We have the swagger to prove to the conference that we're good enough to win it. We feel like we can be the Duke of the mid-majors.

You don't belong in a game like this if you don't feel good about yourself and walk with a swagger. If you think you can be stopped, this isn't the place for you.

We always want to win our conference and everything is gravy after that.

We had jitters in the first half. We were worried about messing up.

This is the biggest win I've ever been a part of. Louisville came out with a swagger in the second half. But I knew we could win if we just made some plays. About the end of their third quarter, their offensive linemen just started laying down.

I look it as my job to win, and I have to go out there and prove it. I have to show.
