chris position pressure time
I think any time you take a position like here at Florida, there's pressure on you. There's pressure on me, there's pressure on (quarterback) Chris (Leak). There's pressure on all of us. We have to produce.
backed chris critics-and-criticism great position
Our quarterback position is going to take a lot of criticism, but Chris has been our guy. He has never backed down and he's done a great job.

clicking coming game main push running rushing start stay week yards
We've got to have more than (91) yards rushing to stay with anybody, even this upcoming week. That's going to be one of the main emphases coming this week in practice. We've got to push the running game and start clicking right.
coach demands fair reward trade
We think coach Meyer is going to be the future. What he demands from us is a lot of responsibility, a lot of time. What he's going to reward us with is a lot of wins. That's a fair trade in my book.

I deal with it. This is a physical game and I play a physical position.

We know that football isn't always life. We've learned that lesson.

Everything's going to come down to this game. This is our measuring stick. How is our offense going to do in the SEC? Where are we going to end up at the end of the season? We've had this date marked since January, so we understand the importance of this game.
