football great player team valuable
I'd just like to say, look at the year. Vince Young is a great football player and to me, the most valuable player on our football team for sure, and on any team in the country.
exciting fun games talked teams time
These two teams have been talked about for a month. It's a fun and exciting thing but now it's time to let the games begin.
couple dealt few guys later obviously talked team weeks within
Obviously we had a few young guys that were out later than we'd like for them to be a couple of weeks ago. We've dealt with them within our team, and we've talked to our team about it.
fans football home honor michael ride team tribute university
This is a real tribute to our football team and the fans of the University of Texas. It will be an honor for the Longhorn logo to ride with Michael in our home state.
ability baby difference enjoy good kids last people stakes step talked teams texas time took year
Good teams enjoy the hype, and they have the ability to focus. Young people come to Texas and SC for this game, and it's been a long time for us to get back to this game, and we took a baby step last year in this environment. I've talked to the kids about it. The only difference between this year and last year is the stakes are bigger.
fourth game lose quarter scores sitting straight team won
It was really surreal, when you're sitting there in the fourth quarter and you're down by two scores to a team who had won 34 straight game and still think you're going to win. We never ever really thought we would lose the ballgame.
bobby fix game last playing puts scares spot team three tight tough
They did not have Bobby Reid the last two weeks, and we think they'll have him back. He can make a lot of plays. Turnovers have killed them the last three weeks. When you're playing a team like that it scares you. If they fix their turnover problems, it puts you in a tough spot in a tight game on the road.
age-and-aging best team trying
Because they're old. They're my age. Today, in a head-on battle, it's no contest. But on that stage, at that time, they were the best team in the country. And they always will be. And that's what this team is trying to be for the 2005 season.
associated coaching finished fourth game last missouri played quarters since team
One of the things we like so much about the team right now is that since the Missouri game last year, this team has finished better. We've played in the fourth quarters better than any team I have been associated with in my coaching career.
bottom chance doubt finish good great harder high polls rated rather since start teams top win wish year
If you're good enough to finish where you want to, and that's to win all your games, you'd rather start high because it's a lot harder now to come from the bottom to the top than it used to be. If you're out of the top 10 and some other teams have good seasons, you can have a great year like Auburn did and not have a chance to win it all. So there's no doubt that it's more important. I wish we started polls in October. Since we do not, I'd rather be rated high.
best gave kept liked playing team tonight
The thing that I liked best about our team tonight is that they just kept playing and they never got discouraged and they never gave up.
beat college felt football goal playing team understand year
They are the team in college football right now. We understand that we have an opportunity, because we're playing so well, to beat the team that's been the best. That's the goal we set a year ago. We felt like we'd be playing SC in this game. And all of that has happened.
football games next team texas win won
Next year's team hasn't won a game. There's not going to be another Vince Young. We can win football games at Texas because we won them before Vince got here, and we'll win them afterwards.
challenge enjoy game great matches royal teams ten test ton tradition woody
This is a great test for us and a great challenge for the Big 12 and Big Ten conferences. You have to enjoy a game that matches two teams where Woody Hayes and Darrell Royal once coached, and there's a ton of tradition there.
