They looked great against Arizona State and great against UCLA, save the last eight minutes of the game.
I have great respect for what he's done. We've played against each other, and I think it's really cool that we have this chance to match up again. This is the first time we've gone head to head as head coaches.
It's a race against time once we get back to camp with the young kids and the running backs and figuring out the quarterback situation, so it'll be very exciting. Arkansas is what's next up, and we're aware of it.
I'm concerned, ... When you play against good competition, those can be factors that set the tempo of the game for you. That has happened to us in the past three weeks. Hopefully we can rid ourselves of that. But I'm not dwelling on it, or thinking that it is the kind of team we are.
I'm sure the place is going to be nuts -- it's a tremendous place to play,
I'm proud that we're showing how important it is to have well-rounded kids in this program, kids who want to play football at the highest level and also want to take care of their academics. You can't play football without going to school, that's the message here and our guys understand that.
It's so common for people to think that once you've accomplished something to get complacent. But I don't see that in any of our players. I don't see it in Matt.
It's so great to be standing in front of you representing what this university has always been about: winning championships, national championships.
It's so frustrating for him. He's been waiting for his chance. I feel terrible for him.
It's not exactly how you'd like it, ... but when you play a top-10 team, you have to expect it.
That happened in a flash. He was up and over him. I don't even know how you can measure that time frame. He has extraordinary reactions.
That is what it takes to disrupt a rhythm.
It was just an OK game for us. But we got through the first game. Now we go watch the tape, go back to work. About a month from now we should be all right.
They will not let it die, ... They won't call it over.
