Postgame Quotes Southern Miss Head Coach Larry Fedora
On the loss
"No they don't get any easier; they get harder. It hurts more and more for me, and I know it does for these guys too."
On the defense
"We didn't make plays when we needed to make plays. Our guys made some plays, but we gave up too many big plays. We gave up some trick plays, and then we couldn't stop the run tonight. We've got to be able to stop the run."
Memphis throwing everything at Southern Miss
"They threw everything, and you knew they were going to. We just didn't know what to prepare for. We tried to prepare for everything, and anytime you do that it makes it hard because you're preparing for a lot of things that they don't do."
Memphis jumping out 14-0 to begin game
"It's 14-0 and you're scrambling to come from behind and try to get back in the ball game, which we did. Then we tried to get the run game started and got it going. You get in a situation where you kind of have to get off your game plan for a minute to get back into the game, and that's what we did."
Positives to take from the game
"There are a lot of positives. Our guys are playing hard. They haven't given up and they're playing their rear ends off. We've got to make plays. They're making more plays than we are right now. It's frustrating for everybody. Our special teams played better tonight. We just didn't make enough plays."
