Very dramatic. As exciting as it can be. A wonderful day for college football. It's something we'll never forget. For an energy junkie like me, it can't get any better than that. To be challenged to the last tick of the clock is really special for me.
What we did last year -- that was cool, that was fun. We made a great DVD. But that's behind us. This is a whole new challenge, just as it was last year and the year before.
Watching the film, I didn't think that would happen because they play such great pass defense and they're so aggressive. But Matt was on fire.
With the little bits I have, no. I'm not concerned about that one bit. I'm more concerned with helping the process and making sure everything comes to the front.
We're in great shape, and everything is going to work out for the long haul. I'm not looking. I don't care about those opportunities. ... This is a good time for this. There'll be a tremendous amount of movement in the NFL a week from now.
We've seen in the past that he can make it through the week without a lot of preparation and still play. We'll protect him this week.
We reacted exactly like we should. We had to put a stop to the bad stuff happening before it got too deep and we did that. The defense stopped them for 40 straight minutes and the offense scored seven of the final eight times we had the ball.
We're a couple guys who want to have fun playing football. That's what it amounts to, and we go back to that, go back to the roots of why we're doing this.
We're always worried that the parents are going to be shocked.
We might have come out a little early. It's still soft and soggy.
We need to organize it better, which means they need to let us go first.
We need to be challenged, ... and we need to be under the gun to respond.
I would think that Texas has a tremendous amount of motivation building into this game, just as we do, and they don't need any more than that. If that helps them, then it's OK. I can't do anything about it.
We'll be careful with Reggie this week in practice. We'll make sure there aren't any accidents with him.
