“I challenged my secondary at halftime. I told them to lay it on the line and make plays ... I am proud of this group of guys, because there have been some questions about whether we could play four quarters. Not only did we do that, we did it in overtime and won a big one.”
Bret Munsey
“It's big to get guys like Courtney back in the secondary to make plays because the D-line has been playing so well. It seemed like (the line) had Sacramento State's quarterbacks running for their lives tonight. That makes it a lot easier on the rest of us.”
Aaron Williams
“[Defensively, the Wasps played shorthanded, missing both starting defensive tackles and playing several first-year players in the secondary, a fact that didn’t bode well against W&J’s shotgun formation and spread offense.] We played extremely tough at first, before they figured out what we were doing, ... We had to play a totally different style of defense with only three tackles.”
Don Montgomery
“It was an overall team (defensive) effort. The defensive line played great like always, the backers filled, and the secondary stayed on their coverage.”
Chris Brady
“We just made a little adjustment at halftime pertaining to their secondary break, and offensively we played better. We started moving the ball, we got some easy baskets in transition off our defense, and we were a little more poised and patient.”
Lynn Frederick
“If the offensive line or secondary is not what the coordinator is coaching, that's something he's always got his eye on. Most of the adjustments that are made in a game are in the secondary.”
