Overall, we didn't play as consistently as we could have. We put together some great combinations and really moved the ball around well, [but] we didn't sustain enough of that. I think the bottom line is, we had two or three chances that didn't go our way. It was a very exciting game; anybody could have won that one. So, it's a really tough loss because it could have been a tie. - Dean Duerst Quotes

We are looking forward to being at home again. We have not played a home night game, so I hope there is a great electric atmosphere. I'm hoping we will get a lot of students out, which would be great. - Dean Duerst Quotes

It was a really frustrating match. It was just a matter of not finishing tonight. We had a lot of chances that we couldn't convert on and that kept Iowa in the game. We had about eight one-on-ones with their keeper. In soccer, you sometimes see that. We missed the shots and I had an eerie feeling the bounces were not going to go our way. - Dean Duerst Quotes

It's hard to not feel happy about a win, but that was not our best game. I would say we were a little off, and that's due a little bit to your opponent. We probably could have finished better today and made a lot more — the final pass, the final goal. Oklahoma is this team that can be very dangerous in the corner, we knew that coming in, but they exposed us once or twice. But, it never broke down the team. Overall, team defense was pretty good today. - Dean Duerst Quotes

Illinois is a scary team this year, because they are a little inconsistent right now, kind of up and down, and they get a little rattled. They possess some good strikers. They have good speed and they have some very good one-on-one players. - Dean Duerst Quotes
