TENNESSEE-ARKANSAS FOOTBALL POSTGAME QUOTES
Arkansas Head Coach
Bobby Petrino (on the game): “We had a lot of big plays. I’m glad we
were able to come out in the second half and score like we did. We’ve
certainly played well in our last three games at home. I like it when
we crank up our run game and what else can you say about our special
teams, they’ve been great all season, scoring five touchdowns.”
Arkansas
Head Coach Bobby Petrino (on Jarius Wright): “Jarius (Wright) has been
a great receiver all year. He can run after the catch, which he has
improved on all year. We rely on him as one of our biggest playmakers.”
Arkansas
Head Coach Bobby Petrino (on the team’s preparation this week): “I
thought the team did good in preparation all week long. It was about
the seniors, winning their last game in Fayetteville. We were really
concerned about our effort and performance and the scoreboard would
take care of itself.”
Arkansas Head Coach Bobby
Petrino (on the defense): “I feel like we’re playing real well. Our
defense is playing well and playing fast.”
Arkansas
Safety Tramain Thomas (on the Mississippi State game): “It’s going to
be physical. They’re a physical team just like us. I expect it to be a
hard-hitting game just like it was last year.”
Arkansas
Safety Tramain Thomas (on his interception): “We were in bracket
coverage on Da’Rick Rogers and he ran an out route so that freed me up
and I was able to key on the quarterback. I figured out where he was
going to throw the ball and was able to make the interception.”
Arkansas
Wide Receiver Jarius Wright (on his spectacular catch): “I was running
up the sideline, Tyler (Wilson) threw the ball out there and there was
some wind tonight so I think it got caught in the air. I had to stop
and go back to it, I actually caught it the first time, so I flipped it
in the air, tried to catch it with one hand, it hit my facemask, then I
got two hands out to catch it.”
Arkansas Wide
Receiver Jarius Wright (on holding the Arkansas record for career
receptions): “It’s always good to break a record, especially in your
home state and a place that you’ve played at for so long. It’s great to
know I broke a record and regardless if Joe (Adams) passes me or not,
I’ll be in the record books.”
