Nov. 5, 2001

CORAL GABLES, Fla. (www.hurricanesports.com) – University of Miami head football coach comments on the Hurricanes’ current ranking in the latest Bowl Championship Series standings released Monday afternoon:

“We’re very pleased to be ranked second in the BCS, as well as being ranked number one in the two traditional polls. As we’ve said all along, the most important priority for us is to win our games. Our team understands that we can only accomplish our goals as long as we win. It serves no purpose for us to worry about anything else. The polls will take care of themselves. If we continue to win, we’ll get the chance to play for a national championship.”
