I'm hoping that it's more of a defensive game. They're a very explosive team. They've got good athletes coming back, and that's what makes them very dangerous.

That was the game plan. To come out here and play defense.

We moved the ball between the 20s.

When I look at all these professional athletes when they are 50 or 45 years old, they have knees that don't work at all, shoulders that don't work, back problems, and I think that that's a much more common occurrence than a guy who is 40 or 50 who has serious problems because of some steroid he was taking when he was 20.

Try not to laugh when someone says these are the world's greatest athletes, despite a paucity of blacks that makes the games look like a GOP convention.

The Pac-10 looks forward to participating in the Hawaii Bowl. Hawaii is a wonderful destination for our student-athletes and our fans and Hawaii has an affinity with the West Coast that makes this a great fit for the Pac-10.
