Opening statement:

"There are things we talked throughout the week on, having this opportunity to, in this environment, to play the best team in the country. We needed the turnover margin to be in our favor. We needed to eliminate explosive plays when our defense was out on the field, and obviously we didn't start that way. You look at the opportunities throughout the game to continue to stay in the moment and battle, and I thought our football team did that.
