Bob Morton Quotations

When you stick a straw in a soda and suck on it, everything goes down.

We've always known the destructive powers of hurricanes. The difference now is that we have that much more information. It's that much harder to ignore.

When I was a kid we really enjoyed their visits. They were so open and friendly and generous with the hugs, and they spoke with these thick accents. We loved listening to them.

I look through the team and I can honestly say I can't see a weakness,

I have a feeling if we don't take care of that, he (Weis) will.

If that rascal had tumbled down, it would have been all over,

I think we should do a little bit to keep the environment from filling up with trash.

I think we can knock them off their pedestal. I think we can do them but, more importantly, the team think they can win. No-one needs to tell them what they have to do; they all know.

Our pitch is top-class and the lads enjoy playing on it. I'm sure we are a better team at home although I'm not making any excuses for last Saturday's unexpected defeat at Tow Law Town which was only our third in 29 games.

Whoever wins on Saturday will go through, ... They are on a high after three wins, but we are also unbeaten and if we win, all we would need is six out of eight points in our last game against Bedfordshire.

While we have the utmost respect for coach Willingham, his staff, his players and the university, ... after last week we know we need to make a lot of adjustments and a lot of corrections within ourselves, and we're really concentrating on fixing ourselves before we head out to Seattle.

We learned that we could stand toe-to-toe with the No. 1 team in the country. But we also learned what you can't do with the No. 1 team in the country. You can't give them chances. You've got to finish them off when you can.

We all should be in a foul mood to make sure we get down to earth.

Very similar. Very similar. And that's something I'm actually quite excited about.

Even now, we've had a month to prepare for Ohio State and we're still getting new knowledge about the game plan. Even though it's 99 percent in, we're getting new things here we're going to do and little nuances of the offense are still being put in. It really makes it fun and exciting.

There was miscommunications between us and the officials as far as what the rules were.

It's a shame to see them at the basement. They are a fantastic club and I wish them well, starting after tomorrow's game!

It wasn't going to be that easy. I saw the referee waving his hands over his head (to stop the clock) with six seconds left. As far as that's concerned, if that's the referee's call, then it was done correctly.

It's definitely more of a business atmosphere than I've ever experienced in a bowl situation. It really feels like we're getting ready for a football game like we did during the season.

It's really pushing yourself to the limit. I think nasty is really pushing your body, yourself and your mind to the absolute limit.

I keep reminding people that it's not over yet, but if we play as we did on Saturday then we should be OK.

The chandelier started going and the floor started shaking. Someone yelled get under the table and so we did. The sudden violence let us know that this was a bad one.

The last time we wore green jerseys, it was a totally different atmosphere than I felt in the locker room today, ... We didn't get overexcited, we didn't spend our energy in the locker room. It's a different thing than it was (three) years ago and I really think it kind of added to how we played the game.
