Todd Monken, head coach
On moving forward:
"The good news is we've come a long way. We control ourselves. We have good talent, we have good coaches, and we just got to do better. There was just too many things where we did poorly against a good football team."
On Marshall's defensive performance:
"Doc [Holliday]'s done a great job. They're one of the premier teams in our league. Athletically on the back end they are as good as anybody we've played and we've played some pretty good people."
Nick Mullens, junior quarterback
On team's performance:
"I think we just made too many mistakes to win. Coming up on the road, especially against a good opponent, you just got to find a way to play the most perfect game you can. I think we lead in almost every statistical category, but this game proves that doesn't matter one bit."
On team morale following the blocked field goal in the second quarter:
"It's hard to take the wind out of our sails this year. You can tell at the very end, we were determined to score, we were in the redzone with a minute left and down by 21, but we fought because we wanted to finish strong."
Brian Anderson, senior linebacker
On how he thought his team performed:
"I think we did ok, we had opportunities to make plays. At the end of the day our job is to keep them from scoring. Overall the effort was good, we just got to capitalize."
On moving forward:
"We have to just go back, make our corrections and it's on to the next week and prepare ourselves for the next game, this one is behind us now. We know we messed up, we just have to let it go and move onto the next one and make sure it doesn't happen again."
