Bret Bielema Press Conference Quotes

On Brandon Peters injury...
"BP (Brandon Peters) has an injury on his left shoulder, and all tests have pointed to negative results for a long-standing injury."

On lack of unforced errors...
"I try to show those (NFL Preseason errors) in order to show our players how to clean up their play, which I think really helped against Nebraska."

On Art Sitkowski's performance...
"Art's been impressive ever since I got in contact with him. From the first phone call, I got off the phone and I knew he was a mature young man. I wasn't surprised at all how he handled the moment. Obviously I didn't know how he was going to play, but I knew how he would attack the situation."

On Nebraska's lack of knowledge of their schemes...
"I think the element of surprise is always good. We're the information gathering type, not the information giving. To me the parts I really enjoy about coaching is watching film later in the season and seeing how a team runs their schemes."
