adjusting best coach five game great halftime hall job passing plays running sees six win
Coach Hall does a great job of adjusting on game day. He's one of the best I've ever seen. He will come in at halftime and say, 'Look, here are five running plays and six passing plays and we'll do it and win the game.' He sees things very well.
efficient hang
We're going to have to play very efficient and mistake-free to be able to hang in there with those guys.
drafted earlier later rather
Would you rather get drafted later and play quarterback or get drafted earlier and play quarterback and some other things?

When I'd get through the hole, I was just trying to change my mindset to, 'Now you're a running back,'
bowl rose understand win
We didn't win the Rose Bowl or anything. It's just a game. I think we understand that.
next people process second telling
The process has been enjoyable, but at the same time, there is so much uncertainty. One day people are telling you you'll go in the second round. Next day people will say second day.
best coach coaches games great job players speed using
Our coaches have done a great job using what we have, and we have some speed on the outside, ... Coach Paterno said we were going to put the best players on the field. I've become a lot more comfortable under center, and the more games we play, the more comfortable I feel.

Reruns is not located in a typical retail environment. People are expecting to see a lawyer's office, not a kids' shop, in that part of town.
changed days eyes fortunate left playing prize since
Playing for Paterno is all good. Nothing has changed since the days we were losing. We never left our eyes off the prize and I'm just fortunate enough to be here as part of this team.
disgusted felt sad trip
Long, long trip home. Long, sad trip home. We felt disgusted with ourselves.
plays respect
I tell them all the time, you have to make plays first before we'll get any respect from a secondary.
spend
It is expensive, but as long as it's efficient, we'll spend the money.
certain death seemed tear wall
Stephne's death ... seemed to tear down a wall of a certain innocence,
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.
