“I’m proud of this team. They fought. They played a good game. A lot of good things happened for us tonight that are confidence-building … What we have to continue to do is remember that if we play hard and don’t beat ourselves, there are opportunities out there for us.” -Derek Mason after 47-7 win against Austin Peay.
On QB Johnny McCrary: “I’m proud of him. He did a great job of making good decisions. He got rid of the ball fast, he extended plays, he ran when he needed to run, but more than that, he just managed the game the way it needed to be managed, and that’s what I needed to see from my starting quarterback.”
On passing to Trent Sherfield getting 16 catches: “Hot guys get the ball. If you want to be a playmaker, get hot and continue to make plays.”
Mason: Johnny’s my QB & he made me right
