“[We] came out with a little bit more urgency tonight, which was good, special day,” head coach Willie Bloomquist said. “With the ‘81 team being here, a lot of great alumns, the last team to win a national title here, them being present just kind of drives home the point that that’s where we want to get to at some point.”
