Drinkwitz says it's always good to keep the Mayor's Cup where it belongs. Says he's really, really proud of the team effort.

"Obviously up three scores in the fourth quarter you cannot have two turnovers, disappointed with that."

Says "we're still an incomplete team," so to find a way to win a game like this is really big.

Says LBs are playing downhill and fitting gaps really well in the run game

On the decision to put Cook in at the end, says he felt like he was going to need the QB run on that drive

Says he couldn't prepare three QBs for this game so the plan was always to turn to Cook if Bazelak had to come out

Compliments Bazelak for his toughness on the 60 yard TD pass to Mookie Cooper

Says the team practices the "mayday field goal" every Friday, but still to get that off was pretty good. Compliments Erik Link

Says bowl eligibility is "the whole goal right now"

Says he was celebrating in the locker room, so he doesn't know where Bazelak's health is coming out of the game. Says he likes the whole questionable deal, so will probably keep dragging that out

Mizzou stole the TD pass to Daniel Parker from the Packers. It's called Popsicle

Asked if the Bazelak interceptions are a result of physical limitations, Drinkwitz says no. Just really bad decisions

Says he will evaluate the film and see which QB gives the team the best chance to win moving forward

On Badie, says "if there's a better back in this conference, I want to see him." Also gives credit to the OL and tight ends, especially when the OL was down two tackles

Says this is the most healthy Mookie Cooper has been all season, and it showed

Says Hyrin White has a sprained ankle, not sure when he'll be back. Zeke Powell got hurt during practice and wasn't available either
