Barry Alvarez Last Quotations

It's absolutely fitting that this is my last team.

I tried to avoid making a big deal about this being my final game. I had some emotional moments -- the last game at Camp Randall (Stadium), the ceremony after, the banquet.

It's going to be a very physical game, a game where you're going to have to take on linemen and stop very outstanding backs and then still respect the throw. Where last week was you're spread all over the field, this is a little more conventional.

I try to stay away from making a big deal about this being my last game. I've had some very emotional days. I just always try to cherish the days before a bowl game. I'm trying to approach this one like I do all of them.

The guys are smart enough to know that this was a mismatch. These guys lost seven players (to academic suspensions) last week. They're very thin.
