concerned focus game
I think we're concerned about ourselves. Not that you're not concerned with your opponent, but when you play your first game of the year, I think that you focus on yourself.
bit energy game happen high level might normally ready six
I think the thing that disappointed me a little bit is that I don't think the energy level was as high as it normally is. That might be because we've been getting ready for this first game for six weeks. But things like that happen in the first game.
chess game playing
We think the game is a chess game you're playing all the time,
chance football game obviously players tells today win
We obviously didn't play our A game today and yet we had a chance to win at the end. That tells me we've got some football players and we'll be fine.
convinced effective equally game option passing spread time
We have utilized the quarterback as a runner, but not as an option guy. We haven't been convinced we can put all the time into the option and the spread passing game and be equally effective at both. We feel we can do that now.

What I'm more concerned about is not his leadership or his emotional approach of the game, but more about how well he manages his emotions on the field. If he does that, he'll manage the game well.
game kicking shock
I don't know about his place-kicking. He's strong-legged, but I don't know about his accuracy. But it wouldn't shock me at all to see him kicking off in the first game of the year.
executing game great job looking managing perfection played
He did a great job of managing the game and executing the offense. We're always looking for perfection, but he played awfully well once again.
allow field game huge ideal matches opportunity practice prepare program step team
Another huge step for our program is that we will have a rebuilt practice field that matches our game field. This will allow us the opportunity to prepare as a team under the most ideal conditions.
difficult five game win
It's very difficult to win a game when you have five turnovers.
ahead change chess game move offense present problems stay trying
Also, we wanted to change some things in our offense so that we would present some new and different-looking problems for our opponents. The game is a chess game. You're always trying to stay one move ahead of your opponent.
