Northwestern-Nebraska postgame press conference notes
Following Northwestern’s heartbreaking 13-10 defeat at the hands of the Cornhuskers, Fitz, Joe Gaziano, Paddy Fisher and Aidan Smith spoke to the media. Here’s what they had to say:
Pat Fitzgerald
Opening statement: “Disappointing loss, we had every opportunity to finish the game. That’s kinda where we are right now.”
On the Smith interception/no-call: “It looked from my vantage point like it wasn’t very good. It was a bang-bang play, bang-bang miss.”
On the big pass play that set up the game-winning field goal: “Wasn’t a coverage bust. It was a three deep. The cornerback there [Rod Campbell] missed it...we practice it every week.”
