It was obvious he was the the difference in this game.
It's what everyone dreams about that comes to play here, and we try to be real frank about it. We have tremendous NFL experience on our staff, our background and the way we teach is exactly the way they do up there. It's a selling point.
It took him only a half to prove that he is the best player in college football.
It's real simple. The series before they had great success moving down the field. If they get the ball, I don't know what yard line it was, but it's the 40 or so, whether they get it there ... or kick it 20 yards farther, it's not going to make a big difference.
That's an extraordinary football player. He's not only big, he's fast. He probably made us miss a dozen tackles.

As we do every spring, we'll try to establish the high level of competitiveness, intensity and work ethic that have been the hallmark of our program. Spring football is a very important time for us to develop and capture those attributes.
As we have said repeatedly, it's great to come back and play at the Coliseum. It's really important for us to find our style back here at home. It's just been a long haul to get to this point.
As you can see, Charlie's factor in what they've been able to do is enormous,
