Ego Quotes
If you're not happy with this win, fellows, you got a problem with your ego. I'm happy to win. It's been nine months since we won a game. I'm real happy to win. I told the players that . . . We won. That's a pretty good feeling. Now we got one more win than Oklahoma's got, and that feels pretty good, too.

Brad Quotes
Football is the most intense and physical of all games.

On Saturday, Brad crossed the line in adhering to that standard, and for that he must take accountability.

Career Quotes
The other thing that we had emphasized all week long was that it was everybody's job in this game to find a way to win. A lot of players had to step up individually and do that. Obviously the heart and the energy ? as well as the production ? that Marques provided us was just a tremendous punctuation point to the career that he's had at Virginia. He's been a special player for us in the things he's been able to do and how he's been able to energize this team.

Elsewhere Quotes
Sometimes it's a little challenging to understand what was on the minds of some of the players. Between the two state schools, there's been a lot of positive things going on with the football programs here. I have to wonder, why players would have to look so far elsewhere to find what they're looking for?

Certainly Quotes
This is kind of a 'Joe' team. There really are not many name players on the team. It doesn't mean that there aren't some talented players on the team, but there are certainly no big-name players on the team. It's indicative of the fact that we're all the same. They just come in every day and grind it out.

Aggressive Quotes
We've got some players who have more experience and more confidence, and as a result they've been more aggressive to the ball. They clearly have a better sense of anticipation about where the ball's going as a result of their experience. Their confidence is allowing them to be more aggressive towards the ball.

Battles Quotes
Our last message at halftime was something that we had said early in training camp. We just reminded the players that battles are not won by digging in. If you dig in, you just become a target. Battles are won by attacking. The players did a very good job of that, and they can be proud of themselves.

Badly Quotes
If we get into (injuries), then it's like we're setting a scene for not doing well. We believe in the players and we trust the players we put in the game. ? When you start talking about how badly you miss certain guys, then you're doing a disservice to those kids battling hard for you, as if what they're giving you isn't enough.

Committed Quotes
We had to play Mark Miller outside today which really just left us with a three-man rotation inside. It seemed like Antonio's time is here. He had a good week of practice. We're committed to playing these young players and the only way they are going to improve is to play them in the game.

Good Quotes
He was impressive on the tape, and he was impressive tonight, ... and that's what good players do. But most of his plays were underneath plays. There were some plays that I would have preferred that we could have gotten him on the ground faster, but in the long run, they weren't overly harmful to us.
