Obviously, he made a heck of a play. But all I know is when we got to the sidelines the coaches were saying we have to tackle better. That's two weeks in a row that big plays and missed tackles have cost us.

It just happened so fast. My hand got jammed in an awkward spot. I knew as soon as it happened that it was definitely broken.

I think this week might be the healthiest our secondary has been in three or four weeks. Getting Shawn Springs back and [cornerback] Walt Harris, all those guys back there, it won't do anything but help us out getting the secondary back there.

I thought we played great. We didn't have much attacking play, and that's what hurt us.

In the first half our defense was nonexistent. We mentally broke down for a three-minute period.

We had a horrible record during the season, and everybody doubted us coming into this tournament. But this shows that we've got a lot of heart and that we're tough.
