Temple Head Coach Al Golden postgame quotes
On the turnovers:
"I thought Josh [Bundy] was making a second effort, and it was a situation of ball security, which we work on everyday. The other one was ridiculous. I don't know what Travis [Shelton] was doing. He made bad decisions a couple times. He's trying to do things outside of what our system is, and I need to evaluate him as a return man. We had another turnover and a missed field goal. That's 24 points right there."
On fixing the turnovers:
"We work like crazy at it. Ball security; we work hard at it everyday. Our veteran players turned the ball over. Whatever we are doing we are going to keep working at it."
On the Bowling Green passing attack:
"You got to give them a lot of credit, but we spotted them 24 points. I thought the defense was playing really well in the first half. The offense moved the ball, and we had the ball for 20 minutes in the first half. Two of the touchdowns were not defensive related. It's going to be hard to judge our defense based on what happened here. Once we got down and things started to get away from us that's when we got hurt."
On going for it on fourth down before the end of the first half:
"I thought we could tie it up and then get the ball back in the second half, and I obviously imagined it going a little different than the way it did. I knew it was going to be a tight game. I was happy to get the ball back in the second half and I knew we would have to win it in the fourth quarter."
