We only expect it to be hard. You have to respect the game. It could be anything that gets you. It could be the wind. It could be a call (by an official).
(UA) played really hard, and they had a very good defense, ... Their scheme is very solid. They know how to mix their looks and their pressures. They came after us and were really effective. We respect the heck out of what they are doing and what they are capable of doing.
It's a display of respect for last year. We're proud of what we accomplished, and other people respect that. But it's what we do from this point forward that counts in 2005.
I have great respect for Walt and all the stuff he has done. For years, I have been calling him to ask him what's up, how to do this and how to do that. He is a really good football coach.
I have great respect for what he's done. We've played against each other, and I think it's really cool that we have this chance to match up again. This is the first time we've gone head to head as head coaches.
In respect to the game, the game can get you sometimes. I hope that day when somebody gets us, I hope we played really well on that day and we made them play great.
It has been a great process, ... It has been really fun to put the thing together with the challenge of trying to replace really terrific football coaches. Now we have to go out and prove what we're all about. There is a lot of scrutiny and question marks that I think are valid, but I think this group is going to do a great job.
I think, the more, the better. We've been in the spotlight so long, it's become normal.
People are always looking for the hot new deal. I don't particularly like it because it takes away from the standard traditional football stuff.
Without a question it was a phenomenal effort. You can't take anything away from a special performance like that.
We couldn't stop them when we had to.
We couldn't stop them, and the quarterback ran all over the place.
Well, we couldn't stop them when we had to. The quarterback ran all over the place. This is their night. It's wonderful doing what we've been doing. We didn't get it done.
Well, they have brought that same concept. They have a broader spectrum of things that they do in their offensive game plan. The thing I am really impressed with is how well they can execute that.
