Last year was frustrating for me as a head coach. Sometime when you take over a program, I see the word out there, I'm maintaining ... For me, I was part of that also. Now to be able to knock off an Oklahoma, there are a lot of positives with it.

For me, this will probably be the biggest win as a head coach for this program. You've got to know everybody will have ups and downs. This is real important. These are all my kids now that I've recruited. It's good to see them play hard and play in that kind of arena.

Oklahoma lost a lot from last year but still has a lot. Neither team knows what it has until the ballgame is over.

I said going into the ballgame that I thought there was a little bit of an advantage in having a senior quarterback. He gave me a scare .. and I told him to never do it again.

Oklahoma has more question marks, I think. If I'm them watching film I'm not sure what kind of TCU team I'm getting. Last year was an uncharacteristic year for us defensively.

We feel very fortunate and are very happy to be 1-0. I don't think many people gave us a chance to be 1-0. But you lose everything you gained winning against an Oklahoma if you go and get beat by SMU.

I think that nine times out of 10, Oklahoma wins this game. Today was our one. We got a chance to show off on national TV and show America that TCU is not gone.
