As I mentioned to some folks last night. There's a lot of good football teams in the Big East and we had some very competitive battles with them and we'll continue to have those the next several years.
against both coming emotional excited fans games good last obviously passion programs remember three
It has obviously been a really good rivalry, ... I can remember as a player, it was always a tough, defensive, low-scoring kind of ballgame, coming down to the last possession. The last three years, we've had some really good games against them. It's very emotional on both sides. I think there's a lot of passion both fans have. Both programs have been excited to play each other.
conference good herb knew plane press
I'd already be on the plane to Florida. I don't think he (recruiting coordinator Herb Hand) knew that we had a press conference at 8 a.m. if we won, so I had to reschedule. But, that's a good thing.

But Adam and Pat both have earned the right to play. They both are good enough to win with. The nice part is we can run the whole offense with both. They're unselfish and understand their roles.

I don't ever remember having five turnovers and still winning the game. Syracuse had a good defensive plan. We were scrambling all day on offense.

I want our guys to feel good about last year. But any play made last year against Georgia or Louisville won't help us get a first down versus Marshall. The 2006 season is upon us, and we're 0-0.

They have a good scheme and the guys have grown up in it. They have great athletes. At every position they have guys that will be playing in the NFL when their college careers are done.
giving good guys pressure run strong understand
They're doing pretty good. I'd like to get more pressure on the quarterback at times. But those guys are giving pretty good effort. I like the way they work. I think they are all guys that are very strong and can run and can understand what we want out of their schemes.
far good limit offense score takes team
You've got to try to limit the big plays, which we've been pretty good at so far this year. They score so quickly, I think it takes the other team out of their offense so fast.
beat chance cheap good mentally missed mistakes
You can't make missed assignments and give them cheap ones. They're good enough to beat you without you making mistakes; you can't make mistakes mentally and have a chance to do it.
ball break burst extremely good pat played ran steve white
They showed some of their explosiveness. I thought Pat White played extremely well, ran the ball well and made some good decisions. And Steve Slaton, at times, he's got that burst that he can break one at any time.
build football glass good hungry media people stay telling
People are going to try to build them up in the media and on campus. I keep telling them they already live in glass houses, being football players. Now that glass is getting a good cleaning. People are going to see them. They have to stay hungry and want it.

He's had a really good camp, ... He's a veteran guy who can play slot receiver as well. He's more confident than he's ever been. He's in great shape, and we're excited for him.

I think our guys are eager to improve. But we need to be more consistent in the fundamentals. We have to have a good summer.
