We've been waiting on this for a long time. We've had our struggles, but these kids have worked hard and gutted it out this year.

Micah made big plays. Micah's a special kid and we're glad to have him.

It's a big task, but we're ready and we're up for the challenge. We're just going to go out there and have fun. Play together and play strong. We really won't have much pressure on us because we're the underdogs. I think we'll have a lot of fight in us.

We knew this season was going to be fun, coming out without any superstars or anything. We knew if we came together as a team and worked hard, we could accomplish a lot.

With all the uncertainty, you were the right person for the job. The ship's been righted. I'd like to say, 'No, we're not going to accept your resignation.' I guess that's not possible.

They were coming at us so we just had to take it up a level and go right back at 'em. There was a little bit of nerves [at the beginning] and we just calmed down. We came out in the third and just played hard.
