We knew going in that they were going to zero in on Kevin, who still had 115 yards in the game. Now, we've got another weapon - teams have to prepare even harder.

The kids played hard. Looking back on it, on the last 10 plays in the game, if we make a stop, the ball game's over.

He basically just pulled it. The snap and our blocking was good Š it's just one of those things that can't happen.

They played well; they'll learn from this.

We had two people all over him. I don't know if anybody could have defended that play any better. The big thing is, it never should have gotten to that point.

I talked to them a long time in the locker room afterwards, looked several in the eye. It was a heartfelt thing - hopefully they've set some goals they truly want to accomplish.

Last year's game was just a battle. It was a tough, hard fought game and we're looking forward to another one - no doubt.
