Head Coach Tom Allen

"Got a great opportunity this week. Obviously, a chance for win number eight, more importantly the Bucket. That is a huge priority here in our program. Our guys understand that. All of our new guys are growing to understand that as they're here now with us. Want to do a great job of preparing. Very, very good football team that we're going to get their very best shot. Coach Brohm has done a great job there. They've had some injuries throughout the year, like most of us have. Bottom line is that they're going to play extremely hard, play extremely well, have a good plan. We'll have to play our very, very best on the road to get this very important win for our program."

"It hurt last year for sure, just because of everything that was at stake. There was probably a little bit extra added to that game. But just having the opportunity to go back out and play in another Bucket game is exciting. A rivalry game, always fun. It will be a fun week of prep. Thanksgiving week, just more time to spend with the guys and we're looking forward to it for sure."

"This rivalry, coming from Florida, I didn't know much about it. But after I witnessed and was there after they ran across the field and took the Bucket from us physically, there's nothing else to say."

WR Nick Westbrook

"Obviously frustrated (with performance against Michigan) knowing we could have come out and performed a lot better. But it's in the past and we have a great opportunity, a game that everyone can definitely rally around and get behind. A lot of motivation to get this win this upcoming week. Flush it, learn from the mistakes. We've done that in the past and look forward to doing it again."

"Really flush it and move on to the next week. You know this is a big-time game, lot of passion going into this game, so we're just trying to get the job done."

"It's really special. Just the fact that you have such an important trophy within it too is something you really look forward to and I think a lot of guys on the team right now who are playing, weren't necessarily key contributors the last time we won this game. It's a game we're going to be really hungry for and we're looking forward to it."

To me, that was just another case of this team lacking discipline and smarts. The interception was great, but you have to have the discipline and intelligence to realize that you're 8 yards deep in the end zone. Take a knee and take the ball on the 20. That's just not smart football!
