They slowed the game down...took time off the clock. I think that put a sense of urgency into our kids, too, and we were able to feed off it.

You've got to be able to throw the ball in October and November. (Parker) did a nice job of passing in tough conditions tonight.

James is tremendously positive in all aspects of life, a kid who takes everything head on, and those are big pluses for any 17-year-old to have.

He's extremely versatile and they are recruiting him as an athlete. He's a quarterback with great vision on the field. He has a good sense of what's going on and he can make moves in the open field and make people miss him.

Our 'D' did a whale of a job. They controlled the game and gave us great field position.
