Steve Spurrier Plays Quotations

We threw one up, but we should have tackled the guy somewhere. We should have been able to run that guy down, but we couldn't do it. That was just one of the big plays in the game. Nah, 28-7 is no safe lead for us. We didn't force a punt in the second half, so it wasn't safe. They should have scored another touchdown.

Whoever plays hard, whoever plays well will have a chance to be the captain the next game, ... We're beyond going by years in school.

We have our quarterback whisper. I found that's a lot easier on the ears, ... That way nobody can hear anything but the center. So he just whispers to the center, we snap it and run plays that way.

We'll go let Antonio throw it around and run it around and see if we can make some plays and stay on the field offensively and slow them down defensively, ... If we do those things we certainly believe we have a chance to beat Auburn.

We don't have that person. It's hard, ... We're not looking for that person right now because no one plays that well that's a senior or an older guy. We just don't have an older guy that is a dominating-type player that can be a leader.

We'll have to see how it all plays out. Certainly Blake is our starter. He threw some errant balls out there today. Blake didn't play his best; he knows that. He's still the starter, but it was encouraging that Cade sort of proved that if something happens he can go play. We thought he would be. We'll try to get Cade as ready as possible. He's definitely second right now.

It was an unusual game, but the Gamecocks won, and that's what we came here to find out. I'm not going to feel too bad, because a few plays here and there, they beat us.

It was a tough night, but we're 1-0 and we're not going to sit around and cry about it because we won the game. It looked easy early and all of a sudden it got tough. I'm not going to be moping too much because a few plays they beat us. I'm going to enjoy being 1-0.

It will be a completely different game plan. We'll have some new ball plays for these guys.

I'm not going to feel bad because a few plays here and there, they beat us, ... I'm going to enjoy being 1-0.

I just think we couldn't hit anything. You have a lot of plays ready that you'd like to get to. Shoot, we never got to them.

I don't want to praise our guys too much for beating this team. Had a few good plays here and there. Still a long way off.
