Joe Paterno Quotes

«I think they got a little tired, ... It was like in 1994 when [former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky would come over to me and say, 'Please don't score in a hurry; we'll get tired.' »
«He has to hang on to the football, ... The one thing about Tony that I have always worried about is that he has a tendency to be careless with the football. He is a good back. If he pays attention to the little things and spends a little bit more time with tapes and watching blocking schemes and things like that he can be even better than just a good back. He has speed and he is strong. He's a 225-pound tailback.»
«That kid is a good quarterback, ... He scrambles well and has got a lot of poise, but we let him off the hook too many times.»
«Northwestern is a very, very clever football team, ... Northwestern will be a challenge for us, believe me. Believe me.»
«We're not that bad, ... There were a couple of plays -- the onside kick, the fake punt -- other than that ... those are things that we can rectify. It was just people falling asleep.»
«It's a little different what you are doing in practice and when you are in a ballgame and want to make an extra yard and you get a little bit careless with the football. That should come with experience.»
«It's a little different when you are doing it in practice and when you are in a ballgame and want to get an extra yard and you get careless with the football... That should come with experience.»
«I thought the defense was absolutely superb, ... There was a lot of pressure. One mistake and it's the entire ballgame.»
«They have a great tailback, ... Last year they had two great tailbacks. They make up their minds they are going to run and intimidate you. When your offense (goes for over 550) yards against a team like Purdue, they are a heck of an offensive football team.»
«They're unusual kids, ... They have an awful lot of poise. They are not hotshots. They like to play. They know their place. They have a little deference to the upperclassmen - in a nice way. They're just really good kids.»
