That's why I went and talked to (Coach Bowden) about it. Obviously after looking at (Washington's senior season) it was something I needed to do and it went great. It's really not something I'm worried about anymore.

I felt like I'm not done. I came here to obviously try to win a national championship and I just felt like I really haven't gotten the opportunity to show what I can do. I feel like this year since Leon (Washington) is gone, I really have that chance. Not only that, but the people here are really great.

It's supposed to happen to us.

We've got a lot of weapons, particularly at wide receiver, as everybody can see. We feel like we're going to be the most dangerous if those guys are on the field. ... We really want teams to understand we're much more than Leon and Lorenzo running the football.

It was like, 'Did that really just happen. That's supposed to happen to us.

Oh man. It has really surprised me. Obviously, we knew the potential these young guys had, but I'd be lying if I said I thought they'd come in and make this impact this early. Especially with these receivers.

That's something that not only us and the coaching staff, but the fans want to see, too. Back in '95 and '96 when Warrick Dunn and Rock Preston did it, it was real effective.

We're going to celebrate tonight.

That bothers me the most. We had all the momentum. Not only a blocked punt, but a second blocked punt... we're at home, the crowd is going nuts, you couldn't have asked for a better situation.... and we couldn't capitalize. We couldn't make it happen.
