Karl Dorrell Team Quotations

Our team can move the football. We've done it against some very good teams in our conference. We also know how good the Big Ten is. For them to have success in the Big Ten, we know our hands are full.

That was neat. I was surprised. I'm very proud of what he's doing for our country. He was a member of our team at Colorado when I was there and now he's doing great things for our country.

They're talented, have great team speed both on defense and offense,

He's learned a lot. He's grown. He's matured, both physically and mentally, he's the best that he's ever been. Am I surprised that he's playing that way for us now? No. He's been visualizing this type of season for him. He's been visualizing having a great senior year and leading this football team and putting this offense into a position to do what it's doing.

The first play from Maurice Drew, that can get any team excited.

There were times tonight when this team could have folded its tent. We're not as good as we think we are. I told them at halftime that it was gut-check time, that they needed to show what this team was all about. They finally stepped up and made big plays when they needed to. I was very pleased with their enthusiasm and effort at the end.

We won a game up there last year that was a barn burner, that went down to the last seconds, so I'm sure in their minds, they have something to prove. In our minds, we have something to prove about the caliber of team that we are and the steps that we've made so far this year.

This Washington team is going to win some games before this season is over. We feel lucky we won this one.
