Quotes from a season preview article from the AP

Saying that he's going to operate their offense "full throttle", Colt said:
"Last year, we knew we were going to be good, but we didn't know how good. This year, we know we're good. We know we have the opportunity to win every football game and it's up to us to take advantage of that." (AP)


Hoping for an undefeated season, JJ said:
"There's always a chance to go undefeated. You always strive for that until you lose your first one. But we're undefeated now and that's the way it will be hopefully at the end." (AP)


About how they have set high goals (WAC title, BCS game), Adam Leonard said:
"We want to be WAC champs and we want to get to a BCS game, and anything below that, we feel would be a disappointment. So we're going to put the pressure on ourselves to go out and perform." (AP)


About wanting to beat BSU this year, Colt said:
"Obviously I would've loved to beat Boise last year and taken the WAC, but that's what this year is all about and that's what we're fighting for." (AP)


About how Colt understands their system better now, QB coach Dan Morrison said:
"Colt is at the point now where he can teach the system. He sees things that he didn't see before and has a great understanding of the system." (AP)


Happy with his greater understanding of their offense, Colt said:
"I feel like a veteran and it's an awesome feeling." (AP)

AP Note: "But Brennan will have a difficult time matching last year's record numbers. The Warriors, who led the nation in scoring and passing, play one less game and have several opponents that they should be able to blow out early."


Contrasting GM and Glanville, Michael Lafaele said:
"On the field, he's not like coach Glanville who's always in your face. He's real soft-spoken, so whenever he talks, everybody really listens." (AP)


About the showdown with BSU this season, Lafaele said:
"It's always in the back of our minds. We know when that day comes, we have to play extra hard." (AP)
