On the play of freshman quarterback, Eric Sanders...
"I thought Eric Sanders did an exceptional job," UNI head coach Mark
Farley said. "I'm very proud of how Eric played. For a redshirt
freshman to go against one of the better defenses and with everything
on the line... what that kid did today was really extraordinary when you
think about it because he led our football team. He made plays. He
made plays with his feet, he made plays with his head, and he made
plays with his arm. What he did, I thought was very good."
On the outlook for the rest of the season...
"This is nothing that we're ever used to," Farley commented. "But yet,
we have to go back and look at it realistically. We've played number
one, number five and number six to the goal line. We could have won
each one of those games just as much as we could have lost them. We
can go back and look at ourselves and say, `We could have done this if
we could have corrected our own errors.' If we can do that, then we
can take off and do what we want to do the rest of the
season."
