    What they said: Nebraska vs. Baylor

    Memorable quotes from Nebraska's 20-10 win over Baylor:

    * * *

    “They turned their center to (Ndamukong) Suh and they were trying to double-team Suh, and (Jared Crick) took advantage of it. He is too good of a football player if they are going to do that.”

    — NU coach Bo Pelini on the record day by Jared Crick

    * * *

    “In the second half we just went out there and just shot blanks. ... We just have to go back to work.”

    — NU quarterback Cody Green

    * * *

    “One thing you have to do is go back on the next drive and just forget about it. You have to have a memory like a goldfish.”

    — Green on throwing an interception for a TD

    * * *

    “I have to credit Suh, Barry Turner and Pierre Allen for helping collapse the pocket with me.”

    — Crick on his school-record five sacks

    * * *

    “They were double-teaming Suh most of the game, so that gave me the opportunity to go one-on-one with the open lanes to kind of free rush.”

    — Crick on NU's defensive pressure

    * * *

    “It couldn't have started out any worse than it did. I don't think you have to be a football follower for years to understand that that isn't how you want to start a football game, especially against a team that has a pretty good defense and when you haven't been as productive offensively as you'd like to be.”

    — Baylor coach Art Briles

    * * *

    “All of a sudden people feeling bad are feeling good. The crowd's excited, our sideline is excited and all of a sudden they aren't swallowing as easy on the other sideline. It changes everything, and we gave ourselves opportunities. We just have to finish it out.”

    — Briles on momentum built after cornerback Clifton Odom's touchdown in the third quarter
