QUOTES

Sumlin on the loss: 鈥淚t was gonna come down to really three things: Turnovers, penalties and special teams. You can't play a team of that caliber and turn it over that many times and have a punt blocked. All the things that happened in the first half and to still be ahead 鈥� based on all that, it was a miracle.鈥�

Sumlin on the constant pass-rush pressure on Tate: 鈥淭hey did a nice job with their front four. But they also did a nice job with the linebackers of running through in the run game, and they just kept coming when we dropped back to throw it. Some safety blitzes, which we hadn't seen a bunch of. Played some zero (coverage) a couple times and just dared us. We couldn鈥檛 get it off. Give them credit.鈥�

Sumlin on Tate prematurely fleeing the pocket: 鈥淲e talked about that, him stepping up in there and not avoiding the rush so much to the perimeter, because they were containing him. When he was bailing out, he鈥檚 bailing out right into pressure or the blocking surface. There were times he could have stepped up and ran. Instead of bailing out to the side, he's gotta push up in the pocket and makes things happen.鈥�

Sumlin on the blocked punt: 鈥淚t was just a different formation. They left the D-line in. Over the course of the last two years, they've been a return team. In two years, I think they came after one punt. 鈥� For whatever reason they decided to bring it tonight from a different formation and they got to it.鈥�

Sumlin on being 4-2 halfway through the season: 鈥淲e talk 1-0 mentality. It's been working for us. Tonight, obviously, it did not. But the messages is, hey, listen, win or lose, guess what? Next week's coming. What we can't do is let this bleed into next week.

鈥淲e're not even talking about the year. We're talking about (how) this team has responded to one week at a time, one day at a time. That's our approach. We're going to stick with that approach.

鈥淲e鈥檝e gotta be critical of ourselves as players, as coaches, and me. There were some things that we did tonight that were self-inflicted. As coaches, we鈥檝e gotta fix some things - as a team, as an organization.鈥�

Tate on how the team can bounce back: 鈥淚 think it鈥檚 fairly easy. This team has been through adversity before. I think it was a message for us, just to wake us up. Like a little reality check just to remind us that we have to play all four quarters every day. We can't take any games off or any quarters off. We鈥檝e just gotta be better as a whole. I think we鈥檒l do a lot better next week.鈥�

UA safety Scottie Young Jr. on the defense鈥檚 struggles in the second half: 鈥淛ust execution. Just finishing the game. They were more disciplined in the second half.鈥�

Washington coach Chris Petersen on the win: 鈥淩eally slow start on offense, but our defense was spectacular that first quarter and a half. We couldn鈥檛 get any rhythm going on offense. We had this unbelievable field position (average start in the first half: UW 42-yard line) but went three-and-out, field goal, whatever. The whole first half was very frustrating on offense, and everyone was frustrated at halftime coming in. I鈥檓 proud of how those guys responded.鈥�
