It’s one of those things where it takes time to go away, … When you’re out there you’re not even thinking about it. Millions of guys play in pain in a lot of sports.

I’ve got to congratulate the coaches. They came up with a great plan.

[For the first few days on campus, the Leaks lived together in Chris’ apartment. But after so many years of sharing a bedroom while growing up, that got old pretty quick.] Chris said to me,...

Since the first day, coach Meyer has said I am his quarterback. I have all the confidence that this is my team. I am the captain of this team. I am so confident in these...

I’ve known those guys all through high school. It’s a fun time for all our families to get together. It’s going to be an enjoyable time for all of us.

My timing is better, and as a team, were more experienced, … So, most definitely.

You’d have to ask DeShawn that. Of course he wanted to play bad last week, so that was keeping him alive.

That was one of the plays we put in for this game. The line did a great job giving me time to make the throw, and Dallas did a great job catching it.

I always say things happen for a reason, … If C.J. hadn’t gotten pulled from that game in Georgia (in 2002), Chris wouldn’t be at Florida right now, and that’s the bottom line, and he’s...

It means you’re a true Gator. Before you walk out that tunnel, touching that gator, it gives you the confidence that you have and lets you know that all the sacrifices the older guys in...

(Meyer) challenges you. If you’re a competitive guy, you’re going to want to get better. You’re going to take the challenge.

I went up there just to see my friends, see how they’re doing. Those guys are contributing and doing a great job. I just went up there to enjoy myself.

It was a great team win, … We just came out there and played our hearts out. We stuck together and came up with a big win.

I’m so proud of our guys and the seniors. Iowa is a first-class team. We should feel real confident. It’s a real big victory for momentum (into next season) and two big wins will give...

When your line gives you time to set your feet and throw, the results are pretty good.

There are plenty of ways to attack the defense.

He wants to play towards your strength, and he’s going to put in plays that you’re confident in and that really give you the confidence going out there.

We’re just concentrating on playing for the Florida Gators, and being accountable for one another, and playing together. That’s how you win games – playing for each other.

It’s easier now because they can just pick out what (Florida gear) they want to wear.

I’ve just got more experience. A lot more experience now in reading defenses … being able to anticipate things. The more experience you get, the more you grow.

Two big wins gives us a great start for next season. Iowa is a first-class program and whenever you beat a team like that, it makes you very confident.

It was awful. I had a high fever and I was throwing up. Terrible. I felt just terrible.

There are many ways you can lead, … I just try getting guys and talking to them and just trying to get them confident in themselves.

Not turning the ball over is a big key to winning football games,

It was a little hard getting into a rhythm during the game,

I had guys calling me to see extra tape this summer. That was special,

It’s just fine. The main thing is being out there and playing with those guys. I never want to let those guys down. I want to be out there with them.

It was a great win for us. It was good to finally get a bowl win under our belts. Two big wins at the end of the season gives you confidence going into the off-season...

Whoever establishes the running game will set the tempo of the game, … Our running backs will have to play a big part if we want to win this game.

It doesn’t bother me that they said that, … Of course they are going to try and fire you up before the game. I won’t talk about his mom or anything, but I will try...

I have no words for it. The atmosphere and the crowd are amazing. It’s really special for the coaches, players and families.

Being a captain on this team is a big honor,

You’re just more comfortable and able to anticipate things better. That’s the major thing about the second year.

It happens all the time in football, … Guys have [knee] sprains — a lot worse than what I’ve got. It’s just one of those football things.

With Andre out and the guys behind him injured and beat up, it kind of hinders what you can do on offense.

He is a very passionate guy, … He wants everybody to get better. He wants everybody to be great.

[It’s] just normal treatment, whatever they do for a bruised shoulder, I guess, … Just icing it and keeping it on track.

A lot of guys were at that game and played in that game. I think a lot of guys are more focused now. It makes them that much more hungry I guess.

When you have pressure like that, it’s pretty hard to get your feet set to throw,

You were always a fan of the Florida Gators, especially if you played offense. They always had a big-time offense.

It was a huge win against a great team. All we’re focusing on is that we’re 3-0.

I’ve had the receivers and the running backs in here all at the same time, which is about 15 to 20 guys.

I think you have to have a running game in the SEC. You have to have that balance. Teams are too athletic and too good not to have that.

I was totally dehydrated. But once I got the IV in me, I started feeling a lot better.

I’m going to go no matter what, … I want to be out there with my guys. It’s a big game.

With Andre’s speed, he could have been one of those guys where two (defenders) have to go with him. It could have been a great advantage for us getting other guys open. That’s one of...

My shoulder is fine. It’s just a bruise. (The shot) was just precautionary. I’m going out and playing like I always do. I just want to make sure I’m doing the right thing and taking...

It makes it even better when you go out and earn it. The guys respect you for it. They’ll go out and they’ll play hard for you. That’s a good feeling to have.

Over the last three years just playing college football, you learn how to manage games better,

That’s something I admire about them. They get players you don’t hear much about in high school but a bunch of them end up being drafted.
