Head Coach: Ken Niumatalolo

Opening Statement
"We are going to give Western Kentucky credit. Coach (Nick) Holt had them ready on defense. I thought our defense played well too. They had enough stops but it's going to be hard to beat anybody scoring seven points. But we have to find a way to move on."
On the quarterbacks
"John hasn't been practicing very much, so Keeane (Reynolds) has been getting most of the reps, so it took away a lot of our continuity. We had a lot of opportunites in the first half that we let go. Western had a good plan and we couldn't do anything."
On the use of the run game "I'm not sure if it is more and more because we already are running it more than we are passing it. I do believe that is one of our strengths, running the ball."
On playing after bye week
"They out-coached us and out-played us, and you have to give those guys credit. Coach Petrino and his staff, they beat us, they played better than us and coached better than us. Coach Petrino did a better job of getting his team ready. We lost and I am not going to make excuses. They coached better and played better than us."
