Using prevent defense only prevents you from winning

When you go to prevent defense, the only thing it does, it prevents yourself from winning. So Greg [Berhalter], if you're listening against the Dutch or the Netherlands or the Holland or whatever you want to call 'em, don't park the bus. Keep your foot on the gas. Be free, live free. Have the American spirit flowing through you.

The current top four teams should stay in the College Football Playoff regardless of conference championship outcomes

What I'm gonna say though is I think it should be the four that are in right now [Georgia, Michigan, TCU, USC]. I think it should be those four. You shouldn't get penalized for playing an extra game while the other people are sitting on their couch. I would love for it to be this four.

If USC loses, Tulane should be put in the College Football Playoff

USC loses put Tulane in. That's what I'm gonna say. Willie Fritz got the boys going.

The Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier

Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.
