S. Walker Loss Quotations

We expect to post an operating loss here in the fourth quarter and do not anticipate a significant improvement in this business until 2001.

We've been very fortunate that the loss of life in Alabama has been very, very minimal.

I think it was a good week for us. We accomplished a lot with some of the practice we had in the off week. We're trying to improve our execution and do the little things a little bit better. ... We think we can correct some of the problems we faced in the heartbreaking loss to Penn State.

We wanted to make sure we didn't have another loss here. We wanted to finish undefeated in conference. We didn't want to have any upsets like we did last year. We came out focused.

This will challenge our maturity and how focused we come out as a team. It's going to be an exciting one and I think it will challenge us to see if we're mature enough to put that loss behind us and win as a team.

Finally the press that we tried to put on for 40 minutes culminated in some very tough passes for Vermont. Obviously this is a tough loss for Vermont because they had the game won.

It was a tough loss but I've always been impressed with my team's resilience and I think they'll bounce back. I think we'll get ready for Wisconsin and I think we'll play our best football game of the year.

That loss was on our minds, but you can't let it carry over into the next game because then we won't be able to focus on what's in front of us. We're going to have to work to get our spirit back. It kind of fell off a little bit, but I'm pretty sure it'll be coming back real soon.
