Larry Coker Defense Quotations

We felt like our defense would make a stand. And we also felt like we could run the ball on Clemson.

We need as much of this as we can get, just to learn how to play the game, ... It's obvious that we have a lot of players that don't know how to play the game right now. This was a combination of some really good defense and some really bad offense.

I think we answered a lot of questions about our quarterback. Their defense put a lot of pressure on him, but he never rattled.

When we're really good, we've created a lot of turnovers and scored with those turnovers. There's more ways to score on defense than offense.

The defense did dominate, and I think we have an opportunity to be an outstanding defensive team. We ran the ball a little better today than we have in the spring, but we didn't pass and catch the ball very well. That was the big thing today. Our defense had a great day today.

The defense really stepped it up, and the offense didn't,

The defense kept giving us opportunities to win the game. We just couldn't get it done.

The operation was tragic. That was an extremely disappointing loss. Our defense kept giving us opportunities to win the game and we just didn't get it done. That's why it was so disappointing.

It was a good day for us. Obviously the defense is ahead of the offense at this time, which we expected that. There is some good teaching out here and we have a lot to work on to be a good football team.
