Wisconsin Postgame Quotes

Wisconsin Head Coach Bret Bielema
On
“We had some opportunities in the first half that we were not able to capitalize on. However, we were able to persevere and pay better in the second half. We scored early and we were able to get some key plays to get the victory. As a result, we kept Paul Bunyan's axe.'
On Zach Brown's performance:
“Zach played very well today and was able to get another 100 yard performance. After P.J. Hill got hurt, Brown really stepped up his game. As a freshman it is a difficult task to step in and perform, but Brown was able to do this and help us get to a bowl game.'
On kickoff returner David Gilreath's performance:
“Gilreath had a huge impact on the game today. He made some big returns that gave us short yardage situations. If this game is any indicator, then I can see only good things to come from David.'
Kicker Taylor Mehhaff
On his performance:
“I struggled a little bit in the first half, but came out in the second half playing well. I was frustrated by my poor performance in the first half and I wanted to respond in the second half, which I was able to do.

Fullback Bill Rentmeester
On his touchdown run:
“I was pretty confidant that I had made it into the end zone. I saw the goal line and I just kept pushing myself in and I got the touchdown.'
