Jim Boyd Quotes

«I knew it had been awhile, but I didn't realize it was that long. Our philosophy is a little different. We don't start with an easy schedule. We try and get teams that will really challenge us and really prepare us well for district play. You do that and you're going to take your lumps, but you're going to be better. You just don't progress unless you play the best.»

«We need a little payback for Storm Lake last year. They kind of ruined our season and we haven't forgotten that. We want to show people we can play well against them. They're a very good team, a very physical team. They like to throw a lot, so it's going to give us a different set of problems. We want to rise to the occasion and come back with a victory in week two (of district play).»

«Defensively we were playing scared and weren't coming out and being aggressive. Offensively we had to put a drive together and with Caleb hurt, we had to do some things to be able to move the ball. I wish I could say I had a stroke of genius, but I really didn't. When you look at it, we just kind of went back to basics and ran our leads and ran our option and that put us in good scoring range.»

«What really sparked us was we ran an option on the right side and Brandon pitched it at the last second and it went to Chris Newman and we thought he was out of bounds, but he turns it up field and goes 50 yards for a touchdown. That gives us momentum and I think the next drive we get down in kicking range and big Joe does a great job with a 37-yard field goal and that really pumps us up.»

«We tell Brandon he has one person to beat. We feel there's going to be some kind of blitz or seepage and he has to be able to recognize that and get away from that. When you do that, someone's going to be open in the secondary and Chris was wide open.»

«We get the ball back somewhere around the 30-yard line and we're out of timeouts, ... We're scrambling. We try to put together some plays to try and get into the end zone, but the reality of the whole thing is Caleb broke off his route and went into the end zone and Brandon threw him another perfect pass. Caleb makes an exceptional catch and now we're tied up and we got :05 on the clock.»

«Kickers are a little different and you've got to be careful with them because they think too much, ... Before this ballgame I talked to Joe and I said, 'Joe, just go out there and kick the ball. Don't think about it. Just go out and kick it because there's going to be a situation where we need you in this ballgame,' and sure enough, here it was and he came through beautifully for us.»

«They scouted us and watched the West Lyon game. They realized Chris Newman is kind of our feature back and they game-planned to take him out of the ballgame and they did a fine job of stopping him,»
Author: Jim Boyd
«We just didn't have the ball. I think at one point they had the ball for 20 minutes and we had it a total of six, ... When we got the ball we had terrible field position, so it was a situation where we couldn't do what we wanted to do. We struggled for quite a bit of that ballgame, but the kids came through when we had to come through.»
