“Our game plan is first year, a .500 season. Second year, a conference championship. Third year, undefeated. Fourth, a national championship. And by the fifth year, we'll be on probation, of course.”
Paul Bryant
“It's nice to see the one versus two all year finish the season one and two. Two undefeated teams, no controversy this year, and it's going to be a great atmosphere.”
Matt Leinart
“We could have gone undefeated in the regular season and lost in the first or second round and felt like a failure. This year, in my mind, we're a little bit of an underdog. If we make a great run, we would be surprising some people.”
Bruce Weber
“Brett is undefeated in the 50 free on the year. There are ten guys only a tenth of a second in front of him and ten guys a tenth of a second behind him, he has as good of shot as anybody.”
Tim Powers
“We had a lot of pressure on us after going undefeated (in the regular season) last year. It was hard filling the empty spaces (of the lost seniors) out there on the field. It was hard to find people that have the natural passion to be a leader. Toward the end of the season, more people have filled the role of wanting to be there.”
Caitlin Sullivan
“When the game is on my birthday, it means a little more. We are undefeated and we want to go all the way through the rest of the year that way.”
Will Walker
“There's a little bit of pressure this season because we've been undefeated within the league the last two years. We're the team on everyone's minds.”
