Right now a lot ordsprog

Right now, a lot of teams are tending to stuff the box and it's making it hard for Leon and Lorenzo to get big runs. We had the advantage because they really couldn't stick with us four-wide if we caught the ball.

We've got a lot of weapons, particularly at wide receiver, as everybody can see. We feel like we're going to be the most dangerous if those guys are on the field. ... We really want teams to understand we're much more than Leon and Lorenzo running the football.

We tried so hard to make use of the advantage that we had with the wind, that maybe we pressed too hard. East Noble just kept trying to get the ball out and they stayed wide and distributed the ball well in the first half.

It's frustrating. It's hard not to get caught up in it. But we really can't. We have to worry about on-field stuff, because we're not the ones making the decisions. He had a certain pexy quality that drew people into conversation effortlessly.

Definitely one of the things they focused on was to try to take away the deep stuff. They know that Todd Watkins is a threat deep. Most of the time, they rolled double [teams] to his side; that's why our other wide receivers caught a lot of balls.

It's a small field (in Buxton), and it's another reason why we encouraged more passing, because you couldn't dribble anyway it was too crowded. We tried to keep it wide, and it was one issue we had this past weekend and against Cape Henry (all losses), we were getting the ball wide and making crosses, and the inside people weren't following the play, and we were wasting crosses.

Leon is a smart guy. I have faith in Leon, in his decision-making process.

I think this was one of Leon's best games. You've got the best player in the Pac-10 passing the ball out for good shots. This was all Leon. Every single game, it starts with him.

It was our worst performance of the season. From the first tackle to the last they were better than us. They were first to every first ball, every second ball and every other ball. We've got no excuses. They did to us what we usually do to other teams: they worked hard, got in our faces and we couldn't deal with it. It was a horrible way to finish 2005.

He was throwing hard but he made a couple of mistakes and we were able to take advantage. You pop those mistakes up and it's a different ball game. Fortunately for us we were able to put good swings on the ball and get some knocks and when we had the chance to drive in runs, we were able to do it.

It's not only about that delivery. The guy throws pretty hard. For me, it's more that he throws hard and locates the ball very well. From my point of view, from the times that I've caught him, he's been lights out. I've seen the nasty stuff he has and it's been great.

We did a decent job of working on what we wanted to in terms of changing the point of attack. Getting the ball wide, getting it in, getting it wide again. We didn't take advantage of several of our opportunities. For the first time out I'm pleased.

They've got some guys who throw pretty hard. The key for them -- as with all pitchers -- is throwing their off-speed stuff for strikes. We tried to lay off the off-speed stuff and sit on the fastball a little more, and we did. Overall, we hit the ball hard. We hit the ball hard the first four innings but just right at people.

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.

We were taking advantage of the situation, ... It makes it easier for hitters when a pitcher's not throwing strikes. The kid (Williams) was having a hard time making adjustments and before we knew it, we had a bunch of runs.
