Quotes about UH's DL

About how Georgia runs the ball very well, GM said:
"They run the football very well. Georgia's skilled at every position, but those three backs are outstanding. They're the best running backs we've faced." (HA)

About how their DTs are the key to their D, GM said:
"The heart of our defense is our tackles. Everything starts with our big 300-pounders. If they can cause enough disruption, the rest of the guys will have opportunities to make plays." (HA)

Praising Georgia's OL, Michael Lafaele said:
"They're big and they look pretty quick. They're not as sloppy as some of the other teams we've played." (HA)

Feeling that Georgia doesn't respect them, Lafaele said:
"They think we don't belong in this game. I think they're going to come down and try to run the ball down our throats, but we just have to play good football." (HA)

About how they rotate Lafaele/Watson/Laeli/Seti/Savaiigaea/Leonard at their DT spots, GM said:
"If it wasn't for those guys, we couldn't even run this defense. They're the ones pushing the pocket and starting the defense." (HA)

Happy that Veikune got All-WAC recognition, GM said:
"David Veikune is one of our best players and I was glad to see him get all-league. He has seven sacks and he plays half the time. He plays so hard that he gets exhausted." (HA)

About rotating Purcell/Noa/Veikune/Fonoti at the DE spots, GM said:
"We do that because we try to keep them rested and so that they have more energy. It helps their attitude and it definitely helps their endurance." (HA)
