UNI head coach Mark Farley
"I'm very proud of our football team. Good things happen when you play
good football. To beat a good football team you have to make a play
(56-yard touchdown pass) like that."
"Credit the crowd for the sacks, we responded to the crowd."
"To hold that team to 75 yardds was a tremendous effort by our defense. We won the line of scrimmage on both offense and defense."
"We were a very focused team all week long."
UNI senior linebacker Andrew Williams
on winning today's game
"It's the greatest feeling ever. I kept telling the team ' keep your
composure, keep your composure.' We had a couple of calls that went
against us, they have to do their job and we have to do ours.
on pressure going into the game
"We didn't really feel any pressure. We were just ready to play. We
wanted to stop their offense and we went out there and did it."
on his first career start
"I'm a fifth-year senior and I've been here for a long time. Each
individual has their job and this week, my time came."
UNI junior quarterback Eric Sanders
on the difference this week to last
"Focus. This week we came out with the mentality that we were going to
win the game."
UNI junior running back Darian Williams
on his offensive line and their blocks
"The line was making big creases for us."
on the fourth down play in the fourth quarter
"I was surprised coach let us go on 4th-and-1, but we were in sync and
we got the first down we wanted.
the team's mindset going into the final two games
"Coach stresses winning and staying focused. It is on our shoulders."
Western Kentucky head coach David Elson
"The big play was the 56-yard touchdown pass. They made the play and we
didn't. Then we had a chance to move the ball and we didn't and they
stopped us. We just didn't get the job done."
"It hurts for our 18 seniors. The best we can do is 7-4 and now we have to get ready for the next one. We've got a great bunch of guys that work their tails off and are great leaders."
"(UNI) had their backs against the wall, but coach Farley does an excellent job."
"We had pressure on (Eric) Sanders but we just couldn't get to him. He's just a good player. He can keep a play alive with his mobility and he helped (UNI) keep those drives alive."
