Quotes by Al Wisnoski

“Playing without three starting linemen, thats pretty tough. Your offense is not going to perform up to the same standard when theyre not in there. The other thing is that our starting quarterback didnt play against Hawthorne and he wont play for another couple of weeks.”

“Our defense has been coming through for us. Thats the way its supposed to be.”

“All we can do is basic stuff at this point.”

“Defensively, our kids played their hearts out. We had three defensive stands in our own territory. If they go in (for a score) on any of those, who knows what happens?”

“Considering the situation, they did a good job. Its not that we were horrible (against Hawthorne), but were not going to overpower anybody.”

“Its the same thing we would do if we were looking at him on film. He rushed for 1,000 yards last year. Thats the kid we would stop.”

“Their size is a concern, especially because of the predicament were in. Speed, too. (Goodwin and Sweeney) are as quick as anybody we have.”

“We got whipped. Theyre better than us. When you play against a team that has 15 kids over 200 pounds and you only have three, its hard to play them.”

“We knew about their size coming in. We knew they were a fast team, too. Theyre probably going to be the best team weve seen all year.”

“Weve got kids who are making plays for us. But we need more kids to step up and make plays. Were just not very consistent right now. I think youll see that once we get our players back in their positions.”
