Our first thing is to stop the run, period.
complete dynamic loves
He's a dynamic young man. He loves to compete. He's working to become a complete quarterback.
allow attack bit college evolution football good guys hit league people pros quite spread throw
I think in this day and age, you've got to be able to attack with a lot of different things. There are so many good guys out there that can throw and catch, and the evolution of football -- there's so many good ideas. Sometimes, things trickle down a little bit from the pros. Now, the pros don't allow their quarterback to get hit quite as much as we do in college football in our spread offenses and so forth, but I just think because people are so well-schooled on defense, you've got to give them more problems. I think if you have that as part of your package, it can give you a chance. Some of the people in our league do it very, very well.
bothers excellent job mean might ted
It bothers you that he might be criticized. Does that mean I think he's been perfect? No. But I think Ted Ginn has done an excellent job for us.

easily emotional reach
That was an emotional turnaround. It very easily could have been a 20-7 game, which is not an out of reach game. But it's a lot different than being down 17-14.
playing scout
Maurice is going to be playing tailback on our scout team.
certainly challenge continue decisions defensive environment face field football good great guys hope saturday team time tough
This is a tough defensive football team that he's going to face in a tough environment, and it's a great challenge for him and a great challenge for the guys that will be on the field at the same time with him, and we certainly hope that he can continue to be efficient, make good decisions and so forth, but that's what Saturday is for -- to find that out,
bit excellent far followed good letting looking looks loose maybe spring thus
Antonio Pittman had an excellent spring and he's followed it up thus far with a very good fall. Erik Haw looks a little bit better right now than he did in the spring; maybe he's letting loose a little bit, maybe he was a little nervous. Maurice Wells is looking great.
based best grueling guess hard league people stadiums sure teams type walk
You never know for sure in the preseason how teams are going to be. You can make your best guess based on the people that are returning, and that type of thing. But the thing about the Big Ten, we play a grueling out-of-conference schedule. And then, when you get into the league and you go into those opposing stadiums, it's hard to win. Our stadiums are incredible. It's like you're already down by a touchdown when you walk in the door.

good step
Antonio showed a lot of burst. I thought this was a good step for him.
good hope moving steam took
That was probably the backbreaker -- 24-10 is a two-score game. There is always pretty good hope even if you haven't been moving the ball. 31-10 and you haven't been moving it -- that probably took a little steam out of them.
