Quote of the Day

"And I thought our depth in the defensive line paid huge dividends in the second half because we were much fresher. And once again, I think the scheduling really hurt them. You can’t make light of that, I thought it was a huge factor in the game. I thought their kids weren’t mentally sharp in the second half, and that’s what usually happens. In the first quarter, you can fake it for awhile. I thought they really were not as sharp mentally or physically in the second half.”
