Head Coach Matt Entz
On the game…
“It took all three phases at different times during the course of the game. There’s plenty to learn from. It’s the first road win against a team that we are going to be playing yearly in the PAC-12. To come into place that has a great atmosphere, it showed the resiliency of the group of young men that we have. There were times in this game that they could have folded, but they kept swinging. I’m excited. There’s no such thing as a bad win. There’s ugly wins.”
“There difference maker today was special teams being opportunistic. We limited our penalties. We did a good job of handling the noise and the pressure of playing in a big game. This is a great game to build off of.”
“Preparation is critical. When you’re prepared, there’s still pressure in this game, but there wasn’t stress on our sideline. We’ve gone through these moments in practice. We’ve put them in these situations. That’s kudos to our staff and our players for buying into our preparation, so that we can win games like this one.
