Lamar Owens Quotations

When you see a big name on your schedule, then you pay attention. I don't want to knock the I-AA teams or say anything bad about those guys. But our schedule as far as opponents go is pretty tough compared to what we've played in the past.

I would have been satisfied with a one-point win. But to see our offense take off in the second and third quarters really made a statement we are on another level.

I didn't do it for that long, you weren't even awake.

I would've been satisfied with a one-point victory. But we wanted to prove that we're on a different level ... To come out and play the way we did was phenomenal.

I think getting that record would mean a lot for our team because it would show how far we've come. I also think going to San Diego and winning the game would set the tone for this team next year.

We wanted to come out here and put it together by playing four quarters of Navy football, and we played 2 1/2 . We wanted to come out here and make a statement that when we come to play, we play for real, and that didn't happen. But we got the win, and that's all that matters.

I look at that trophy at some point pretty much every day. I think everybody in the brigade does, too. That trophy is a big point of pride for everybody here and it's something we want to keep.
