Famous Quotes and Proverbs

«I think it's probably safe to say his breakthrough game would have been the Michigan State game (one game before the Ohio State game),»

«Now the big challenge probably is to make sure he doesn't feel like he has to do too much, just has to play his position but doesn't have to be the hero every play or every game. We don't want any of our guys thinking that.»

«We're real pleased with Albert's start to the season, certainly, and we've had good feelings about him for three years now, ... It's exciting to have him out there on the field, but all it does is enable us to have a better chance to be more balanced. We certainly weren't able to get that done last year for obvious reasons, and I think this year, all of our running backs have really done a good job. They've been practicing well and it's probably been a bright spot on our football team.»

«I don't know if you're familiar with the way we've played the first three weeks,»

«I think that's more media talk and fan talk. All I know is that if you're going to have a chance to win a title, that really becomes apparent in November if you're in the race or not. If you don't take care of business in September or October, none of that's going to matter. I'm just more in tune to what our concern areas are right now, and hopefully we can improve those real quick because again, knowing the strength of the conference, if we don't get moving here, we're going to get left behind real fast.»

«I just think that's football in general,»

«I think you're right on target, ... It depends on the teams you're looking at. Nobody in the country runs the ball as well as Minnesota. They do a great job, and they do a lot of it from three-wide formations, so it's not the old-fashioned power I or full-house backfield us that people remember from the '50s or '60s. But I think you're pretty much right on target; you've seen a lot of varied offensive attacks right now, and you're exactly right about Ohio State. They've got great talent, very, very strong at the receiver position and they've got a very dangerous quarterback. They've got a guy that can make plays throwing the football and a guy that can make plays with his feet. But it changes week-to-week, game to game. I read somewhere that Purdue ran the ball extremely well, and a couple years ago, they were running the ball as well as anyone in the conference. Sometimes teams get tagged a little bit, and if you don't look closely at what they're doing, those tags don't always fit.»

«It'd probably be hard to find a college game with better linebackers on the field at one time. It ought to be exciting. Tough on the offenses - but it should really be exciting for the fans to watch.»

«I still maintain the best thing about (Hodge and Greenway) is it's not what they do on the field, which is significant, it's all the things they contribute off the field in terms of leadership, work ethic, attitude. They're so different and yet so similar in terms of the contributions they make.»

«It was pretty much a one-sided football game both ways.»
