More than anything, it just validates to the guys everything that they've been doing for the past three years. All the off-ice workouts, all the early-morning practices, everything like that. It really puts a value on it now, and I'm proud as heck of them. They deserve it.

One thing that I think we should have done more was run the football. In the past, I've been very stubborn, and we should have given (Bines and Hicks) more chances to carry the ball. We have the ability to run the football and control the clock, and we have to do that and keep our defense off the field.

That's history. I say history because it happened in the past.

I was mad I got in foul trouble the past two games. But my team had my back in those games. Coach told me to not put my head down and the team needs me. So I went back out and played hard.

Our players will be ready to go out there and compete, ... We always tell them you can't change the past, you can change the future. And that's what this is all about. If we go out there and win this game nobody is going to remember that we lost the first three.
