On if he was surprised he and Rodney Smith only got 21 carries...
"Not really, honestly. That's one of things that you're not in control of and you trust the coaches to do their job. I believe in the staff. We have a great, great staff here. I believe in our offense and that they make the right call, so whatever they call, I'll go with it."
On what Iowa did to limit the rushing attack...
"We knew going in, it was going to be a tough game, just like the other games this season. You know you have to play all four quarters and come out and dow hat we did in practice. They are a physical team. This is Big Ten play. We just have to keep working and practicing as an offense and keep moving forward."
On any positives from the game...
"Definitely, we will have close games later on in the season. You can't expect to go out and just blow out another opponent. It's a tough loss, playing in a rivalry game, but you just have to move forward. This is going to teach us a lot as an offense."
On what the locker room was like after the game...
"Just quiet because it's a tough loss. It's a huge game that we've prepared years and years for. It's a big rivalry so it was kind of a hurt feeling in the locker room."
