We're journalists and we just pack it away. You don't get a special badge of courage for losing your home.

Players are tired of losing. They're tired of going home during bowl week and watching the bowl games on TV.

I can't think of anything more humiliating than losing a ballgame to a guy who steals home on you. It happened to me one time against Kansas City. I had a 2-2 count on the hitter - and Amos Otis broke from third. The pitch was a ball and slid in safe. I felt like a nickel.

You just want to go out there and redeem yourself a little bit, especially losing at home.

Losing to North Carolina is not good. Losing to North Carolina at home is worse. Losing to North Carolina at home on senior day? Awful.

It was great. It was the last home game for the seniors and through losing and everything we've come together. Everyone on the team is really tight.
