Forget the track meet comment. I thought this was Burt's best:
“The first five minutes of the game are going to determine an incredible amount,” Burt said. “They are going to try to dominate your soul for the first five minutes and break your soul. It is everything that we go and try to match their physicality from the very beginning, and that is what we plan to do.
“If you are composed and confident, every zoo is a petting zoo, when you think about it. What that means is that if we show great composure tomorrow and have great confidence, we'll see if we can ‘pet the Husky,' but I don't know if we will. You can't be cocky, and we are not that by any stretch, but you lose the game if you don't think that you can win.”

Pardon me if this is reported elsewhere. I haven't seen it. He might want to pull that one back, don't you think?
