bit calm hard hopefully improved pocket reads
We're working hard this week, and we will be improved in that area. Hopefully I can calm down just a little bit more in the pocket and go through my reads a little quicker.
bad hard judge might pick team
They know all our plays, so when we do things it might not look that bad in a game, so you just don't know. And we know their plays, so we pick up some of their blitzes that another team might not pick up. It's hard to judge right now.
becoming best coaches coaching country familiar far game great hard job offensive side skill year
He's had another year of becoming more familiar with the personnel, more familiar with what he has on the offensive side of the ball, but I think Galen is one of the best coaches in the country as far as coaching on game day. He does a great job making adjustments on the fly, and that's a hard skill to do.
focus forgotten mind night saturday thinking totally tough trying
It was tough all of Saturday night and all of Sunday, I was thinking about what we could have done differently, ... But now I've totally forgotten about it. I'm just trying to get it out of my mind and focus on Illinois.
feeling god great handle learned time tough
It was tough feeling like you could do some things better than the other guy, but at the same time it was tough on Zack Mills, too. He's a great quarterback, and I learned a lot from him. ... I just think that God put me here for a reason, and if I can handle this, I can handle anything.
against either tough
It was a long, long night. It was hard-hitting all the way. It was tough (for either team) to get anything going against the defenses.
coach mind respect senior
The senior class, we made up our mind in the off season. You know, Coach Paterno wasn't getting the respect he deserved.
definitely fill football player shown spots three
I've definitely shown that I'm a football player also. I can do other things. I can fill two or three roster spots with one person.
definitely mean question
It would definitely mean a lot. But that's a question, if things go our way on Saturday, that's probably a question for after the game.
fall safety
And when we fall back into our safety zone, we become complacent.
calm calms coaches early joke trouble
Especially early in the game, you feel that you can't get out of the trouble and you get impatient. The coaches would just tell me to calm down, they'd tell me a joke that's not that funny, and it calms me down.
happy people picked seven sixth ten top
People picked us to go sixth in the Big Ten, ... People said we should be happy with six or seven wins. Now we're on top of the Big Ten right now.
blocking great overall
Blocking downfield overall was great from the receivers.
born brings great physically players respond
The thing that's great about AZ is he brings so much to the field. He does everything well physically and he's just a born leader. The players respond to him.
