Ben Tate Quotations

There are things I need to work on like pass blocking. They know I can run.

I get to show what I can do a little bit. I don't know if we're tackling or not, but hopefully we are.

Some of the linebackers tell me what they're going to do. Steve Gandy told me he was going to put the 'boom' on me -- knock me out. I just laugh. I don't know if we're tackling or not, but hopefully we are. I get to show what I can do a little bit.

There was no doubt in my mind that I could definitely play at this level. That's something I can do, just keep working hard and trying to better myself and learn from Kenny Irons.

It's helped me a great deal. I get to study plays beforehand. I'll be leaps and bounds ahead of everybody in my class as far learning the offense.

I just needed to get hit. Once I got hit, I was OK.
