Famous Quotes & Sayings

Jim Boyd

Kickers are a little different and you've got to be careful with them because they think too much. Before this ballgame I talked to Joe and I said, 'Joe, just go out there and kick the ball. Don't think about it. Just go out and kick it because there's going to be a situation where we need you in this ballgame,' and sure enough, here it was and he came through beautifully for us.

Tommy Amaker

I think the key to the ballgame was when we made that little run. That was the run that we needed, and then we just kind of held on for dear life.

Stan Hyman

We've finished second in the conference two years in a row, but to get over the hurdle you've got to be able to put runs on the board. We've played a lot of low-scoring ballgames and we didn't score early in a ballgame ... so we kept coming back late.

We threw a quick pass, a fade route, and they called holding on our center. Our center didn't even have a chance to hold (because the play was so quick). It's a different ballgame (without the penalty).
