VMI Head Coach Cal McCombs
On the game
"We could not stop them tonight. They played a more physical and stronger game then us. We didn't have anyone to make plays."
On Richmond and quarterback Stacy Tutt
"Tutt's a good player, but you need to give credit to the whole team. Richmond is playing with a lot of confidence right now. They have a good football team."
Richmond Head Coach Dave Clawson
On the game
"We played well from the opening gun and beat a team we probably should beat. We stressed this week about playing at a certain high level and we did a very good job throughout the game."
On Richmond's injuries
"We were fortunate all of our guys were ready to step up and fill in today. As you know we are a little banged up but these guys worked hard all week during practice and I'm glad we were able to reward them by playing in the homecoming game."
Richmond wide receiver Danny Desriveaux
On the game
"We executed our game plan very well tonight. Every guy stepped up and made a play and we never missed a beat."
On his third-quarter touchdown
"It was an unbelievable play by Stacy, but that's been the story of the year. Everyone pulls their own weight."
Richmond tight end Ben Teufel
On the game
"It was a good day to be a tight end. We have to give credit to our offensive line, they have been playing great and had lots of good protection today."
On the team's chemistry
"The last few games are a product of the atmosphere we've created this year. We had a tough start but we've been able to come back from adversity and keep winning football games."
Richmond linebacker Lance Gray
On the defense
"We stepped it up after the first few drives and really shut down their offense. We were able to get a lot of people in the game and everyone played at a very high level."
On "The Sideline Bell"
"We're hoping the new bell is going to catch on and be a new tradition here at Richmond. It has gotten us motivated and the more people we have in the stands, only helps us out on defense. We have to go to Towson next week and play the best game of the year."
