Teams Quotes
-
You saw the apparent schizophrenia of these teams. They play great for a while and then they have trouble operating. What you see is young teams learning to play a consistent game. No quality in the direction of their discipline.
-
I think both teams can do other things and make plays doing something else. But when you get down to it, both offenses want to run it. And when they run it, they're not looking for just first downs, they're looking to take charge.
-
The bottom line is, we didn't make shots. It's just disappointing that we played as well as we did defensively, and yet it's a 10-point loss. And we missed free throws. It's just not good enough if you want to beat good teams. You've got to play complete basketball, not just defend, not just rebound, it's got to be complete. We're either going to get it or we're going to continue to be a .500 team. We're either going to figure it out or remain an average program.
-
To me, Boise is a bigger game than USC. Boise has spoiled our party too many times. I think this is the year, and from now on, we should beat Boise. If everybody does what they're supposed to do, if everybody comes out on fire on offense, defense and special teams, there's no reason why Boise State should even be in the game.
-
I'd like to see some of the teams that got in play in the Big East or ACC and go 9-7, 8-8 in those leagues. Don't tell us you're picking the best 34 at-large teams.
-
I don't think this team realized how good we are, ... I think we are one of the top three teams in the country, I really do.
-
We hang in there with some pretty good basketball teams. (But) there is no substitute for experience. Young teams don't win against good teams.
-
I think that certainly is a factor in some of the scores. It takes more time to get a shot against a zone than it does man-to-man. Teams that are playing zone probably aren't fouling as much, so you aren't getting as many points at the free throw line.
-
There are some solid teams that we've beaten - and there's some teams that we should have beaten and didn't. It's just frustrating. I think we play better against teams like this and we get more geared up for them. I think they bring out the best in us.
-
This was a very intense game. I thought both teams played their hearts out. In a very charged atmosphere, I thought both teams played well at times and not so well at times.
-
We're not going to do something that isn't good for us or the teams, we like the 22-race calendar (but) we're fine with a 21-race calendar.
-
We trained hard ... but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization.
-
The teams that really believe in each other understand the game is not over. If your brother went out there and fumbled the ball, go out there and get the ball back for him. Let him know we're going to get the ball back. That's how you win games. If you feel sorry for yourself, it's over.
-
Certain teams are more careful in what they write. They generate less bugs. You can know that but it still doesn't mean there might be there might not be one bug that would be bad to ship the product with.

As much as we disliked the Yankees, fans and players alike, they were good for baseball. They consistently unsuccessful teams like the Browns, Senators, and A's paid a lot of their bills with those big crowds that poured through the gates when the Yankees came to town.
-
Both teams are making mistakes. Florida's making these itsy-bitsy little ones, and Tennessee is making huge, gigantic mistakes.
-
Though they're ranked No. 1, I still think they're underrated. Texas may be one of the best football teams to come along in the last 10 or 20 years. The reason is they have no apparent weakness.
-
Everyone feels pressure, it's how you deal with it that's important. It's very unusual for Aussie teams to have a losing streak like this, so you want to snap out of it.
-
I have been very disappointed in the behavior of both teams during this series and I would urge the coaches, captains and managers to get their players together and remind them of the importance of playing in a professional manner.
-
If we somehow could win a couple, our last 10 would be a very good record against top 20 teams. We have to keep grinding because that's what the Big Ten is about. We're playing against teams that beat us the first time, and we're trying to show we've improved by getting some of these guys on the way out.
-
There's quite a bit of pressure, but it's a lot of fun, it's enjoyable. I think one of the biggest things is being organised, having things written down. Keep the players aware of the other teams, what the other teams' tendencies are, and just to keep on top of things.
-
When you make mistakes against good teams, they come back to haunt you. We got careless with the puck.

-
We both played last night and I think both teams were a little worn down. In those situations, talent can get you through a game and Slovakia has a lot of skill.
