I'm getting older every week. It's not going to be an easy hill to climb, but I can assure you these guys are going to be battle-tested before it's all said and done - mentally and physically.

He had a pinched nerve and some muscle spasms, but he's doing fine. We expect to have him back in two weeks.

Ronnie Patrick really stepped up Friday night. He is full speed no matter where you put him. He's really the kind of kid you want to coach.

It looks like they're back. They look really good. It's going to be tough, especially down there. It's going to be like you're down two touchdowns when you get off the bus.

They're a scrappy bunch and can really get after it. They're going to be well coached and have some good skill guys at quarterback and tailback. If we continue to get better each week like we are, I think we should be fine.

I was impressed. They stepped up big in the second half. We called them out and they responded.

We're still making a lot of mental mistakes. That's two weeks in a row when we should have had a shutout, but we had blown coverage or a blown assignment. It's like two plays each week that kill us.
