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.
ball both good next sides
Both sides of the ball did some good things. Now we've got to get better before next week.
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.
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.
chasing dame fast running
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.
justin outside though wish
Justin was very efficient, even though he had the one play that we all wish he had back. Outside of that play I thought he was very efficient.
