"We want to get into a BCS game, and we know what we have to do. And that is, we've gotta win each and every game we play. So every game for us since going 0-2 has been that way.

"I think you guys have more of a global view of everything," Kelly said. "We just don't operate that way. We're dealing with a day-to-day process.
