We're going to give Rhett Bomar a chance to start and see where he takes it. By no means am I sitting here saying that Paul Thompson is responsible for the way we played Saturday.

What he has been able to do is just remarkable.

When we did protect him, we didn't convert our opportunities.
expect fully kids prepare slow
We prepare our kids to look and see. You can't be fully prepared. You have to expect them to do something to slow us down, and we'll try to do the same thing to them.
