That's the thing with scheduling, you can't predict what teams are going to do from year to year, ... Right now, one of our team's goals is to make it to a bowl game, and that's a lot easier to do if you start 1-1 instead of 0-2.

Absolutely. You can't be 33-0 without good coaching, good kids. I thought fundamentally they did some things very well, and they got all the loose balls we didn't get. ... Today, the better team won, I have no problem with that.
