We went for the win right there and didn't convert. We felt like we could run it and were inches short.
Right now we're right where I hoped we were going to be when I made my decision. But I feel like this has been the best time of my life, these last four or five years, and Wednesday is kind of the culmination.
Personally, I'd go. I'd go to the NFL.
I've never even gone on that site. It's a cool idea, but I don't want to put myself out there.
That's what it's all about, ... It's coming to South Bend, Indiana. One of the best rivalries in college football coming down to the last second on a QB sneak trying to get in the end zone.
Who knows what can happen? I watched a lot of (Texas') games during the season, and Vince is just a freakish athlete. He's big and fast, and those are hard to find. He showed what he's capable of doing. I think highly of him and wish him all the best.
I won it last year and he deserved to win it. Obviously, his play on the field shows why he's the best college football player in the country. Playing really big in the big games and becoming more of a leader, he's a perfect description of a Heisman Trophy winner.
We were struggling. We were just bad, a bad football team in Coach Carroll's first year.
If we can win one more game, then we can make a pretty good argument.
I don't have any regrets. We're champions. They just got us this night.
LenDale is so big and so fast, and he just wears on the defense. He's a great complement to a guy like Reggie. He can catch the ball, he can run after the catch, he can run after his carries. He just does everything well. He's a terrific back and a big part of why we've been so successful.
We've just got to go. We went for the win right there and to keep the clock going.
With the combined team of CAA, Chuck, Leigh, and Air 7, I am confident that my business affairs are in the very best hands. This gives me the freedom to focus on becoming the best football player I can be.
We really don't care about the BCS. We'll care about it when there's one game left. It's important for us to start the game really fast, and they didn't stop us all game.
