My approach to the game has been the same at all the places I've been. Vanilla. The sure way. That means, first of all, to win physically. If you got eleven on a field, and they beat the other eleven physically, they'll win. They will start forcing mistakes. They'll win in the fourth quarter.
Bear Bryant
No coach has ever won a game by what he knows it's what his players know that counts.
Bear Bryant
You try to make your team do something they're not capable of and you get murdered.
