Grant Wistrom Win Quotations

We had yet to come out and play well in the second half, offensively or defensively. And if you're going to win in this league you have to play a complete football game.

When we have a 21-point lead at halftime, those are football games we have to win on defense. Our offense can go out there and go three-and-out every series, but defensively we should still go out there and be able to win those football games.

These are the games that help build confidence. But also you look back at them later on down the line and they're the reason why you have home-field advantage or a first-round bye in the playoffs, because you win those close games.

A game like this last year, who knows if we win it or lose it? We couldn't have gone 0-2, and to go out and have the defense finish a game for us, it's a step in the right direction.

Anytime I took the field when I played at Nebraska, I felt like I was going to win the football game.
