Rusty Wright, Head Coach
Opening statement.
"Good win. I mean, anytime you win, it's a big deal, especially in this day and age. Happy for those coaches and those players. It's, it's hard. It's a lot harder than what that score looks. A lot of young guys out there running around, I mean a lot, and we've got to get better and a lot of a lot of areas. But, you know, really happy and, let's see if we build on it and see if we can learn and keep going and give ourselves an opportunity to play a little better moving forward."

On the overall performance.
"Well, I mean, there's a lot of things that were good. There's a lot of things that were bad, but you know sometimes winning that first one is the hardest one. When you have as many new guys as we have, especially. I hope it gives them a lot of confidence because we're going to get tested a lot more than that. And again, hopefully winning for the first time gives them an opportunity to do that."
 
Marquise Freeman, LB
On preparation coming into today.
"It started with our preparation on Monday. The whole defense came with the mindset of we're not going to get it wrong, starting on Monday, and then we'll show it on gameday. We successfully did that tonight."
 
Justus Durant, RB
On today's gameplan.
"We had a conversation before the game Friday night, and we just knew the job that we had to get done. Especially the last two weeks that we had, so we talked and we just fixed everything, got everything right tonight."
 
Camden Orth, QB
On the offensive line performance tonight.
"Yeah, no doubt the offensive line was moving. They were creating a lot of lanes for us and we were able to run through them and get to the second level. They just made something happen, so it's great to see. They got to show off a little bit with the running game."
