"I could not be more pleased with the way that our fans have answered the call," says 2007 BIG EAST Coach of the Year Brian Kelly. "This football team has won nine games, set school records on offense and defense, and has generated several all-Americans, but the most memorable part of the season for anyone associated with our program was seeing Nippert Stadium sold out on three occasions. I cannot wait to run out of the tunnel at Legion Field and see our fans all clad in black as we take on Southern Miss and go for a school-record 10th win of the season - it is going to be great!"
