    FOOTBALL

    They said it

    “In the end, we had plenty of opportunities to put that football game away, and we didn't do it. And they made the play at the end. I take my hat off to them. End of story. You all watched the game.”

    — NU coach Bo Pelini on not finishing

    “Played well. Did some good things. Didn't finish it. We all take responsibility for not finishing the deal.”

    — Pelini on the NU defense

    “That is a tough way for those guys to lose, but I really believe they are back on course and are going to be a factor in the Big 12.”

    — VT coach Frank Beamer on NU

    “Nebraska chased us good. They went sideline to sideline. You wanted to get cracks in there, but they were running to the football. They are good up front and play extremely hard. You have to give them credit.”

    — Beamer on NU's defense

    “They were playing a cover-2 (zone defense), and I just found a hole.”

    — VT receiver Danny Coale on how he got behind the defense on his 81-yard reception

    “His guy thought I was working the other side of the field. But I kept the play alive and ended up coming back to his side. Danny kept running, and I found him.”

    — VT QB Tyrod Taylor on how he found Coale

    “I wasn't worried about the corner being on my back. I just knew I was going to catch the pass no matter how hard he threw. I snagged it and held on to it as hard as I could.”

    — VT receiver Dyrell Roberts on his game winning 11-yard TD reception
