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.

That was spontaneous. I thought I'd take one last go-round, get a good look at everything. It was my last game.

I'll see what kind of feedback I get, but after the first two plays of contact, I forgot about it. It isn't 100 percent completely healed, but it's not bad enough to slow me down. I should be a lot further along in a couple of weeks, come playoff time.

I think Vince helped us out a lot. The defense has to be very leery of his attacking ability. When he was in the game, it seemed like the defense played a little loose.

It's another hurdle, another adventure life has presented me, and I'm going to take it in stride.

As a competitor, you want to be out there, making something happen, especially when the team is losing. But my time will come.
