I wasn't surprised, we got a good football team. Our kids made up their mind what they wanted to do.

There is so much balance to our conference. We just have to take everybody's best shot each week. We beat a great Southwest team. We cleared a big hurdle and we just have to make sure we don't hit the next hurdle.

We didn't play a lick of defense. We played with our heads down and there was poor coaching on our part.

I am concerned about their offense. I think their offense is real efficient.

Obviously, it does give us an opportunity to start off (conference play) with a win and not a loss.

We're trying to get healthy. We had a couple starters out for the Southwest game, and a couple people that hadn't practiced. P.J. Gardner missed the game against Southwest, but he'll be back on the O-line. We're working on basic stuff, not looking to change much, just looking to continue to improve.

The quarterback is really good; he does some good stuff without a doubt.

We're hoping for the momentum (from the win), but not (an emotional) high.

We didn't come up and tackle, ... They flat out ran over us and they looked good tonight.
