Tonight the offense was just rolling. We finally got rolling in the turnover situation. We've been quiet lately. Stanford has been such a stingy team. We wanted to turn that thing around. To get five and give none, we loved that.
You heard what he said. He wants to play with his teammates, he loves being here, and there's no amount of money that could take that away from him. I think that's an extraordinary statement.
This offense needs an aggressive, big running back to build around the rest of what we do. I think that's really the formula for us. I love the downhill, hardball effect we can get from a big running back.
We're waiting to see what will happen with the running back spot. I loved the (fumbles) for our defensive side. The last week they've really gotten after it.
People make mistakes all the time. We learn and grow. If there's patience and love, and you care for people, you can work them through it, and they can find their greatest heights.
I'm so in love with this team. And I don't mind telling them that. They willed not to die. They wouldn't let it be over.
I love Larry Bird, but I don't agree with him. I love him and respect everything about him. I learned a long time ago, and I've made this statement: Coaches don't lose their expertise and ability to make the calls.
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.
