Postgame Quotes vs. USC

Nov. 1, 2025 (Lincoln, Neb.)
USC 21, Nebraska 17

On the tight loss 
“I think every loss is tough. This one is a little bit harder for me. I felt like there were things we could’ve done and plays we could’ve made to change the tide of it. I feel like we came out ready to fight, play hard, play fast. It was a tough one." 

On contributing to big plays
“I played well, but I felt like I could have played better at the end of the day. We weren’t able to come out with the dub, so I feel like, besides the positives that I contributed to, there are things I could have done better to help even more.”

On how the guys adapted to changes in the 2nd half
“We came together, for sure. I can tell you that. On the sideline, I felt like nobody was in a panic. We put our full trust behind TJ (Lateef). We knew he was going to come in and do his job. When he went down, the next guy up, we put our full confidence in the guys. We know how well we prepare.”
