5 Quotes by Jonathan Bailes

For two rounds, they've beat us. But we have 10 more games left, so what's the sense in packing it in right now? We want to keep fighting.

We played to our potential today. I think it's definitely something we can build on. On the score sheet, it says an 'L,' but as a progression of growth as a defense, I think it's a 'W' for us.

The defense we're running is similar, but there's different terminology. We just have to get the terminology down and start playing it with instinct rather than reaction, getting it down and soaking it in so that when we're out there we're not thinking but just playing off our athletic ability.

You don't have any choice but to keep fighting. We certainly didn't plan to start out this way. But there's no quit in this team. Like Coach Craft says, this season is a 12-round fight. We've lost the first two rounds, but we've still got 10 games to go. What's the sense in packing it in now? The Mountain West championship is still within our grasp. Who's to say we can't finish 10-2?

You can't take away experience. Experience tells it all. We just have to bear with the young guys. They're talented, but experience is experience, and I feel like they're now getting to know what college football is all about.
