Mike Canales Quotations

That just shows we have a lot of depth at the quarterback position.

In the red zone, which we had been really efficient at, we miss a field goal and we miss a throw. Things like that you've just got to take care of.

A couple of times we did get out of the huddle late. We definitely have to push our tempo and get off the line of scrimmage. A couple of times we had the wrong personnel and the wrong guy in there. It was also the case of it being the first game. That happens in the first game.

That's Money Mike. He's going to make big-time plays, and that's why he's here. He's got big-play ability.

This first half we felt pretty good, (but) I'm not very happy with the second half right now. But we had four possessions in the fourth quarter, and we put it in the end zone in the fourth quarter. That's important to us.

We'd scrimmage in the morning, and then we'd hang out for 12 hours. We'd cook, we'd eat, and we'd think of the day when we'd be playing those games instead of watching them.

He'll do some great things. And you saw that on the (touchdown) pass.

We are going to be running back by committee unless somebody really steps up and asserts themselves.

We all take pride in what they've been able to do; we feel like we were part of it. I still consider them my closest friends. They're the guys you talk to on Christmas Day. It's the closest staff I've been a part of in 22 years of coaching.

I think this was a great night to complete what we've been doing and I think you can see the 'Cats going in the right direction.
