answers defend expand matter package tried wrinkles
If you have enough wrinkles and you have enough answers for the way they defend you, that's what's important. That's why we've tried to expand our package. We have enough in our package to have all the answers. It's just a matter of execution.
anxious areas bowl everybody games guys last love played run team
Hey, we have a lot of guys back. And we can't run guys out of here. They love going to bowl games and getting those gifts. But I am approaching it the same. I am anxious to see how much better our guys can get. Everybody that we played (in the Big East) had a young team last year. We played pretty well, but there are always areas to improve.
couple hard mistakes player runs
He still made a couple of mistakes, but not as many as a first-year player usually makes. He has the right temperament for that position. He runs hard and he has a burst.
football georgia good home people playing
I don't know how those people come up with that and I don't want to know. Georgia should be the favorites. They are a very good football team. We are playing them in their home state.

He (Slaton) has worked very hard. We liked him the very first time we saw him. Even after he committed to come here and heard about the other recruits, he continued to work and you are seeing the results on the field.

He's an explosive player. We've really been on him about making one cut and then running. He did that today and he really made it work.
five guys ok six
There has been a lot made of our depth. I think we're OK depth-wise. I don't know if we are overloaded. But I think we can get five or six guys in there pretty good.
both extra looking ready thinking
We're not ready, but we're more ready every day. If I tell both they will play, they will play. But I don't want them looking over their shoulder, either, thinking they will come out with one mistake. Both give us an extra dimension.

We will certainly miss Pac Man as a player and as a valued member of the Mountaineer football family, but I certainly understand his decision.
best defense miami played
We've played Miami when they've had some of the top-ranked defenses in the country. This is the best defense we've seen, period.
nice rubber
This will be the rubber match, so it will be nice to try to get on the top. That will be an upset, for sure.
fast guys taken
When you have two fast guys, and they get a crease they can make things happen. I think it's taken a while for our guys to get comfortable, but I think they are now.
coach cut great hit last press secondary team
When you play a team that's got a great secondary with great speed, you can't make a lot of moves. Coach (Calvin) Magee and I were on him the last two weeks, 'Steve, press the blocks, make one cut and just hit it.' And he did that today.
aware
We've got to be aware of where No. 18 (Davis) is on every play.
