Steve Spurrier Throw Quotations

If we didn't have a passing game, we didn't have a chance last night, ... If we didn't throw the ball successfully, we'd still be out there trying to score probably.

I don't know exactly what our offense is going to look like, ... It should be very similar to what we did at Florida. We hope to be a balanced team with the run and the pass. We hope to be able to run the ball straight at teams, and if not, try to throw it over their heads.

He's just going to play through it. We're going to stick with him. He's OK. Hopefully he can learn from it. That's what you almost have to do -- let a young guy go play and learn from this. He's got a lot of potential. But we can't ask him to throw 50 passes every game. That's for sure.

I was watching him call plays. I said, 'That's a fun way to call it.' You go back and throw one 60 yards downfield. If you don't hit it, who cares? You're going to run it for the next play and you get to stay on the field. We're not near in that category.

We'll go let Antonio throw it around and run it around and see if we can make some plays and stay on the field offensively and slow them down defensively, ... If we do those things we certainly believe we have a chance to beat Auburn.

Sometimes, I think they think it's really a difficult thing to throw and catch and complete long passes down the field, ... But the talent level is here to do that.

He's an excellent athlete with his ability to run, just like the Texas quarterback, Vince Young. You hope to try to make him throw the ball and not beat you running. We're going to try to contain him and try to cover their guys and try to get pressure on him.

If he touches it, he's going to come down with it, ... He has tremendous leaping ability. When in trouble, we say throw it high to Sidney.
