UNI Head Coach Ben Jacobson
"Creighton started both halves well, give them credit for getting it done. We had good looks at the beginning of the first half and good looks at the beginning of the second half but we just didn't knock down the shots."
"If you want to be in the race you have to win your home games."
"I liked the way Brian Haak played. It was the first time we had both he and Jared Josten on the floor at the same time. He understands what we are doing on the defensive end of the floor."
UNI Guard Travis Brown
"Defensively, we have to work harder and contest the shot more. We just have to contest it better. We've got to get more stops and then get the ball to our post players and get some easy shots."
UNI Center Eric Coleman
"A lot of our guys are not used to losing and right now we are on a little skid. I think our energy is still high and it's stil early in the season. There is still plenty of time left to change things around."
"The sense of urgency is always there. We just need to carry over what we are doing in practice into the game situations."
Creighton Head Coach Dana Altman
"We played hard tonight. I thought the effort was good. Our guys hit big shots when we needed to. We made some bad fouls at the end but overall it was a good effort."
"Dane (Watts) struggled in the first half but I felt we needed to get him going in the second half. He made a good read and hit the three to begin the second half. After a disappointing first half, I thought he really played well in the second half."
"We are making progress but the question is 'are we making enough progress?' Our guys are getting a better understanding of what we want them to do."
