easy great guys line ran underneath
The line did a great job. The receivers got open. I had an easy job. All I had to do was put it out there and those guys ran underneath it.
guy happen people questions run
You know, people see a guy who can run around and make things happen with his legs, and all of a sudden, he's not a quarterback. That's just the way people think. I can't be upset. Now, if Brett Favre was like that, those questions wouldn't even have arisen.
ask couple demeanor losing
You could see it in his demeanor that he wasn't used to this, ... He wasn't the same coach. A couple of times I had to ask him if he was having fun. He said, 'Mike, losing is never fun.'
beat drop four guys key three throw
You can't really just key in on one receiver, because now we have three or four guys that can beat you deep. Sometimes I drop back and I don't know who to throw it to, because they can all get open.
came definitely fans hands low obligation players somebody talks team turn
He always talks about 'I'm not going to put the team in somebody else's hands while we're at a low point. He definitely doesn't want to turn the team over and us not be good. I definitely feel he has an obligation to all the fans and the players who came before us. We feel the same way.
bad class focused great penn seasons seen senior state stay trying worst
I'm trying to stay focused on this game, focused on what we have to do. But this senior class has been through a lot. We've seen great seasons around here and we've seen a lot of bad seasons, some of the worst seasons in Penn State history.
drive felt halftime upset
That drive was all about heart. Derrick was kind of upset at halftime because he felt like he could do some things on the outside, but we weren't getting him the ball. I told him to be patient.
