vs. Penn State
Quarterback Matt McGloin
On the controversial fumble
"We're not going to get that
call here. We're not going to get that call ever, against any team. It doesn't
matter who the referees are, we'll never get that call."
On the wind
"It's always tough. A couple
of times the ball carried on some corner routes, but it's the same wind for
them so we have to deal with it and keep playing."
On the turnovers
"If you turn the ball over
three times, you can't win against a team like this. They'll find a way to
win."
Running Back Zach Zwinak
On Nebraska's defense
"Coming into the game we
knew they were going to be a good defense, and they were going to be concerned
with stopping the run, considering the wind today."
On what he saw on his 50-yard
touchdown run
“An opening. The hole opened up,
and I just ran. It's exciting because there's nothing between you and the
endzone, and you just have to outrun the defense."
Cornerback Stephon Morris
On what turned the game in the
second half
"They just kept fighting. We
were fighting too, but they made more plays than we did. The losses that we've
had have been all about the second half."
On the controversial fumble
"The referees did they best
they could, but we put ourselves in that situation. We could have gotten some
more third-down stops, we could have stopped (Nebraska quarterback Taylor)
Martinez, and we could have stopped the run. You can't leave the game in the
referees' hands, we know that. They're not perfect; nobody's perfect. That's
just on us."
On if they played well enough to
win
"We had opportunities to
win, and we should have won. That was a game we should have won. We could have
played better, but at the same time we should have won that game. We gave away
that game."
