Opening Statement
On his general thoughts on the game
“I’m proud of our team, it doesn’t just happen to get a win on the road. In general our team did a good job of answering scores. We knew coming in this team was going to spread us out, obviously their quarterback is a heck of an athlete, and some were pretty quick hitters. They had some hits but it’s even more difficult when you’re not tackling.”

On answering Nebraska’s scores
“I think it’s huge. Football is a game of momentum, and anytime that you can answer a score, there’s a feeling to it. You love to match a touchdown with a touchdown, a couple times it was a field goal. Regardless, if you can answer a score with a score I think that’s a sign of a good offense and today we were able to do it.”

On facing Nebraska’s spread offense
“Each spread team is different. I think [facing multiple spread offense teams] gives you more film and what it comes down to is you have to execute. The struggle always when facing a spread team, it says it, they spread you out. If you don’t win those one-on-ones, can’t get those extra hats to the ball, you’re susceptible, there’s no doubt. That’s an explosive offense, giving them a chance.”
