I remember watching all the game film of teams that have played Arizona State and seeing the big 42 right on the field.
camp focus summer texas until
Our focus all summer up until we started camp was Texas and Vince Young.
definitely group guys helps nice talk
It definitely helps a lot. When we see each other in the halls, we're always talking. A.J. and Anthony are in my group. That makes it nice when you have guys in your group you can talk to.
commodity definitely helps
I think it definitely helps me. We're a commodity in today's game.
bury dog feels front shot took
It feels like someone took your dog out right in front of you and shot it. And then you've got to go and bury it.

We came in after that first play and said, 'We know we're a better team than that.

We've done about 30 or so of these. Now, it's finally winding down.
drawn run stage week
I'd like to be able to run well on a big stage like this. But I told myself I wasn't going to get drawn into that. I probably need another week and a half, two weeks.
athlete athletics explosive fast field gets guy open run sure tremendous tries
He's a tremendous athlete and a very explosive runner, but he's not a guy who's going to put on a lot of moves. Once he gets in the open field he tries to run by guys. We will have to be fast and sure on our open-field tackling.

But otherwise I was at Ohio State. I was in school for winter quarter, for one thing, and because it?s the place where I thought I?d feel most comfortable getting ready.

committed diego good hung knew last playing san state team
We were committed to playing today. We knew we couldn't be hung up on last week's game. We knew San Diego State was going to be a good team and they showed that on the first play.
bring commodity good guys helps looking outside physical seeing size teams tough weight
Seeing a lot of teams go to the 3-4, I think helps me. Looking around, it's tough to find a whole lot of guys who have the size and weight to play outside linebacker in the 3-4. You have to be a bigger, physical guy with good speed. That's something that's kind of a (rare) commodity in today's game. I think that's something I can bring to the table.
guys hard kept playing sidelines stop yards
A lot of guys were on the sidelines apologizing. Usually when we give up big yards on a play, it's one guy's fault. But we were all to blame. We kept playing hard and if we do that and execute, I think we can stop anybody.
