against trophy
I want the Heisman Trophy winner. I feel I'm the best, so I want to go against the best.
best coverage covering defense situation tight whatever
I want to be put in the best situation for our defense to be successful. Whatever coverage area, I'll do it. If it's covering (USC tight end Dominique) Byrd, then I'll do it.
national stereotype texas until win
There's always the stereotype that Texas can't win the big game. Until we win a national championship, there's always going to be doubters.
covering deep free outside safety strong
I was deep free safety, or I was strong safety in the box, or covering the slot, or outside covering. I was all over the place.
talks
Jimmy's different. He kind of talks all the time. But it's all in fun.
blitz breed cover field middle safety stay
I think it's kind of a new breed of safety. Safeties have to do more than just stay in the middle of the field and hit. Now, they have to cover and blitz and do it all, and that's what I like to do.
agree downhill lack nobody stepped
I agree (with Young). It was a lack of leadership. Things started to go downhill and nobody stepped up.
anywhere contain line quick run shake start
He can start anywhere else in the nation. We know we have to contain him when he's in the game, because he'll line up and run over you. He's quick for a big guy. He'll shake you now and then.
fully understanding
He'll never know, I guess, fully what we go through. But I think he has a lot better understanding.
criticize love national people playing
People love to criticize him for being too nice, but he has loosened up around us. Now here we are playing for a national championship. He must be doing something right.
good guess held three
I held him to three for 19, so I guess I had a pretty good day.
carry draft high picks
Hopefully, I can carry on that tradition. And hopefully, safeties are high draft picks from now on.
beautiful believe buffalo handle miami next palm snow sunny surrounded trees warm weather welcome
In Miami, the weather was beautiful and sunny with palm trees everywhere. I was surrounded by snow and icy weather in Buffalo the next day. I couldn't believe the difference. ... I know I can handle the snow if I end up in Buffalo or Detroit, but I do have to say, the warm and sunny weather in Miami was a welcome sight.
beaten particular somebody
You can't take away any one particular thing. If you could, somebody would have beaten them by now.
