It was a tough night, but we're 1-0 and we're not going to sit around here and cry about it because we could have lost the game with all the dadgum things that happened,
But every now and then if the situation arises where we need to get out of a play and do something else, I think he's ready to do that.
I told them it's OK to root for the Gators, ... but don't root too loud. I told them don't wear orange and blue because they're going to be sitting in our section.
It was a tough night, but we're 1-0 and we're not going to sit around and cry about it because we won the game. It looked easy early and all of a sudden it got tough. I'm not going to be moping too much because a few plays they beat us. I'm going to enjoy being 1-0.
It was a tough night. But we're one and oh and we're not going to sit around and cry about it.
They've behaved well and the focus has been pretty good.
Oh, that's a secret, a little secret, ... Nah, we're breaking the balls in. They're all brand new and slippery as can be. Like a watermelon seed when they bring them out of the box. So you try rubbing them in the dirt, the grass, put a little sweat on them. You try everything to get where you can handle them.
If you want to read about some full-blown fights, read about the Tennessee players, not our guys.
The way our pass protection is right now, I don't know if Blake could last anyway.
Shows you how alert we were as a team. It was sad.
I thought Blake played very well for his first performance, and, really, for any performance,
He's a big target and catches everything. As a quarterback, those are the guys you like. He's got a chance to help us win big around here and has a chance to break some records because we're going to be firing.
He contributes a lot, ... He's been a wonderful guy, does everything, weightlifting, been a good teammate for all the guys.
He was given the day off. But he should be here tomorrow.
