Rival Quotations

We were in an open field waiting for the arrival of an official, ... We discussed everything, we interrupted each other and said, 'That thing must be changed and that one's intolerable ... everything's intolerable.'

The region (5) we are in now is not as intense. It was good to play some of our old rivals again. Going to state is helping to make all of our team's dreams come true.

The Red River Shootout (the rivalry between University of Texas and the University of Oklahoma) has been a fixture here, set against the backdrop of the Texas State Fair, since 1929,

Women's tennis is at such a high level now that any of the top 10 or 20 players could give me a tough match. Martina is on her comeback and no doubt will reach the top again but I don't have a specific rival here.

I think that our rivals are afraid of us because they can see that we're united. And when I say that I don't just mean what we say in press conferences but in the key moments of the Giro when our team tactics are our winning edge.

I think we will get support. I think it's not where it needs to be, but it's gotten better. We're looking forward to having a good crowd. I think the rivalry (with LSU) from football might carry over to basketball. It will take some time, and wins, but it's better than it has been in years.

Fresno battled and battled, and you want to have a rival like that. I have so much respect for them. It's a shame that someone had to lose.

From my perspective, I think the stakes are just as high for Joseph, but there's still a rivalry there, so it meant something to him. But Ryan came out as the better wrestler, and I congratulate him.

I thought we possessed the ball pretty well in the first half. But anytime you get two city rivals together, it's going to be tough and it's going to be back and forth.

It is a good rivalry which makes it a good game. It always has been a good game. (The crowd and intensity of the game) plays on the nerves of both teams. I'm just glad we're the ones who won this game.
