Six-and-three is OK. We're still in contention for the Pac-10 championship, so I guess we're content, but we're only halfway through it. Our confidence has grown winning these two games, but every week you just basically start from scratch again.

It feels like we just won the Pac-10 championship.

I dreamed of this moment. And to be this close to the Pac-10 championship and still get some accolades for me, that's special.

When Earnhardt's not in contention for the championship, when he's not in there for the chase, it's just not the same race. He's probably still hanging on because of his advertising and riding his daddy's reputation. Maybe he'll be up there with the leaders next year.

It was great, ... Three other interns and I came in, and they said 'OK, you're going to make our Web site.' It was like, whoa, but it was cool and we did it.

I want to play for a championship team. I want to win a championship.
