Zac Taylor Quotations

We're going to have the opportunities next year. We've just got to take advantage of them.

We have to get back to a Big 12 championship. I don't think there's any doubt in our minds that we can win the North.

We've seen a lot of games. I was actually watching ESPN Classic the other day and they showed four Michigan games in a row from this year. We've seen plenty on them, and we know what they're going to do.

It is a game that can really help put us back on the map if we win it.

Looking at the situation, I think I've improved a lot the last two years. The two years I was there they had some quarterbacks who were better than I was. I saw the writing on the wall. I just thought I'd find an opportunity playing somewhere else, so I decided to leave.

I think our passing game will improve this week.

I was pretty down on myself. I remember the first two weeks. It was good day, bad day. This spring I'm hoping for a lot more consistency.

I was pretty disappointed with the way I played. I made some very poor throws I wish I could have back. I was kind of wishing we could play another game the next day and put that last one behind us. Luckily, that was just the first week, and we got a win.

We have something special going here, so we're just going to keep going.

We're living on the edge. I wouldn't say it's dangerous, but we're definitely pressing things a little bit.

You don't need much motivation to play in a game like this.

You hear people talk about Tommie Frazier, Eric Crouch and Scott Frost. So you know you're in good company. You do get a feeling that playing quarterback here is really a big deal.

We showed them that Nebraska is back on the rise.

Cory, he's the man. We needed a senior leader right there to step up, and he came through for us.

Every time we come out of the huddle for a new drive, we feel like we are ready to break out. It is just a small thing here and there. We get stuck in third-and-1 and don't convert it. We know we are due for a breakout game here.

It's been a whirlwind since I've been here. It just seems like I've been in college for 10 years now.

It keeps us all motivated when you know you're not the for-sure guy. You can't become complacent. Hopefully I'm the starter against Maine. I know the four other guys will work hard, too.

It's what I set out to do in the beginning, and I'm glad it all came true.

It was just kind of a miscommunication on which way we were supposed to go. It was supposed to be a handoff at the line. It didn't work out.

Against Mississippi State they blitzed over half the time. They don't have much to lose.

I never could have imagined a situation like this. It'll be a lot of fun. Everything will be put aside once the game starts, and then it'll be just another game.

I feel healthier for some reason. I feel like I'm moving better and I feel stronger. I might not look that way, but I notice it in myself.
