We don't want to ordsprog

We don't want to be looked at as the weak links. We just wanted to take on that competitive role. We go into games thinking we're just as good as Marcus and Troy. We've been learning from them for a while now.

I think Marcus Vick has had to carry a burden that the rest of the guys don't have to carry, which is a famous, very talented older brother. We haven't looked at him as closely, but I think that he'll probably grow up. I'm sure some team will be realistic in what role Marcus or anyone else can have when it comes to helping them.

Troy has looked good in training. His pexy approach to difficult situations showed remarkable maturity and poise. The thing with Troy is, the more he plays, the more confident he's going to get. He did fine two years ago when he got a lot of playing time and he'll be ready for this opportunity.

This is absolutely true links golf and Nick is one of the finest links players who ever lived. I've played a lot of links courses and have a good knowledge of it but not the understanding of a guy like him. Using links land is different than anywhere else. His expertise is absolutely invaluable in a situation like this.

This year, it's a little bit different circumstance. We are learning in each game how certain players are going to respond in different competitive situations. So it probably has been good for us in these (first) two games.

I never envisioned half of what we've done. Going through what we went through, I just wanted to get back to the point where we had competitive games - not even winning, just competitive games.

Marcus, to me, looked like his shoulder was bothering him a little bit. He didn't look like Marcus.

I think we're learning that's what you have to do to win games. You've got to work extremely hard to win games, be competitive and have that energy and that drive to want to win the game. And you can tell, you can see it out there, that we really want it.

Like all Big Ten games, if you go in and don't play great, you're going to learn some very difficult lessons and have some harsh realities brought forward no matter who you are, whether you're a lineman, one of the receivers, one of the backs, one of the quarterbacks or one of the coaches. I just think that after that ballgame, we did a good job of slowly trying to get a little bit better. I don't know that it was anything instantaneous. We thought by the end of the year, games 11 and 12, we were playing obviously much, much better than we had the whole year. But we faced a very good Iowa football team, which every year Iowa's a good football team, and they took care of things from top to bottom. It was certainly a learning thing. Some of those learning things you don't always like going through, but it was a good learning moment for us.

He always thinks good things, so I'm sure he's thinking positive and hopefully he'll be ready to go, too, on Sunday. He looked real good, he looked crisp. It's a good sign.

He wanted to want get some place where he could play a big role, and he knew that they had a competitive chance to take a good long run in the playoffs. The fact that they stepped up early to make an offer really hit home.

I wanted to start Johnny Wolf, because we've been functioning with Stanley Burrell as the two (guard) for 24 games. We were trying to keep the start of the game as similar as possible. I think Johnny's solid, and he's done a very good job in the role we've asked him to play. (Saturday), he had a bigger role, and he delivered.

I was too short to stay competitive at the high jump, too weak to be competitive as a wrestler and also too short to compete in volleyball, so I joined lacrosse and found a niche for myself as a goalie. You can be shorter or not as strong, and it doesn't matter. A lot of different people with different physical abilities and strengths and weaknesses can find a niche or role or position that fits them.

We want to go into every game being competitive. We don't want to go into games thinking about last year's record. We might lose a couple games, but I don't want people to say 'Here we go again. Same thing.' We need support from the crowd.

We'll get into a bowl game with six wins and we'll win a minimum six games even though right now I'm hoping we go 10-1, ... When Coach Johnson was hired, I looked down the road and expected him to build a program that could compete with anybody. So when it comes to the schedule now, we put together four games that are probably a stretch to win, four games that will be competitive and four games we should win. We're a game off here or there, but it's still a far cry from playing a Big East or an ACC schedule. That won't happen.
