This is a different year and we are an entirely different team. We are 0-2 vs. Florida Atlantic, but this football team is 0-0 against them.

They have a great defense and are coached very well. They move to the ball well, and are aggressive at times.

Going into the season we had high expectations. It's disappointing and it's frustrating, and as the season went on, we had more and more problems, but those are things that we should be able to handle.

That was in that scrimmage at Washington University. We were fighting a little bit after the play. It was a little heated argument.

You have to focus on what you have to do, and obviously there are rumors swirling all over the place. We see the papers every now and then, too. You never know how things are going to end up.

It's an opportunity to go against one of [the best], if not the best, conference in the country. This is a very good Alabama team, one of the best in the country and certainly one of the best in the SEC.

We've had great support on the road. I think we had more than FAU had last week. We didn't have a lot of fans jump off, and now we're coming home and I hope our fans create another edge for us.

I told him he has to (come back). If I'm going to be here, he has to be here. I told him, 'How am I going to work out if I have to do it by myself?' I hardly do a good enough job as is. I need Adam to push me hard and give me more donuts.

I was real proud of how Eugene ran hard on a wet field. He really took a step forward for us. He ran physical against a real physical defense, and I know he gives a lot of the credit to his offensive line.
