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.
We couldn't tell in the first half what happened and we wanted to find out, so we just ran it,
We couldn't stop them, and the quarterback ran all over the place.
Well, we couldn't stop them when we had to. The quarterback ran all over the place. This is their night. It's wonderful doing what we've been doing. We didn't get it done.
That quarterback just ran all over the place. He made the difference. This is their night. Hats off to 'em.
When he was at Louisville, I ran into him at the airport one time when we were going opposite directions and we kind of reunited and hooked back up.
He ran better (Wednesday), but not well enough to run in practice. I am going to challenge him to come out tomorrow and go. If he is ready to do that, we will see how he does.
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.
