Coach Walt Harris Postgame Quotes
Syracuse vs. Pittsburgh
October 5, 2002 Syracuse, NY
PITT COACH WALT HARRIS:
"This was an exciting game for us. Our players played tremendously, our coaches prepared well. The defense played well while the offense got untracked."
"We exorcised a lot of demons up here that we've had for a long time. Though the middle of the third quarters, that was about the best we've played in a stretch. The hardest part of this game was to get the game over with."
"We had to play tough here because it seems like we had always found a way to lose. The past doesn't matter – what matters is this 2002 team beat them handily here. We've got a good team."
"I looked up at the scoreboard in the third quarter and saw it was 48 to 3, and I told my coaches that I didn't know how to coach in that situation. I hadn't been there before against this team."
"We tried a few new ideas today because obviously some of the things we've tried in the past didn't work."
