Alonzo Moore
Senior, Wide Receiver

On the big plays he’s made so far this season
“I feel good, it’s contributing to the team so that’s what makes me feel real good. I can play a role on the team and execute when my name is called.”

On Oregon’s wide receivers being called the best in the country vs. Nebraska’s
“It’s real exciting, and I guess I’ll say on that little comment, we’ll find out on Saturday.”

On whether this game will be an opportunity for Nebraska to make a statement on how they’ve turned a corner since a year ago
“No, I look at it as just another game on the schedule. We’re not going to treat them any different than we’ll treat the next team. If we were to play Wyoming again, we’re just going to prepare throughout the week and just come out and play a good game.”

On the scrutiny senior quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. takes
“It’s a lot, you know. He’s a tough guy. You just can’t buy into some of the stuff that people say or what you go through. It’s a tough position to play. If I was in that position I probably wouldn’t handle it so well as he does, but he’s a tough guy for doing that.”

On running the flag sweep
“I like it a lot, just able to already be on the run and get the ball, I like it a lot.”

On the importance of the offense displaying balance between passing and running plays in the last two weeks
“It was huge because that helps with film. When Oregon goes to study film or other teams study film, it’s a balance. We can run or we can pass. So that was really huge.”

On whether or not the Oregon game means more to the coaches than just another game
“It means more to the players also, and the fans and just anybody, but it’s just another game. They’re on the schedule, so we’ve just got to play.”
