NEW MEXICO HEAD COACH ROCKY LONG
(on UNM’s bowl game practices): “I think they’ve been going real well, until day before yesterday. I thought we were real rusty. They’re getting real tired and bored right now, because it’s been a long time since we’ve played. So I think they’ll get more into it as the game gets closer. That’s been my experience the last two times I’ve been to a bowl game.”
(on what he knows about UCLA): “I know they’re practicing all this week in the morning. There are rumors that (injured starting QB) Corey Paus is going to play. I’ve been told by their people that offensive coordinator Kelly Skipper is calling the plays. Which is a disadvantage for us, no matter who’s calling the plays, because coach (Bob) Toledo called every play for the last seven years. You don’t know how they’re going to call their plays or whether they’re going to change things.”
(on the motivation of UNM’s players): “They’re saying all the right stuff. In my opinion, if they’re saying the right things, they either believe it or they’re trying to convince themselves. I don’t think they’ll be happy with just being there, so I think they’re excited about playing and they want to win and by game time, they’ll expect to win.”
(on the “reward” of playing in a bowl game): “I honestly believe it’s more of a reward for the kids that have put all that time in and didn’t get to play, than it is for the kids that got to play. The 60-man roster we take on the road, they got to take trips, we’ve done some fun things on trips and they get to play in the game. We have another 50 guys that show up every day, that get beat up every day, lift weights just like the rest of them and they don’t get any benefits during the regular season.”
(on whether UCLA is the best team the Lobos have faced this year): “I’m not saying they’re the best team we’ve played, but physically they’ll be the best, most talented team we’ve played. They’re not a lot more talented than Texas Tech or North Carolina State, but they have a lot of blue chip-type players.”
(on the UCLA offense): “They do a lot of everything, but they want to run it, throw it, use play action. They’ve become more of a 50/50 team since they’ve had to play freshman quarterbacks. They have two real good running backs, one (Fr. Tyler Ebell) is like Dominique Dorsey (of UNLV) and then they’ve got a big powerful one, too. I would think they’re going to try to pound it at us, and then try to use play action pass to throw one over the top.”
