1. "“Obviously, the blocked punt was a bad call by our special teams coach, who is me. I didn’t get us in the right protection there, and we gave up a touchdown back on our own end.”
Weber State’s Ja’Kobe Harris had a free run to punter Adam Wilson because the player who would be defending him was directed to run down the field in coverage."
2. "“Our defense tonight was special,” Hauck said. “They were spectacular. I believe we have the best defense in the conference, and they showed it tonight.”
"Defense ruled early as Montana and Weber State combined for nine consecutive punts to open the game. The Griz forced four three-and-outs to start and didn’t allow a first down until the Wildcats’ fifth drive."
“We were put in some tough situations and really proud of the way that we responded,” Montana linebacker Dante Olson said. “Obviously, we didn’t keep them out of the end zone enough. It shows on the scoreboard. So, disappointed on that. But proud of the guys and our effort.”
3. "“He didn’t play his sharpest for sure,” Hauck said of Sneed. “But part of that’s the defense doing a good job too.”
"He was under regular pressure and was sacked six times, including four times by defensive end Adam Rodriguez."
"Sneed was intercepted a school-record five times, two of which Hauck attributed to a slick ball. "
4. "“They played a lot more zone this game,” Sneed said. “They played a lot of Cover 2 and tried to bait throws, tried to take away our hitches on the outside and took away our RPO game. So, they did a good job. But there’s a lot of things that I missed out there and a lot of throws I missed.”
“Just didn’t execute. Didn’t make my reads,” Sneed said. “That game falls on my shoulders. I let a lot of people down, let the seniors down, let our team down. It falls on my shoulders. Turned the ball over five times. Hard to win the game.”
