Head Coach Jeff Brohm
Opening Statement
"Every victory is a good victory, so I'm proud of our team. One thing that I think stands out is that our guys play hard, even when things aren't super efficient and super smooth, we hang in there. We try to make adjustments, some of them work, some of them don't, but our guys responded. I don't think we had many plays in the first half, maybe 16 or so… our defense didn't start off great, they were able to move the ball up and down the field for two straight drives. And then I think we just picked up the pressure. You'd like to be a little more efficient in some base calls, but we were not, so the pressure package definitely helped us. That's been good, the ability to do that, we've used it quite a bit throughout the year, but I would like to be able to play some more normal defense, better and more efficient. So I think there are some things we can work through on offense. It was an up and down game, we made some big explosive plays and then we got stopped multiple times. Sometimes when teams are bringing the kitchen sink like, which they did at times, you're going to have negative plays, but when you get through that initial line, you've got to go score and we did. I just think that it's a good one to win, we've got a lot of things to learn, but our guys do play hard and they want to win, so I credit them for just sticking with it and coming out here and playing to the end."

(On having balance with playmakers who can rise to the occasion)
"They showed up and made plays. Isaac (Brown) – it was good to see him run fast. Keyjuan (Brown) got in and did a good job. We had some negative runs, but we hung in there and popped a few. That is what you have to do. Our passing game wasn't quite as strong but those are things we can work on. I think Chris (Bell) and Caullin (Lacy) those guys played hard and made plays. I think coming off the field, would I like to play better? Yes. But we scored 38 points and played much better on defense in the second half. We made some stops and got off the field on third down. We have a lot of things to learn and look at, but it is a W."

(On playing games after big wins, when you're preparing, does it enter your mind at all?)
"Yes, every day it does, actually. Anytime we have a big win, you're worried about maybe taking your foot off the gas. I don't think we did, I thought we practiced hard and well. I know some people don't fully understand, but in college football, on any given day, anybody can beat anybody. You've got to be efficient, you've got to be able to make adjustments, you've got to keep playing hard and I thought our guys played hard. Yes, it wasn't perfect, there were some ugly series out there on defense early. There was some ugly offense, but then there were some big plays and there were some good stops, so we found a way to score more than them. We definitely can learn things from the video, which is good, but I do think that these guys want to win and we'll just continue to work as hard as we can to win the next one."

QB Miller Moss
(On what Boston College's defense did to mess with Louisville's rhythm)
"I think they dialed up some pressures on some stuff that were pretty good. I think as we worked in the second half, we got to some different things that had a lot of good answers, and they got us on a couple. So, they did some good things schematically, but I think at the end of the day, when we're executing at a high clip offensively, it shouldn't necessarily matter what they're calling, we should be able to do what we do well and at a high level."
(On what's causing unclean games on offense)
"I wish I was like, 'Oh, this is what we need to do better.' I don't know, the frustrating part is that we come off a Miami game where we do play super clean for the most part. Obviously, we had that one fumble at the end, but we played really clean overall. I don't know if there was kind of a sentiment of like 'In 2023, we beat Notre Dame and turned around and lost to Pitt. In 2024, we beat Clemson and turned around and lost to Stanford.' But I think we need to be the aggressor. We talk about being the hunter and not the hunted. In terms of why, I can't point to one reason. I think we just have to be more disciplined, have got to continue to get better. That all being said, I'm glad we won."
LB Kalib Perry
(On the conversation with the defense to go out there and continue to make stops when maybe the offense isn't playing their best?)Â
"Coach English is hard on us. He always says it's the best game mentality, no matter what the offense is doing, he's like, 'we got to go play our best ball.' He always tries to drive us to just keep striving and that we play good and we can always reach new heights. So, no matter what happened. I mean, they came out, threw everything at us. So, make our adjustments and just keep growing and figure out ways that we can win the game."
(On what he saw with Grayson James at QB, and where they felt they made adjustments)Â
"Obviously a big thing was play action pass. They were beating us on that pretty hard, and also just making sure that we can all fly to the ball, just a heavy run. I mean, they're bringing everybody, bunch of guys on counter. I mean, two pullers, so we can all plug the run, just play responsibility and settle in."
