I dropped an interception that would have sealed the deal. I'll probably see that play the rest of my life. I let it slip through my fingers.

I remember it felt like we never had a chance to win that game. This year it's a chance to get a win in Memorial Stadium, which not many people get a chance to do.

I'm going to give it a shot. If I'm not good enough to play I can accept that, but I've got to at least go out there and give it everything.

Their quickness hit us all of a sudden at the start. We were lethargic.

It's a good opportunity for them to finally take that next step. We've gotten real close a couple years in a row now. With that schedule, they'll get a lot more respect if they go down there and beat someone like Oklahoma or Texas.

You're going to go the rest of your life knowing the last game you ever played in was a win.

We've heard all about TCU all week long since we've been here. (Saturday) is going to be all about the Cyclones.

When you get behind a great team, 14-0, like we did, you can't hardly ever make it up. It was harder to make it up against those guys because they've got so much team speed.

We don't get much TV exposure around here.

If a few guys step up, Iowa State should be pretty scary next year. We're real young still. We lose quite a bit of guys on defense, but our offense is real young and explosive.
