What they’re saying

“It's been frustrating. Just annoying and frustrating, I would say. But it's been a process and I feel confident going into (Sunday), so I'm excited.”

— Troy Terry

“They have some high-end forwards, and they're just a good team. (Can't give) them rush chances. I think we've had success in their end. Establish the forecheck and just trying to do whatever we can to establish a ground game going down there.”

— Troy Terry

“End of a long road trip, tie game going to third, one of those things where just a little mistake is the reason we end up losing the game. We just can't get shut out. We've got to do a better job producing offense.”

— Alex Killorn
