enemy fast guy guys hit hole instincts maybe nice run sideways straight teddy
When there's a little hole there, it's nice to go straight ahead. When there's another jersey, the instinctive part of any fast guy ... is maybe run sideways once too often. But that's the instincts fast guys have, that they can run around enemy jerseys. But you see a hole, hit it. That's what Teddy did.
bags buses columbus game normal ohio regret surprises venue year
It's normal for our buses and bags to be inspected. That's the times we live in. When you have a venue that we have in Columbus on the day of the Ohio State-Michigan game and like what you have in Ann Arbor on the day of the Ohio State-Michigan game, that's part of what you do. We regret if there were any surprises a year ago. They weren't intended.
happens hit job loves ought surprised talent weight works
He's amazing. All he does is work. He loves it, loves practice, loves the weight room, loves to hit people. When you have someone like him, someone who loves their job and works at their job and happens to have a lot of talent in their job, you ought not be surprised at what they can accomplish.
anytime good learned nice ourselves played players saw step surprise veterans work younger
I think we learned some things about ourselves today. We saw some good things and we saw some things we need to work on. We didn't play a lot of our veterans because we know what they can do. It was nice to see some of our younger players step up and make plays. I thought we really played hard, but that didn't surprise me. Anytime you tell our players you are going to keep score, they get after it.
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.
