Fresno State Head Coach Pat Hill Quotes

Sep 11, 2004 | General

On the game early...

“Our offense clicked well in the first half, but we gave up big turnovers. We gave up big plays early.”

 

On QB Paul Pinegar...

“Paul’s an outstanding quarterback. He used the field well. Except for the turnovers, his ball control was good.”

 

On Fresno State’s program and team goals...

“This is the eight year of our program, our expectation level is high. Our goal each year is a BCS game and we are still at the main table. If we win, we take the other team’s chips away. We are all in next week. We expect to win.”

 

On RB Darren Sproles...

“He is an outstanding player. Our goal was to work hard on defense. Our goal was for him to respect us after the game because we respect him.”

 

On playing at Kansas State...

“I am honored to play these types of games, but we expect to win. I have a lot of respect for Bill Snyder and the things he has done here.”

 

On the wind as a factor...

“The wind is a factor here and that was an important part of our game plan. Our team understood what to do when we were heading towards the north. We had a big push for the third quarter and we did a good job of keeping under control. Our defensive, offensive and special teams combined to play well.”

 

On K-State’s offensive threats...

“He is a good player [Dylan Meier]. He was having success at the end of the first half against our zone coverage. But Allen Webb is explosive. He is a threat. K-State has a big running game and a big offensive line and their rushing attack could break loose at any time. We worked to contain Sproles and hold him up. He is strong.”

 

On Fresno State’s team...

“We have good speed, but are not overly big. We are a young team. There is still work to do. Our young players need to step and they did in the second half. We need to keep playing Bulldog football, practice hard and take that on the field.”
