WIth football you can have up to 28 guys you consider starters, and if they can pick up the slack when some aren't playing so well, you don't have to turn those two game losing streaks into six-game losing streaks.
honesty integrity athlete
I think you can just go out and try to be the best you can be, deal with people with respect, with honesty, with integrity, have a high moral standard. I've always really tried to exemplify that as an athlete. I'll continue to try to do that.
team athlete important
Is it going to make me feel any better to make an extra million? That million might be more important to the team.
struggle athlete winning
Athletes are always talking about money at a time when everyone else is struggling so badly to make it. We all make way more than our fair share. And I just think it reflects poorly on myself and my teammates. I really do just want to win, and that has and will continue to be the reason that motivates me and is the biggest factor in my decision-making process.
real hero athlete
As athletes, we think we're heroes, but when you witness firsthand what I saw yesterday, you realize who the real heroes are.
ball early false few move needed plays settled starts
It was very loud, but we have experienced that before. We had a few false starts early and we got settled down. Once we got settled down, we were able to move the ball -- we just didn't make the big plays that we needed to.

The strengths of the team have been different throughout the years. I do think we try to play a certain way of football. I think our philosophy is that we try to play smart and that we try to play tough and we try to play physical out there.

You always want to be perfect out there. But it's about really improving all parts of the game and trying to be more efficient on offense.

We came into a tough environment against an excellent team and had a chance to win the game with three minutes left, ... I would take that any day of the week.

Who is our No. 1 rival? That's a tough one. I'm not really sure. I guess all of them.
farther outside shot threw thrown
You kind of see Troy on the outside of (Bailey), so you think you've got a shot at the corner. So I threw it out there and (Bailey) wheeled back and undercut him. I think if I had thrown it farther back in the end zone, (Brown) could have made the play.
