UNC-Connecticut: Postgame Quotes + Audio

Posted Sep 12, 2009
"We are very fortunate to win this game. There is no way you can talk about this game without saying how fortunate we were. To make some of that fortune happen a lot of things had to happen our kids to keep competing and playing hard. They spilled their guts out there every single snap. Clearly, our defense played very, very well today. They took the field after turnovers and handled sudden change situations and played on short fields." (Inside Carolina)
