We also understand that the percentage points and the rankings can change weekly. What we have to do is concentrate on winning. That's the only thing we have control over. It's only October, and what we want to do is to be one of the top two teams in December.

There are a lot of rewards for winning, and one that you dream about is to get a National Championship ring. They've had trips to the White House, some have been on Oprah and the celebration was wonderful, but this pretty much puts closure to last year's team.

We didn't want to be stubborn, ... We rushed for 145. We'll take that.
asked chance fun gave gotten hurtful proud run running worse
When you're 1-10 it's a hurtful period. It's not who makes fun of you because you feel worse about yourself. It's because someone gave you a chance to run their program, and you aren't running it very well. That's what you're proud of for Texas, that they've asked you to do something and you've gotten it to this point.

(The win) gives us the opportunity to stay at (No. 2) and hopefully get better as a team. Last year, when we lost in October, we lost some of that and couldn't get back up. It by no means gives you a right to the end, and that's what our kids have to understand. It's a long, hard 11 weeks left.
attitude great hard himself keeps playing pro
He is so hard on himself because he's such a great competitor. But I think he has a chance. If he just keeps playing with the attitude that he is right now, he'll be a great pro player.
toughest
It will come down to who will be the toughest the longest.
field guy held knocked message sent
He knocked the guy out of bounds, ... and we held 'em to a field goal. It sent a message we weren't quitting.
