I thought at the first of the year that USC was definitely No. 1 and nobody deserved to be No. 2. But this team is definitely No 2.
I thought USC had a lot of depth and did a tremendous job of substituting, but he'll still wear you down.
Young people go to Texas and USC to play in games like this.
I feel what USC has done is phenomenal, and until someone beats them, they're still the national champions. I think it should be them No. 1 and all the rest of us No. 2 until somebody else proves otherwise.
First, let me thank all the Texas fans and let's congratulate a great USC team. Second, we want to thank the Rose Bowl. I'm proud of these kids, I'm proud of these coaches.
Coach Royal and I have talked about this from the beginning. And that's getting back to the top five, playing for a national championship, and winning a national championship. Young people come to Texas and USC to play in these games.
