They're so talent-laden that when they put their special teams together, they have terrific athletes in every spot. They're fast, they're explosive and they have terrific athletes at every spot. They've taken a bunch of great football players and when they get their chance to do something, they're making the most of it.
They have terrific athletes at every spot on special teams. They're fast. They're explosive. They're playmaking guys. They're not trying to do something to outsmart you. They just put guys in position where they can physically show their talents and they just overwhelm their opponents. They pose a tremendous threat.
That only makes sense to me. (Booty) feels terrific - he has no pain at all. To see John David feeling so good gives us the feeling he's going to jump out of this rehab. He wants to throw right now - he feels like he can throw right now.
It has been a great process, ... It has been really fun to put the thing together with the challenge of trying to replace really terrific football coaches. Now we have to go out and prove what we're all about. There is a lot of scrutiny and question marks that I think are valid, but I think this group is going to do a great job.
He was on the whole time. He was whipping it around all day and the protection was awesome for him. He just played a terrific game.
I really need to see that play again. I didn't even get a chance to look at the replay, but it looked like a phenomenal play. It looked like he got stuck up in a pile of guys and he was able to spin around and get back out to get going. It was just a terrific play by an amazing football player.
They have played really good football, and they have tons of highlights and good things to show, ... But they have been unable to get their win in the Pac-10. That just screams about the Pac-10 offenses. They bring in a terrific running back, a terrific receiver.
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.
