“We came out and played better than we did last week. We found out what type of team we are. We competed and we played well. Right now it's disappointing but we have to move forward. The only thing we can do is go correct our mistakes for next week.”
“We thought we were going to come out and have a good game. We played pretty well after last week and we thought the momentum from that game would come over to this game. Alabama came out and ran the ball and kept our offense off the field.”
“I thought it was going to be a good battle today, just like last year. We were looking good at first. Things just got out of hand and went the wrong way after that.”
“If we hadn't scored on that drive, it really would have been a step on the foot. But we still scored on that drive, so it felt like we persevered. I definitely thought it was going to be a good game after that. ... I thought it was going to be a battle, and it definitely wasn't.”
“Except we're not getting a ring this year. A lot of guys frowned upon that, but that's OK. We got a lot of good stuff. I can't wait to wear a lot of stuff. We got a watch. I can always tell time.”
