know how bad, he didn't know how bad it was. We were thinking his career at Georgia could be over right then and there. That would have been awful. We would have tried to sugarcoat it as best we could, but it would have been sad for him and for us.
We kept our poise. We stayed united. No finger pointing when bad things happened.
