Urban Meyer Post Game Quotes
"I have never been happier for a group of guys than I am today. I don't think I have ever been apart of a football team where out of our 14 seniors, there is no dead weight. All of our seniors start on some phase. We saw how important special teams are with how the kickoff team won the game for us. You saw a Bowling Green team that is a disciplined team and I am extremely proud of that, and it's going to continue to be that way. We are going to play extremely hard and extremely disciplined, and I think that separated us from a lot of our opponents this year. I am extremely proud of their efforts."
On a possible Bowl bid
" I think that it is something that needs to be addressed. I don't want to come across as a coach that is looking for more, but Bowling Green just won 8 games, and I am extremely proud of that. I'd be lying to you if I told you that our seniors were disappointed or surprised that they would announce the bids so early. Here is a team that has done something that no other team in MAC history has done in beating three schools (Temple, Missouri and Northwestern) from BCS Conferences. What this team has done has got to be noticed. My job is to represent and protect this football team and I think we should have one more game."
On the tearing down of the goal posts
" You guys probably heard me saying to every student group that I spoke to, and I hope that those goal posts go down Main Street, because that is where they belong. I will find out on the way home if that is where they are. I am happy for the student body and our football players are part of the student body. Our football players will always be apart of our student body and that is something that will never change. I am so proud of them."
Tom Amstutz Post Game Quotes
"We gave them a short field a lot of the time. We shot ourselves in the foot."
"We won't even watch this film. We will just start getting ready for the MAC Championship Game."
On Tavares Bolden
"It was a medical decision that he couldn't play. He should be ready to play next week."
Chester Taylor Post Game Quote
"We made too many mistakes."
