Dan Hawkins Oregon Quotations

There's an opportunity to kind of go, 'OK, we're finally home,' and Portland State, they did a nice job (in a 41-14 season-opening loss) against Oregon State.

If we beat Georgia Saturday, trust me, the headline Sunday is: 'Can you beat two BCS teams back to back?' ... No matter what happens, two minutes after Georgia, I'm going to say, 'Guys we got Oregon State. You better flush it.'

Got to give Oregon State a lot of credit. Got to give them credit for hanging in there. I was proud of our guys. We played much better than last week (a 38-13 loss at Georgia) -- not good enough to win, but some things to build on.

You've got to give Oregon State a lot of credit. They weren't ahead until the final ticks, and you've got to give them credit for hanging in there.
