Quoting John Smith
Regarding his team's performance vs. Iowa:
"It was just real conservative on our part. You're not going to upset the number one team being conservative. I thought we were conservative at 133 and 141; they came down to one takedown. You're not going to win being conservative."
"At 174 I thought Newly McSpadden was competitive. He got Borschel under the leg three or four times and didn't finish and that's the difference in winning the match and not winning."
"Cody Hill fought through it and did some things to gain a little bit of respect for himself and that definitely ought to motivate him. He's one of the better wrestlers at 184."
Regarding Jamal Parks' performance:
"He can take something from it and know that he left a little bit on the mat."
"We lost three one-point matches and those are the things that make the difference in the dual."
