    We didn't get a body on people like we should have. It was that their big men were getting all the boards. A lot of rebounds went long, and went over me and Willie's heads. When a rebound goes long, Florida has the advantage because they're on the outside.

    We didn't get a body on people like we should have. A lot of rebounds went long, over our heads and out to their (guards). But this was a lifetime experience for us, something to tell our children and grandchildren about. Just a great experience.

    During the seventh round (of the draft), I spoke to my agent and he told me a few teams were interested. The Giants were the only ones that came at me hard and I felt comfortable going with them. They told me I'd be a tight end or an offensive tackle. It doesn't matter to me (which position I play) as long as I get on the field.

    They didn't do anything different, we just weren't on the top of our game. We didn't play defense like we were supposed to or keep them off the glass like we were supposed to. We just didn't come out with our 'A game' today. I don't think it was the pressure or the atmosphere, we just came out flat.
