coming good hard maybe nfl people players program year
This year we don't have as many high-profile guys, ... but there's some really good players here that, because they're coming out of this program, NFL people will take a very hard look at and maybe draft, where at another program maybe they wouldn't get drafted.
bobby buy coach football good help possibly program sure
Bobby is a good person, he's an outstanding football coach and I'm sure he's done everything he could possibly do to help the program be successful. Buy they haven't won, and as we all know if you don't win. . .
program streak
I don't know if any program will ever have a streak like that again. It's a different world.
break enjoy football hope importance monotony overstate people program south terrible
I don't want to overstate the importance of our football program to the city, but South Florida's important to us and I think we're a big part of South Florida. I hope people can enjoy just a little break from the monotony of all the terrible things that have happened.

A great rivalry is two great programs that are competitive every year. In a great rivalry, you've played 100 games and that team has won 50 and your team has won 50.

hurt last played since tight turn week
I thought they were going to turn me into a tight end. I can't wait. Shoot, I was hurt the first week of camp. I haven't really played since last spring.
flow good playing potential
I think we're better than we're playing. What that potential is, I don't know. I think our receivers are good enough. We're not playing as well as we can and I think we've got to give them more opportunities to get them in the flow and get them playing better.
good great guy seen stepped
I think we're going to be good at that position. But to say anybody's really stepped up and made us say, 'This guy is a great player,' I really haven't seen that, no.
business fly less obvious radar stellar win
I think it's pretty obvious that you can't have less than a stellar day and win on Saturday. When you fly under the radar a bit, you go about your business and do your work.
answered defense pressure questions
I think we answered a lot of questions about our quarterback. Their defense put a lot of pressure on him, but he never rattled.
bit chip last losing time virginia year
I think so. They're very hungry. They're disappointed by that game. Any time you lose, a little like us last year losing to Virginia Tech, we had a little bit of a chip on our shoulder. And I could see that being the same way with LSU.
kyle positive seems
Kyle seems to be doing fine. Everything's positive there.
