Our guys played in some cold weather last bowl game, so it's not like they haven't played in it. But they play in it a lot more than we do. I don't think they play it in every day either. We're going to practice, make sure we understand our opponent, but more importantly understand what we're doing, then go play football. We're going to prepare like we do any other week. How do you prepare your players to not get stuck with that element out there in South Bend? Florida State does not play in 40 degree weather. Talk about this weekend, it's going to be very chilly and cold, below 40 degrees. We feel really good about our situation that we're in with our quarterbacks. They're going to need help from their teammates in order for that to happen. I don't know why it's a big issue with our quarterback situation right now. I feel good about both of our quarterbacks. WILLIE TAGGART: Just like any other time: the guy that practices well and does well, going to give us the best chance to win a ballgame. What is going to go into your decision about how you're going to handle the quarterback situation on Saturday? Working really hard to be able to play our A game and also be clean in the way we play. We understand that, but we also appreciate the opportunity to be able to go up there and play, knowing we have to play our A game in order to beat these guys. WILLIE TAGGART: Well, we're very excited about the opportunity for our football team going to Notre Dame, playing a top four football team in their stadium, hostile environment.
