Pre-Game Quotes

Jim Grobe...

"In this case I know we’ve had some barn burners games with those guys. That’s what fuels rivalries is when you have great competitive games. Sometimes you have rivalries, but they are one-sided. Certainly in this series, you have two teams that both expect to win every time they play. So that makes it a little more exciting."

Jordan Feuerbacher...

“I don’t think we have any concern about how we’ll bounce back. We were talking after the game and in meetings yesterday - we’re still in the driver’s seat for this thing. We still have a lot of football to play.”
