You've just got to use your time wisely. You've got 2-3 weeks to prepare for this game (and) you've got to really study your own game plan and study yourself. The last three years, we've done a great job of that. We've always had a great game plan and went out and executed it.

We know we're a good team. Unfortunately, we just slipped in the last couple of games. You don't want that, but we still know we're a good team. We haven't lost any confidence, and we've just got to come out and play the same way we've been playing all year.

After a loss like that, you think of everything you could've done to maybe have changed the outcome, ... That's a game we should have had and were in position to win. We know the BCS run is basically out of reach. We just have to have a short memory from here out.

It was great to give them a taste of how it feels when you're that close to the WAC championship and you just get run over by another team.

I'm ready for my best season.

You want to invite the defensive line to come up, ... It buys time for the play to develop.

I was just glad we got one. Finally we have a chance to control our own destiny.

Then, I just watch the rest of the play, ... I get the best seat in the house.

Just because we lost one [game], this is still a good team. We understand we can't let it affect what we do the next game or the next. We can get over this.
