beat came few game plays unusual
It was an unusual game, but the Gamecocks won, and that's what we came here to find out. I'm not going to feel too bad, because a few plays here and there, they beat us.
alabama beat coached heck looked played thoroughly
There's not too much to say. Alabama thoroughly beat us. They are a better team. They were coached better, they played better, and they looked like they will have a big season. They have a heck of a team.
beat conference effort good holding played points proud sharp tonight win
We're very proud of the effort of our players. The effort was there. It was the little things here and there that made us a loser. We're just not sharp enough right now to beat a good team. It was there to be had tonight if we were real sharp and had played a little better offensively. Holding them to 17 points should be good enough to win a conference game.
beat bennett eat fred freshman gave guy played receiver stick three threw wide
Freddie played better than we thought. He beat Fred Bennett on the first touchdown. You'd think with a freshman wide receiver and a guy who started about three years, Fred would eat him up. But he gave him a little stick step, and Cade threw it in there.
beat guys scrape victories
We're not in the upper echelon by any means. We've got to scrape and claw for any victories we can get. I think our guys know we've got to play well. We don't have to play perfectly, but we need to play well to beat these guys.
beat cry early easy enjoy few looked plays sit sudden tough won
It was a tough night, but we're 1-0 and we're not going to sit around and cry about it because we won the game. It looked easy early and all of a sudden it got tough. I'm not going to be moping too much because a few plays they beat us. I'm going to enjoy being 1-0.
beat good
It's different, but that's where we are right now. For us to beat good teams, it's going to have to be something like that (score) right now.
beat beaten teams
We beat some teams we hadn't beaten in a long time. They don't own our butts anymore.
beat believe certainly chance field plays run slow stay throw
We'll go let Antonio throw it around and run it around and see if we can make some plays and stay on the field offensively and slow them down defensively, ... If we do those things we certainly believe we have a chance to beat Auburn.
beat both faster good guys kicked minutes played realm seems
We played well at times both offensively and defensively. But in the whole realm of 60 minutes we didn't play good enough to beat Missouri. It seems like they played faster than our guys did. Give them credit, they kicked our tails.
beat lost
We beat two little guys, lost to two big guys.
arizona beat bob defensive remember state team tennessee wake watched
I remember after we beat Tennessee in 1996 up there and we got back around midnight. We went to Nappy's and watched Arizona State beat Nebraska. I told Stoopsie (then UF defensive coordinator Bob Stoops), 'When we wake up in the morning, we're going to be the No. 1 team in the country.'
ability athlete ball beat contain cover excellent guys hope pressure texas throw
He's an excellent athlete with his ability to run, just like the Texas quarterback, Vince Young. You hope to try to make him throw the ball and not beat you running. We're going to try to contain him and try to cover their guys and try to get pressure on him.
beating few good guys plays praise
I don't want to praise our guys too much for beating this team. Had a few good plays here and there. Still a long way off.
