Head coach Brent Pry

Opening Statement:
"Obviously, disappointed. Ton of credit to Clemson. Good football team, thought they rebounded well. We unfortunately didn't. There's some good things out there that we did, but too many mistakes, untimely penalties, dropped balls, busted calls defensively, turnovers. You just can't be at a good team making the mistakes that we made this evening. Unbelievable environment, great fans, sellout, ton of recruits here. The blocked field goal returned for a touchdown, gave us the lead, and there's some good things we did. There certainly is, but we've got to clean some things up. We have to get healthy. We've got to be at our best. We've got two games in the season left. We've got an open week to get some guys back, get them feeling good, give us the best chance."

Safety Jaylen Jones

On Quentin Reddish's blocked field goal return for a touchdown:
"He handled it amazingly, like better than I did. Y'all see I had the same opportunity last week and he went and scored it. Quentin, he's going to be a great player. I'm proud of him, proud of his growth. Proud of the way he works, practices and he's going to be a great player."
