amazed anybody ball best came exactly job mike offense spike taken tech texas throw time wind
When Spike was at Texas Tech ... I thought he did the best job anybody could do at Tech. It had his personality. Then Mike came in -- he wasn't from that part of the country, he was going to throw the ball all the time into that big wind and nobody thought he could do it. Give him credit. He has taken his personality and his offense and he has done exactly what he has wanted to do with it. ... I am amazed at the things he has accomplished.

Look at what he has accomplished at the highest level of college football. He's 27 hours away from graduation. He has done everything right on and off the field. He's got character. He's got intelligence. He's got a burning desire to succeed. He has a great heart. He competes as hard as anybody I've ever been around. There's no downside. If he stays healthy, he'll be one of the great ones to ever play.

We couldn't make a first down running the ball. They were tough and got after our tail. They'll bring an excited bunch in here. I'm sure they'll want to get away from the distractions of the family issues with the flood, and they have nothing to lose.
easier family home road
When you're the home team, there are more distractions because your friends are around and your family is around. Sometimes it's easier to play on the road than it is at home.

Our state is different, there's no question about that. Our media is different. Who we are is different. Our fan base in some cases is different, and you have to understand it and embrace it and not try to fight it.
