based both contribute excited felt time turns
He's a competitor, he was excited out there and he wanted to make up for time missed. We felt that based on preparation and what we're doing, both (quarterbacks) could contribute to a win. As it turns out, when we put the film on, that very well could have happened. But it didn't.
based both contribute course guys time
I just thought, based upon who had had preparation over the course of time and where we were and what we were doing, that both guys could contribute to a win.
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.

Notre Dame is a fast defense, (but) when they're chasing one way, and Teddy's running the other, they've got a problem.
alumni football game great interest largest last level might ohio pick schools state
especially because they're Ohio State and Texas, two great schools that if you had to pick two you'd want to see play, if it's the last game you'd ever want to see in your life, it might be these two and that makes it special, two great football states, two great schools, two of the largest alumni in the world. The interest level is tremendous.
diego good last san state sure
I'm not sure San Diego State was as good as the last two offenses we've played.
exactly farthest playing reference week
It's the farthest thing from complicated right now because Troy's not playing this week and we're playing Miami. . . . I don't know exactly what complicated means, from this reference point, but there's no complication now in my mind.
joe ncaa penn supposed
I thought that was the way it was supposed to be. You really become a part of the community, part of the institution. Joe Paterno is not just a part of Penn State, but a part of NCAA football.
closer field goal score
I was disappointed we didn't get it closer for the field goal if we weren't going to score a touchdown,
discussed good major maybe obviously second task
And, of course, the quarterback has to make plays. That's a major task. The second major task - and maybe more important than the first one I discussed - is they (the quarterbacks) have obviously got to make good decisions.
bags buses normal rest
I know it's normal for our buses and bags and all the rest to be inspected,
coming compete loves ohio ted wrong
I would think the only frustration Ted would have is that he loves to compete and he loves to win, ... He's not used to coming out on the wrong end of the scoreboard. He has some frustration there, as do all of us at Ohio State.
