That's the best deal about this game. First and foremost, there's a tragedy going on down there. The game is secondary to people's lives and homes lost. The game has to be on the backburner.
More Quotes from Sam Keller:
It's extremely important (to believe USC is beatable) if you want to win. If you look at how good they've done and how good they are, you're beating yourself before you step on the field. They are just college kids just like us.Sam Keller
It was my first camp as a starter. I'll always remember that, just because I have been waiting for this my entire life. I felt like I really grabbed hold of the team. I didn't know how they were going to respond to me. I knew I had a lot of friends out here, and I knew I had a good rapport with a lot of them, but I'm just really pleased with how the guys have my back.

People say I have a lot of fire, I'm a little more emotional. But I also learned from Andrew to have a balance of being calm as well and prepared.

He's the man. He's probably the most consistent offensive weapon we have.

We're going to try to score every time we get the ball. Given that their offense is so darned good, if they score a lot of points, we're going to have to score a lot of points, too. I could see there being a shootout, but I think our defense is good, too.
Sam Keller
It's the nature of the position that only one guy can play the position. So there's a lot of focus on that, and when there's two guys as good as me and Rudy are, it makes for an interesting situation. But it's all how you look at it. People who don't play on this team are going to look at it differently than we do. We look at it as, we're all men out here and the best player's going to play.
