"I felt better about our effort tonight but we made too many mistakes. Each time we made a mistake, Drake made a shot. Every time we needed a stop, we couldn't get one. But give Drake credit for making big shots."
"We continued to fight hard defensively, but we just made some mistakes. We got it to our three-point shooters, who knock down those shots. Unfortunately, it was a night when neither of them could get one to go."
"In the first half we turned it over 11 times and that's too many."
"We're at home so you expect to make runs and get the crowd into it, so you always think you are in the game and something good is going to happen. They've got a lot of seniors and they made the plays tonight."
"We missed a few shots and a few of our guys got down. But they need to realize we've still got confidence in them to keep shooting. I think we got a little timid tonight but it was not a lack of intensity."
"Every game is a must-win for us. Now we have got to prepare for Missouri State and put this game behind us."
"I'm happy with the win. We've been playing better and better of late but we just hadn't gotten the wins. We played hard tonight for 40 dog-gone minutes against a good UNI team."
"We had a couple of breakdowns on the perimeter but it's so hard to guard Coleman and Stout that somebody can spot up and hit some threes. They've got so many good players and that is why those things happen. Those errors will happen and you just try and limit those errors. Coleman and Stout are almost impossible to stop on the block."
