Tulane Postgame Quotes
Head Coach Curtis Johnson
(Ref. Opening Statement)
"It was a hard-fought game. They are outstanding. Michie Stadium a magnificent place to play; probably the best place I've ever played. I've won a Superbowl and national championships, but this place is absolutely awesome. The Cadets were outstanding, and not just the team we played against. I'm talking about the guys in the stands. It was just magnificent. I love the atmosphere. They've got something here. I thought both teams played outstanding. For teams that hadn't won very many games, it was a pretty clean, hard-fought game. This was a classic."
(Ref. Two-minute drill on final drive)
"It was awesome, especially because our young quarterback hadn't done this before. I just love the way Tanner took command of the field, he check down to the backs, threw it to the receivers, read the defense perfectly and ran the ball when he needed to. It was one of those drives that will allow him to mature more and propel him into the future."
(Ref. Defense vs. third read-option offense this year)
"We did play well today, but my hat goes off to Coach Monken. He did some stuff differently and he was outstanding. Those kids played hard. I thought our defensive front played absolutely outstanding. Tanzel Smart probably played the best game of his career, Sean Wilson played well and Corey Redwine played outstanding also. That defensive front is something to be reckoned with."
