Brian Calhoun Quotations

It is tough. You're up 'til 11, you're up at 6, and that's definitely hard on your body. But I wanted to work out. Obviously I wanted to run faster, but people know I can run fast. I have no regrets.

I haven't given it any thought this week at all.

They are a good team, but we couldn't make the big plays. We lost focus and we couldn't produce.

I don't think it surprised anybody on our team. Nobody gave us a chance. But we knew they were a little undersized and we could move the ball against them.

We wanted to have coach Alvarez end on a good note. Nobody gave us a chance. We deserved to be here and we won.

Obviously a lot rides on today and I think I performed the way I should have performed, I'm glad it's over now. I felt a ton better. My foot feels fine. And I think today was a pretty productive day.

I'm still kind of new to the program. I don't really know too much about the rivalry. I know a lot of guys really don't like Michigan at all.

I'm sure Barnett probably still thinks I'm not a running back. But that's definitely my motivation throughout the season, that I can carry a full load and be durable.

People know that I can run. But I want to go out there and run a good time just to show them that I can run (well) on a consistent basis, so that's what my focus has been.

You can't prepare for the kind of speed they have. We try to simulate it in practice when we go (starters against starters), but you can't duplicate that speed and athleticism. We just have to come out quickly and play fast from the first snap to match them.
