Quotes by Edwin Mulitalo

“Our defense has given us a chance to win a lot of games over the years, and they gave us every chance to win tonight. For some reason, our offense still doesnt want to be a force to be reckoned with. We have a lot invested in our offense, and hopefully it will become what we want it to be.”

“Kyle got hurt, so we take that personally. Hopefully, we can correct those things that we did and put it behind us. A lot of things that we did, we did to ourselves.”

“If it was a rookie or some guy who had never started sitting behind Boller, I think there would be some concerns. But knowing what Wright can do -- hes been in this spot before -- that doesnt concern me too much. When he stepped in on Sunday, he kind of picked up where he left off.”

“We feel what theyve gone through having gone through it in 2002, ... Knowing that, were not going to let up. It should feel for us that we can go out there and do some things against a young team.”

“We’ve got to get better,”

“When you look at it, we definitely didnt help ourselves. From that aspect, those things can be turned around. Thats what we hope to do these next games; try not to put ourselves in a hole.”

“Thats the thing. Weve been talking a lot about what we were going to do. Weve been talking about hey, were going to stay focused and stay even-keeled, and to prove it today, thats what we wanted to do, just back up our talk. [Show] that we can play a focused game without losing the passion and intensity, and thats what happened.”

“We scored that last field goal, and me and [tackle] Jonathan Ogden were kind of saying to ourselves, we need a touchdown. Sure enough, we got up, our only lead of the game, and that wasnt enough. Of course, that falls on us. We did some good things. Whatever we can grab from this loss, well take it and try to get better.”

“All I said was, as long as we get a shot, as long as we get the opportunity to come out and display the things we can do to win games, thats all we can ask for,”

“We got up ahead and that wasnt enough. So, of course, that falls on us.”
