I like it better like this. I'd rather be the underdogs. I'd rather people not know my name when I come out and do this stuff. Then they'll say, 'Who was that?'

Andrew Taylor
We came into the tournament with a horrible record. It was a winning season, but everybody doubted us. South Carolina is this, South Carolina is that, we're underdogs, we're not going to do nothing in the tournament. Hey we're showing people right now we've got a lot of heart and we're tough.

We're showing people a lot right now. Nobody thought going into the season that we might even be in first place in the Seamount but that we would be the underdogs.

We were not expected to win or even get the tie. We were big-time underdogs in this game in everybody's eyes except our own people. You can say that this probably means more to us than to the American team.
Arturs Irbe
I enjoyed it when we were the favorites. I'm enjoying us being decisive underdogs, because nobody thinks we'll win this series. So, yeah, I'm enjoying it. I've enjoyed it all. What I'd like to do is see our players play as good as they can play.
Van Chancellor
When you look at the numbers all the other regions get as far as getting players, their numbers are far greater than ours as far as kids playing soccer. We would be considered the underdogs of the entire four teams.

Alan Dawson
I am sure we are the underdogs, but that's OK. We probably were two years ago, too. We know what we are facing, but I also know that we have some die-hard competitors who play pretty good defense. We have some kids who can play some pretty good basketball, too.
Teri Rosinski
We came out here as the underdogs and we wanted to prove to ourselves that we could play with Shabazz. Our coach prepared us well for this game and we weren't intimidated by them.
Tia Curtis
I think we're underrated, but I think we are officially the underdogs in the next game. We've played a lot of close games. Our record (15-12) is deceiving. We lost four games by two points, and probably six more games by six or less.
Melissa Slone
Everyone considers Scotland as underdogs and that is a fantastic title to have. We will look after our game, prepare very well and if the players do the jobs asked of them then I think we will put up some strong opposition.
Peter Drinnen
We're the underdogs. Nobody's expecting us to do anything.
Henry Latten
We've been [hearing] it all year. We broke camp knowing no one picked us to do very well during the season. We came out of spring being third or fourth in the polls. We were the underdog all year even when we had a 15-game lead. Nobody really considers us contenders, so if we're underdogs during this whole thing, it would just be the same as it was during the year.
Cliff Politte
I always cheer for the underdogs.
Kevin Gullikson
Anything can happen in a semi-final, and we will now go into it as underdogs.

People say we're going to be the underdogs. We're just going to go in there and play hard. We've been underdogs every year before this, so we're going to go out there and play our game.
Lucious Jordan
I think we're kind of underdogs when we play them, and people didn't expect too much from us. Everybody is behind us in Finland, and I don't think there's pressure.

They had the pressure. When you win the President's Trophy you're supposed to be a pretty good club -- and they were -- but we were the underdogs and just came in played. That got us through.
Todd Harvey
We've been the underdogs all year. I think they're finally believing. They're playing with that kind of confidence to win these games.
Cheryl Kirkland
We're 24-0 underdogs, because we come from what people say is a weak league. We're going to do some damage at state.

We're the underdogs. No one expects this out of us, and they won't expect anything out of us (tonight). We can just go out, play our game and not worry.
Mannie Decastro
It's tough to come out of non-conference play with any confidence. We need to be a little realistic about what we're attempting to accomplish in these games. You want to create exposure, but winning will also do that. It's tough to win when you're coming in as 20- or 30-point underdogs each week.
Frank Solich
We're the underdogs here. We have to come out and play hard because people don't expect much from us.

Chris Fleming
We were the underdogs and we wanted to win.

We are the underdogs, the Netherlands are the big favorites. But we have to play two matches, and we know we played well against Germany (in qualifying), and they were also big favorites.
Berti Vogts
It's a journey into the unknown, ... but we will be doing our utmost to get as much information on them as possible. We are going to be underdogs and the fact they won their group last season suggests they are a very good team. We have to be more than wary of them and we will prepare very thoroughly.
Tony Mowbray
We?re big underdogs, but we?re not conceding anything.
Kacey Mcnulty
The Cougars are three-trombone underdogs.
John Blanchette
I have told the players this is their chance to write themselves into the history of the club by getting into the final. We are the underdogs but I believe we have a chance if we play in the correct manner.
Ray Stewart
I want people like Rocky. I like underdogs. I've been one all my life. I like people who take it as a challenge when they're told they can't do something. This whole situation is a little like that.
Art Briles
We weren't given much of a chance to win any games. After we beat Wisconsin Rapids in overtime, then people started taking us seriously. The crowd loves an underdog, and we sure as hell were underdogs.
Bernie Kubale
It's a dream. This year has been especially hard. We were always the underdogs. Since conference play started this year, we've been in first place. We had a target on our backs. It's harder to play with a target on your back.
Jamar Wilson
They are coming here as underdogs, and last week's game would have been a kick up the backside for them. It will take a monumental effort for us to beat them.
Lewis Moody
To be underdogs or not, I don't think it gives anybody an advantage once you go on the ice. It's who wants it the most and who is willing to sacrifice the most to get it. If we can do that, I think we have as good a chance as anybody.
Guy Dupuis
We would have been the underdogs in any group as it's our first appearance in the finals and we don't have the experience.
Ratomir Dujkovic
I know we're underdogs. It's a good feeling. You don't have anything to lose. We can just go out and play. Our town, they really support high school basketball, so for us to continue our season gives them something to cheer about. We're gaining more fans every day.
Daniel Ruffin
We're the underdogs going into their place. Now we get to see what we can do.
Ben Roethlisberger
We know we have a battle on our hands. We feel like we're the underdogs. It's going to take one of our best games to beat Gulf.
Sean Brady
It feels real good because a lot of people thought we were underdogs coming into the sectional. We came out and proved everybody wrong.
Todd Hanni
The kids read the Friday papers and they like to see where other teams are picked to win. But now we're not the underdogs anymore. We've got another role.
Bradley Warren
We really don't want no moral victories. It would've been better to win. We was underdogs anyway, so there really wasn't no pressure on us.

We understand our underdog role and hopefully our players will relish the fact that other schools in our league and section see us as underdogs.

Steve Slaton
They can call me the underdog but you know what, New Yorkers love underdogs. Just ask George Pataki.
Rick Lazio
We're the underdogs. We haven't had a top ten hit, and we look like a bunch of bums out there. Amidst all this glam, and this huge production, we're going to stick it out. But that's what we're here for - and that's what put us here in the first place.
Kirk Hammett
They're going to think we're underdogs, but I don't feel like an underdog.

From a team perspective, we pretty much like being considered underdogs or under the radar.
Eric Brock
We're used to being the underdogs.
