Gary Barnett Good Quotations

Watch out for Missouri. Brad Smith -- he?s that good a player.

I thought our defense was on the ball. We had a good plan and sort of knew what they were going to do. I thought we tackled well. They had one new formation for us, and only a couple of new plays. The kids adjusted to (those) pretty well.

Just because you can be good doesn't mean you're going to be,

We shot ourselves in the foot too many times. Miami's a good physical team and they have great speed, but I thought we matched up decently. They just didn't make the mistakes.

We have to discount the teams they have played and just look at their production. We have to figure that were playing a pretty good football team.

Brian was a good player for us. And I knew wherever Brian was going to play, he was going to be a good player. He has great speed and good work habits, and he's an explosive player. So, that doesn't surprise me a bit.

Sometimes you go down there wondering how good you are, and I think the players came away with a lot of confidence. They are disappointed - that was not a moral victory - but it was an encouraging performance by a lot of guys.

as good of a practice as we've had on a Wednesday. We had good spirit and executed very well. It feels like we're almost there.
