Post Game Quotes (Texas A&M 45, Louisiana 21)
Kevin Sumlin, Texas A&M Head Coach
On difference between first and second half…
“We’re
like two different teams and coming into this week it’s about three
things. It’s about effort, which we’ve been getting. I think our guys
have been playing very hard all three weeks. It’s about communication,
which we are improving as a team on with being able to play as many
people as we played and getting guys on and off the field. With
communication comes elimination of penalties and things like that. The
last thing is execution, which is a work in progress."

TEXAS
A&M FOOTBALL PRESS CONFERENCE
HEAD
COACH MIKE SHERMAN
What about
the OSU game would you do over if you could? “I’d
try to eliminate the third quarter. We played three quarters of pretty
good football and one quarter of disastrous football. They had 37 plays
and 245 yards, we had 11 plays and 3 turnovers. I don’t think I’ve ever
experienced anything like that in my entire coaching career.
