STANFORD QUOTES

Head Coach Tyrone Willingham
"It's an absolutely fantastic feeling to beat a team the caliber of the University of Texas. It is a special night any time you beat a top 10 or top 5 team. Tonight is the biggest win we've had (since he's been here).

(on bouncing back from last week's loss)
"It shows the resilience of our young men. It is very exciting to see a group of young men bounce back and not let the past effect them."

(on Chris Lewis)
"Chris did a great job. It's tough to step in against a team of that caliber, but he did a great job."

(on DeRonnie Pitts)
"He plays like that all the time. If you get the ball near him, he makes plays."

(on Stanford's defense)"Tonight shows what we can do. If we come out with the right energy and the right focus, this is what we're capable of doing."

Quarterback Chris Lewis
"This is a great feeling. It's my job to put the ball in the hands of our big playmakers."

TEXAS QUOTES

Major Applewhite
"Stanford played a good ballgame tonight. I think we showed good signs at times and bad signs at times."

"The difference in the third quarter was we got some confidence from our big plays. We had a big play and that's the way offense works. You get a big play and feed off of it."

"I never thought we had it locked up. We went back and forth and our defense gave us every opportunity in the first half, but we didn't take advantage of it."

"We got ourselves in trouble, but it should have never come to that. We're very disappointed with the loss. We didn't play our best game at all."

Hodges Mitchell
"We played as long as we could and as hard as we could, but we just ran out of time. We didn't lose this game, we just ran out of time. I thought we were going down to the last snap."
