Quarterback Benjamin Mauck
On having to throw more later in the game
“It was a tough situation for us. They knew we were throwing, and they just had to stop that. We just didn't play well enough offensively."
On facing a tough defense
“I try to stay in the pocket longer and try to make the throws. Games like these build character."
On the performance of Wake Forest's offensive line
“Nebraska has a great defense, especially in the front seven, and unfortunately, some guys just got through. Overall though, I though they did a good job."
Running Back Micah Andrews
On the early turnovers and their impact on the rest of the game
“We knew that it wasn't their offense that was hurting us. We were just killing ourselves, although everything they got they caused."
On bouncing back after an 0-2 start
“We just need to keep reminding ourselves that we're a good team. We know that the team that takes us lightly will lose."
On the performance of Wake Forest's offensive line
“Our O-Line did a good job tonight. I'm supposed to find the holes, and I just didn't do that tonight."
Linebacker Jason Pratt
On the variety of defensive looks Wake Forest used against Nebraska
“We gave Nebraska a lot of different looks tonight. We played very hard on defense. We just have to make the plays."
On what Wake Forest needs to work on before their next game
“Every facet of our game needs to improve. We have to go back to practice and correct things on offense, defense and special teams."
On Wake Forest's early struggles
“I can't pinpoint an exact reason. The effort is there. We just can't make a lot of mistakes like we have in our first two games."
Punter Ryan Plackemeier
On improvement from last week's performance
“My faith led me to believe that I'm a better punter than what I showed last week. I spent a lot of the summer working on getting punts inside the 20, and I think that hurt me early on last week."
On the effect of the early turnovers on the team
“I was standing on the sideline wondering if anything else could go wrong. You really can't get mad, because the mistakes aren't because of a lack of effort. It's frustrating, but we have to pull together and back each other up. We have great players here and when we pull it together, you'll see a different team than the one you have the last two weeks."
