We try to create and manufacture ways to play with teams the caliber of LSU. I thought we battled them about as well as we could have.

I thought maybe slotback or wide receiver, ... I came here as a wide receiver and I always wanted to play offense. But I wasn?t going to go and seek it out.

We've been getting good play and we've gotten good contributions from our bench.

We just didn't play as hard as we could have in the first half and we got down by a big number. It was hard to come back after that. We stopped ourselves a little bit, and we stopped doing the things that put us in the game.

We came into this game feeling like we were the underdog, so we just wanted to play hard the whole time. We'll enjoy this one right now, but Washington's a good team. We'll have to get right back at it.

We know it's going to be a close game when we play them. I knew I needed to come out and pitch a good game and hit my spots.
