Bill Doba Team Quotations

I'm always concerned with a I-AA team that our team may look past them.

If (Brink) falls on his face, we're lucky as heck to have a darn good guy right behind him. It's a tough, tough decision. I love Josh like a son, and it's hard to tell a guy that the other guy's (it). But he's a man, and he was very good with it. He's still going to help this team and he's still going to compete for that job.

For these guys to come off two losses that were tough losses and play as hard as they did and as well as they did against the No. 12 team in the nation is a real credit to our players and coaching staff.

Kids don't care. Whoever can take them down the field and score and help them win ball games, that's who they will follow. In talking to one of our players, they said, 'Coach, this ain't no church league.' We're trying to win ball games, and whoever can get the job done and do the best job is who this team will follow.

It is a good opportunity to take a veteran team down there. It'll be great motivation for our players all summer.

I think you are a little more nervous because you don't really know how your team is going to react. To be honest with you, Idaho scares the heck out of me. I know they're going to be fired up and it's a big game for them.

We got embarrassed down there. They embarrassed us. And I was embarrassed myself for our team and our performance. It was tough.

Right now, they're leg-weary, both of them. The whole team is a little bit leg-weary.

It's always a concern when it's a I-AA team that our team might look past them. They've got talent. ... We have to be prepared.
