imagined nor sure understand winning
No, I couldn't have imagined that. Nor do I understand completely how it works. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to or ever want to. It's something you can't control, other than by winning each and every week.
caught exciting explosive good hard liked night training worked
Keith worked really hard this summer. He had a good training camp. He's an explosive receiver. He's exciting to see because he's so fast. What I liked about (Saturday) night is once he caught the ball, he was going north.

It's a big win because it keeps us undefeated and keeps everything out in front of us, ... There's so much attention paid to this game for a number of reasons, because it's a rivalry and the things that have happened the last couple of years. I think the most important thing is the game is for bragging rights. This year, anyway, it's our time to brag.
bit guys halftime job nervous panic realized though veteran
I was a little nervous at halftime just because I couldn't tell where we were as a team, if we were a little bit down or flat, ... What I realized is we've got some veteran guys who weren't necessarily going to panic even though we didn't play as well as we thought we could in the first half. They just went out there and did their job better.

ball chance dropped effort good guys looked plays talked tends whenever whether wind
The effort was really, really good. I thought we looked real good on defense. We talked about getting to the ball and making plays. Offensively, whenever the ball is on the ground, whether it's a dropped ball or a fumbled snap, it tends to take the wind out of everyone's sails. I think that's what happened. We had a chance to make big plays and didn't do it and guys got frustrated.
