We will have to wait and see when he gets to practice today. There is no damage at all to his knee, it is sore from getting banged on it, but he is going to practice today. We will ease him through the week until he is feeling 100%. He might feel 100% today. He is real encouraged, and I am not really concerned about it.
It kind of looked like it might have been a little historic the way it finished up, ... for everybody that watches those classic channels and all.
We might have come out a little early. It's still soft and soggy.
He might have played the best of all the safeties in the first game.
You can watch our players. He has generated this tremendous level of effort by our linemen and our receivers because they don't know where he's going to wind up, and they're convinced when he's running the football it might be to right where they are. Nobody wants to be embarrassed by not having a full level of effort on the play.
We've been talking, and we had a more significant discussion (Wednesday). That is why I am willing to say something in a general sense. There are no details to give. We're in great shape, and things worked out really nice.
We just could not stop him. Vince Young is just an extraordinary football player.
We just missed each other out there. I don't think anyone was mad at each other. I was more upset that our defense gave up all those passing yards in the fourth quarter. I don't think there's a problem.
We feel very fortunate to be in this situation at this time of year. It's a beautiful time to be coaching and playing football. This is the situation we all hope for. We all want to get in the Rose Bowl. The situation this year is a little different.
I've never understood how two-thirds of the thing can vote for you one way and one third can knock you into fourth place. It looks like it should be third, third, third, but that's my simple math.
It would be awesome to go a couple more games and have a chance to be in a position like that. I know their fans and their followers have just got to be loving it.
It was a championship night in all ways. These two teams battled until the finish.
I still don't know how the BCS rankings really work, except that computers are involved, ... And I don't know how you get mad at a computer.
I spent plenty of time in the NFL. I don't care about any of those (NFL) opportunities. They don't fit me right now.
