The tradition between the two schools is unrivaled. It's so rich, goes back so far, in a sense it can't be matched. There are only a couple of other schools in the nation with this much tradition. Hopefully, this can go down as one of the great games.
I admire tough guys. All around, he's a great quarterback. He makes plays when he has to. He's pretty much the complete package. So I don't think there's a lot of difference between the two of us. He's leading a school with great tradition and so am I.
On a Saturday in Columbus and 63,000 show up? That's huge.
I think we can keep improving on some things offensively. We can grow into a real dangerous offense.
I'm sure it's not forgotten, but you've got to move on. It's a new day, a whole different group of guys.
It was about keeping it alive. Just keep it going and get some points.
Pressure busts pipes -- but it can also make a diamond. I'm a diamond.

This was a huge victory. I hope this is the turning point in the season for us.
This was a huge victory. I hope this win turns around our season.
We picked up pace and our shots were there (in the second half). The second half was our best team effort this season.
We came out with the understanding we needed to dominate. Everything kind of clicked today.
