That's the gutsiest coaching call I've ever seen. I think a lot of credit goes to Coach [Urban] Meyer. Obviously, it was his call. Then again, if you miss something like that, you're a moron.

Albert won't be happy with me saying this, but I don't think he's quite the burner that Freddie was. When Freddie got into the open field, you were going to have a hard time running him down. Albert is the type of guy who's consistently reliable. Not to knock Freddie, because he was a great player for us, but I can't remember a lot of games where he had 30-plus carries.

That stuff impacts the way guys play. I know this, we're ecstatic to be here. But, I'd think we would be happy with any bowl. Given how our season went, we're fortunate to be anywhere.

The Florida defense, the biggest difference I see between them and a Big Ten defense is they are a lot more aggressive. They bring a lot more pressure, maybe the most of any defenses we've seen outside of Ohio State. I would say they are faster than most defenses we face in the Big Ten. ... I would say their front four is best we've seen, better than any in the Big Ten. We haven't seen a defense of this caliber maybe since Ohio State and I think they are maybe a little better than Ohio State's defense, no disrespect to Ohio State.

I know we're a team that could be better than we are right now. I think that's the most important thing. As far as what we know right now, that's what we know -- we know we can improve, and we also know we need to improve.

I think any time you have both programs having a lot of success, there's going to be a lot of attention. It's going to be tough for players on both sides to block out all that attention.
