They switched up their defense a little in the second half. [The turnovers] were what haunted us all night. We just never got into the flow of our offense.

Our defense kept us in the ballgame all night long. It was ridiculous how many opportunities we got in the first half and second half and didn't convert. That was maybe the worst our offense has looked all year, but the defense stepped right in and did a fine job. Our defense got burnt for 53 points and about 400 yards against U.M.S. and every week since then they've gotten better and have improved. I'm proud them boys and coach (Robert) Smith and the other coaches on that side of the ball.

This was a great way for us to start our division. We just have to maintain our good defense.

We kept getting stops. Our defense gave us a lot more opportunities on offense to kind of spread the lead. Eventually, we did that.

Our run defense has been great all year. Nobody has been able to run the ball on us, and we don't feel that anybody can.

We're going to be OK.
