Texas Tech Tangerine Bowl Press Conferences Quotes

---

Texas Tech Head Coach Mike Leach

"We are excited to go to warm weather. It has been tough here for

the last couple of weeks. I have been to Orlando a bunch of times

and it's a great city. The whole program is excited about going."

On the way bowls are selected in the Big 12

"The whole process has been so tangled up. The Big 12 has a bunch of

teams eligible so I knew there would be some shuffling going on."

On the importance of this game

"This game could represent our ninth win of the season and only one

of three teams in the last 25 years have been able to do that here.

That part is very exciting."

On Clemson

"Coach Bowden is a good guy. I haven't seen much of them. I was

able to see a few series of their game with Georgia but that is about

it. So we will get to work pretty soon on film."

Senior Quarterback Kliff Kingsbury

"It's going to be a lot of fun. Orlando has nice weather and we get

a great opponent in a good bowl game. I am excited."

"We really want to win this game so we will go at it full speed

ahead. There is always a sense of urgency especially now that this

will be the last game of the season. We are going to try and go out

on top."
