couple last maybe talented
We're a little more talented now than maybe we've been the last couple years. But we've got to show it on the field.
against ate ball clock couple drives field half nice second
We haven't had the ball very much. We had a couple of nice drives in the second half against Rutgers, ate up the clock and got field goals.
couple fits given last opponent
It's an opponent that's given us some fits over the last couple years.
career cases couple graduates great guy job plenty points short team
I was a little disappointed in that (Big East) rule. We've had plenty of cases on the team now, and in the past, where a guy was a couple points short on a test. Yet he comes here and graduates and has a great career and does a great job representing the program.
couple game goes
Pat, when he goes in there it's like he's been there the whole time. He managed the game well, made a couple of big plays.
couple games last ok win
The last couple of games there's been a lot of long drives. The games are going a lot faster, which is OK as long as you win it.
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.
east graduation guys last lost neat realized talk watch winning
We lost a lot of guys to graduation last year, so we realized there wasn't going to be a lot of talk about us winning the Big East this year. It was neat to watch them come together.
bring creates draft fall flying others percent reason saves studied survive
I've studied this a little bit. The reason they do this is because flying in a 'V' formation creates a draft and that saves 70 percent of their energy. If one or two fall out of formation, others will go down and bring them back in. They can't survive on their own.
bit change field practice rains wet
It was a little bit wet but we were able to get through it. We don't have Field Turf where we are so, if it rains extensively, we'll have to change our practice site.
ball impressed moving
I see the quarterback is distributing ball to the right guys, making the right reads, and moving the ball down the field. I am very impressed by him.
awake biggest night obviously waiting
I've been awake all night waiting on it. That's obviously our biggest concern.
defense lucky obviously
It would behoove us to have a low-scoring game. For that to happen, obviously we've got to play very well on defense and be lucky too,
bleak fourth guys hanging kept looked momentum
Things looked bleak there for a long time. But our guys kept hanging in there and we got a little momentum there in the fourth quarter.
