Asked about winning the WAC Player of the Week award, Colt talked about their 2 upcoming road games:
"It's cool and everything. We're not really patting ourselves on the back for Saturday's performance or thinking about how good we are yet. We beat a team we were supposed to beat, so these next couple of weeks will really determine how good we're gonna be and obviously we got a tough test this week (at Louisiana Tech). So, it's a great honor and everything, but it's too early in the season to appreciate stuff like that." (HSB)

"We played a team we were supposed to beat. We went out there and took care of business. That's how the game felt. I had a bunch of good stats, but it doesn't mean anything right now." (HA)

Remembering their last game at La Tech, Colt said:
"We remember our last trip there (to Ruston, La.). We got it handed to us (46-14 in 2005)." (HA)


Asked how their D can stop UH, La Tech coach Derek Dooley said:
"They need to petition to the commissioner to see if we can play with 12, it might help us a little bit. I'm not sure how you slow it down. I don't think anybody's really found the answer. Somehow, you gotta find a way to affect the rhythm of Colt (Brennan); it all starts there." (HSB)

About how they have to force UH to score FGs instead of TDs, Dooley said:
"You gotta play real good in the red zone. If you can try to keep 'em out of the end zone, and make 'em kick field goals, that will have a lot to do with slowing 'em down. Now ... how you do it, if you got any answers on that, let me know." (HSB)
