On WKU's offense:
"They may be the most prolific passing attack that we’ve faced this entire season and that includes UCF. The quarterback is outstanding. They are going to throw it a significant amount of times. They keep you off balance because they do mix in the running game. If it’s first-and-10 or second and one to five they are pretty much 50-50 in those downs but after those downs they are going to air it out and put a lot of pressure on your coverage, on your nickel and dime because they will change personnel groupings. They will be in 10 personnel with four receivers and they got some tight ends that can run almost as well as the receivers. It’s a totally different challenge than maybe some of the teams we have played earlier."
On WKU's size:
"They are very big. They may be one of the biggest offensive lines. They’ve done a good job recruiting. They got guys 6-5, 6-6, 6-7, 300-pound guys and it’s a pro-style attack. On the defensive side they are thicker and bigger at the linebacker which is going to be a big challenge as far as trying to establish the running game because they are a big physical front seven."
On WKU's defensive pressure:
"They bring a lot of pressure. They will fire corners, safeties off the edges. They blitz their linebackers. They do a good job of trying to attack the gaps. It puts a lot of stress and what that does is eliminate any potential doubleteam type of blocks. You are not going to get a lot of two-on-one and then get to the second level because they got guys that are filling those gaps. It makes you establish the one-on-one blocking schemes."
On WKU QB Mike White:
"This kid can make absolutely every throw. He is big. He is an NFL-type of body. He’s got a very, very good arm. The thing that impresses you when you watch a quarterback is that sometimes there are certain throws that they struggle with. I don’t see that with him. He can throw the ball down the field because they will push it as far down the field as you could ask. But he also has the touch to hit check downs, the flares, the flats and those kinds of things which I think is impressive in a quarterback."
