Nick Ferguson Game Quotations

When I was in high school, my mom hated football. But then, the more I played, the more it grew on her. This game has done a lot for my family - not just from a financial standpoint, but it also helped bring my family together.

Like most athletes, I like to go home and relax. I try not to bring the game home with me. I might play some video games that are, let's just say, for mature audiences only. And I might get some flak for this, but I like to watch 'Seinfeld.' Sometimes, laughter is the best medicine.

Last game, I told (Williams) and Domonique Foxworth, I said, 'You guys have something as rookies that I didn't have when I was a rookie, and that's called confidence,' ... They have that swagger to them where they're not really intimidated.

That's how the game goes. Sometimes it bounces your way and you make a play that play. We didn't have the ball bounce our way and we had that this year. It just so happens in this particular game we didn't get a lot of that. I thought Champ was going to make another spectacular play like he has all year, but he didn't make the play.

They didn't really do anything that surprised us. I think we had an excellent game plan, and we just didn't execute.
