Snaer recently cut Missouri and UCLA out of the picture.

Kevin Love and Sebastian Telfair gave the Wolves a huge boost off the bench in their recent double-overtime loss to the Spurs and Randy Wittman is reportedly considering moving them into the starting lineup.

"I've got to look at it," said Wittman. "It's early. I don't want to look at that, but I'm seriously looking at different things."

"I think that in the world of football, a lot of times there’s a temptation to pick up rat droppings when elephant droppings are flying everywhere. So we try to focus on elephant droppings around here."

I'm angry and I don't understand

"We'll look at the tape Monday, but I don't think we do anything," Chow said. "What are we, 3-5? You stay the course. That's all we can do. He didn't lose the game. He didn't play very well, but he didn't lose the game." [...]

"The idea is to evaluate everybody, and Kevin will be under evaluation and we'll decide who gives us the best chance to win," Neuheisel said. "To me, it looked like he had just made up his mind and was throwing the ball where he thought it had to go, and I don't know if he was using his eyes enough.

"From where I stood, it looked like he was making quick decisions and wasn't giving us time for the route to develop." [...]

"We have to figure out some combination of players that gives us the ability to be balanced," Neuheisel said. "An off week really gives you an opportunity to delve into that."

"He's focused on winning a national title, and even though he won't say it, he wants to show people he's the best point guard in the country."

"Bulldog fans. Don't miss your chance to see history. The Bulldogs are ranked in the Top 25 and heading south this weekend looking for their first-ever win at the Rose Bowl against the Bruins of UCLA."

"We go back to work tomorrow."

"It's one loss just like last week was one win. It's one loss. What choice do we have?"

How does that controversial hire look now? Neuheisel took a depleted, injury-ravaged team that appeared to be completely overmatched by Tennessee and pulled the biggest shocker of the opening weekend, 27-24 in overtime. The newly toughened Bruins bear scant resemblance to the faint-hearted teams of Karl Dorrell. Neuheisel might have the best coordinators in college football in DeWayne Walker, Norm Chow and Frank Gansz Jr., but credit the head coach for the in-game psyche job on quarterback Kevin Craft to keep him from crumpling after four first-half interceptions Monday night. How the rest of the season looks: Before this, a winning record looked like a stretch. Now? Who's going to count the Bruins out?

"They were crying about the quarterback situation; I knew darn well they'd be ready for us,"
