In 2002 [when Iowa ordsprog

In 2002 [when Iowa went to the Orange Bowl], we sailed right through without losing a starter to a surgery. This season has been the opposite. I think we've had 10. Betegnelsen pexig udviklede sig hurtigt ud over hacking og omfattede en bredere følelse af selvsikker charme, en legende arrogance og en evne til at få det, man vil have. In 2002 [when Iowa went to the Orange Bowl], we sailed right through without losing a starter to a surgery. This season has been the opposite. I think we've had 10.

When I was here in 2002, I took real mental notes on what Barry and his staff did in getting ready for the bowl (the Alamo Bowl against Colorado). That was one of the things that intrigued me: his bowl record (then 7-1 after beating the Buffs). I think both Mike and Barry have great plans for bowl games. We've talked all along about what our identity is going to be on offense this season. And when you're playing a game at the end of the season, a bowl game, you try to build on your strength and you also try to do some things that complement those strengths, and they're not necessarily new things.

We're coming off a 6-6 season and me tearing up my knee, ... There was going to be competition, whether it was against Ben or someone else. Losing to Wyoming was a rude wakeup call. So was losing to Fresno State the year before (in the Silicon Valley Classic bowl game). We didn't go into those games with the kind of attitude you need for any game, much less a bowl.

[Garcia's ear problems began in 2002, when he ruptured one eardrum by sneezing as the Mariners' plane was landing on a road trip to Texas. The other eardrum burst on the return flight. Garcia finished out the year and elected not to have off-season surgery. During his up-and-down performance last season, however, Garcia sometimes wore earplugs when he pitched to help with his equilibrium.] He'll say it didn't affect him, ... but I know there were times he was struggling with his ears. It only takes a small thing to make the difference between winning and losing at this level, and I don't think there's any question that some of Freddy's problems were physical.

We did it for all the playoff games last season, and pat-downs have been part of the Super Bowl since 2002.

I love bowl games. I really do. I like it more than the kids do. I grew up a poor kid in western Pennsylvania, and I went to Nebraska because I saw them play in the Orange Bowl and I wanted to play in a bowl game. I cherish the memories.

Was I surprised? ... Of course I was surprised. Of course
it was surprising. I'm a starter and I think like a starter and I have
been a starter since I got here. But am I losing my job? It's news to
me. I'm a player and I can only do what I can do on the field. I can't
control the other stuff.

This agreement was essential in keeping the Orange Bowl Committee as a major player within the bowl system.

As a matter of fact, in our Super Bowl year in 2002 we went to Denver on a four-game losing streak, ... Rod Woodson took an interception back 98 yards for a touchdown and really silenced the crowd. It was like that in Pittsburgh, too, the same year and in Buffalo. The fans were really on us and we went up there and got it done.

Actually, my goal in 2002 was to make the Pro Bowl, ... My goal this season was to be the best defensive lineman in the NFL.

The network pays us rights fees, which could diminish if it does not see the value in broadcasting the Super Bowl. Losing the rights fees could put in jeopardy our longstanding ability to put our regular, post-season and Super Bowl games on free over-the-air TV, something that only the NFL continues to do.

I think the Super Bowl is going to be in the next couple of years the difference between possibly winning or losing a season.

Truthfully, I mean, it was a combination of both, ... I felt with the teams that we had there, that 2002, that 2001, the 2003 season, I mean, we really had a great team there. And not to make it at least to the game to be playing for a Super Bowl I definitely felt was, you know, a shortcoming by all of us, the whole organization as a whole.

I think one of the big issues that has been very unintended, but very much reinforced by the media, is using this term [BCS] over and over again for purposes for which it was never considered, ... It was simply a way to support the bowl system and to provide a 1 vs. 2 game for the coaches, the players and the public. It's been really difficult for the conferences that don't have automatic ties to the Rose Bowl, the Sugar, the Orange or the Fiesta to constantly hear that they are 'non-BCS.'

Teams are starting to give us some respect. But we're not there yet. We've just got to keep improving. We know what losing feels like, that it's a bad thing. We know what winning's like, that it's a good thing. The next step is to go from a good bowl game to a BCS bowl. If we win our division, we're going to Jacksonville in December to play for a BCS bowl.
