NEBRASKA VOICES

ON NEBRASKA’S POOR START

‘With the turnovers, we thought if that continued it might be a ridiculous game. At least the team was able to rebound in the second half.’

Frank Solich, Nebraska coach

ON MIAMI’S ABILITY TO SCORE

‘Miami lives and dies with big plays and they were killing us all night long.’

Jamie Burrow, linebacker

*

ON MIAMI QUARTERBACK KEN DORSEY

‘We tried to move around but he knows how to pick up and he knows how to toss the ball. He’s a confident quarterback and he wouldn’t let anyone rattle him all year long.’

Dion Booker, safety

*

ON NEBRASKA’S PERFORMANCE

‘We didn’t show up today. That’s what happened.’

Thunder Collins, running back

ON HALFTIME DEFICIT

Dahrran Diedrick, running back

ON LARGE NEBRASKA CROWD

‘Before the game we were seeing a sea of red everywhere. We didn’t really give them an opportunity to get involved.’

Chris Kelsay, defensive end

*

ON INTERCEPTION BY MIAMI’S JAMES LEWIS

‘That’s what they’ve been living on all year--deflections and scoring touchdowns on defense....I should have caught it and to see the guy running with it and see him score a touchdown, it was hard.’

Tracey Wistrom, tight end

*

ON MIAMI

‘They talked the talk and walked the walk.’

Keyuo Craver, cornerback
