They battled injuries, momentum swings and everything in between.Head coach Dan Lanning met with reporters following the game to give his thoughts and analysis of Oregon's play.Below is a complete transcript of his pre s conference.Opening statement: That was a lot of fun and man we made some mistakes but we competed till the very end. Offense, defense, special teams, really a complete team win. Certainly some moments we want to have back I thought this game all the way going into it was going to come down to takeaways. I didn't realize it was gonna go both ways really on that. There was I think three on both sides. Gotta care of the ball and games like that. But that being said, we just felt like every time we took the field offensively all we needed was one more play. One more opportunity. Defense I think they had their back against the wall a couple times and they came up big made some great plays. I can't say enough about our quarterback to play in this game after being banged up. Really having limited practice reps and obviously that was that was certainly newsworthy to everybody else. But for him to go out Denver Nuggets Jeresy there and have a gutsy performance was really important and special for this team. Excited for our win. There's a lot of love in that locker room, and that's a good team we just played. I got more respect probably for Coach Whittingham than anybody else in this Paul Millsap Jersey conference. He's won a lot of ballgames, and that's a good team. And for our team to win a tough game like that was a lot of fun."On Bo Nix, his late game conversion on third-and-one, digging deep while playing hurtLanning: "Certainly was a different game. I don't think it's any secret. We asked Bo right before that play. Hey, you can we run it? Can we run this play? Knowing that the two options were either to hand it off on the flat that we'd handed off before, or for him to keep it and he said absolutely. The guy's got heart. Cares about the game and cares about his team and I think it shows in the way he plays."On what Bo Nix was doing during the week to be able to play and when the decision was madeLanning: "He was an aggre sive rehab specialist. That's what we like to term it. He was attacking rehab religiously. I know he would sit here and credit our training staff and we got a great medical staff here sports science group that always was keeping the main thing the main thing. The first piece and priority was always his health. To be honest, early in the week I didn't know that he would be able to go. But he was aggre sive. He continued to work at it. He continued to push. Our medical group did a phenomenal job of a se sing where he was at. Later in the week we came more and more aware that we felt like hey, this might be a po sibility, let's just see where it goes. And they did a great job Michael Porter Jr. Jersey . This was one of those times where Pac-12 after dark was a good thing. It gave us a little bit more time for rehab. All the way up until the game. I remember talking to Bo yesterday and saying hey we still got 36 more hours a rehab. Which is pretty impre sive when you talk about him."On Bennett Williams vs. Utah, his characterLanning: "Bennett Williams is a tough kid man. He's a tough kid that has high expectations for himself. And when his best was needed, he showed up. Today he did a great job. Always competes and was glad that he could make some big plays for this team."On how satisfying it is for him and how big of a deal it is for the players to get this winLanning: "We talked about playing this game with an uncommon purpose. We wanted to play this game for stuff bigger than just us. This game was about the seniors taking the field for the last time here in Autzen. This game was about Spencer Webb. This game was about being an ultimate team win and really not worrying about the opinions of others. I think sometimes our best shows up when everyone else doubts us which, we certainly take note."On Dont'e Thornton's performanceLanning: "Great adjustment on that last big ball there at the end. He's a guy that's got the dominant traits. He can run He's big. He's got size. He's a phenomenal kid and to see him have some big moments, especially after he had the fumble there early on. To see him recover and make big impact for our team was huge."On the energy he saw from the defense tonightLanning: "I think all we saw tonight was the standard that they want to uphold and that they want to play to. It's that small. I know it doesn't always look that small. We're this close at times at being really special and playing at an elite level and I think that showed up Gary Harris Jersey more tonight. What we have to do is do that consistently, but those guys just came to work. They have high expectations for themselves and it was good to see them go out there and perform."On the play of the defensive line vs. UtahLanning: "We talked about this is a team that runs the wide zone, outside zone, stretch plays and we said the way you win that is with knock back. We want to see knock back at the line of scrimmage. Reestablish the line of scrimmage. I thought that showed up on a lot of the negative plays that we were able to create. That showed up from our defensive line. Several of those balls that were incomplete or interceptions, that was because of tip balls or guys in throwing windows. And it's something we didn't do very well last week. And those guys knew was something we had to improve on and it showed up, made a big impact on this game."On if he tries to avoid Pac-12 title, Rose Bowl chatterLanning: "There's an awarene s obviously of what exists in front of us but I think we've played our best when we focused on what's next. That was an elite game. All of our focus and attention was on that game. Now it's gonna be on the next one and you worry about the things you can control. What we can control is how we go perform now against a really good Oregon State Dikembe Mutombo Jersey team. We're gonna enjoy this win tonight and then tomorrow we're gonna be hard at work for that."On how he puts a value on the response from his team responding to adversityLanning: "I don't know that you do. Yeah, I don't know. The reality is you played a really good team there and that's a game that could go either way. It got tighter than it needed to go. But for our guys to fight and be as resilient as they are there at the end, to have that result--I'm really proud that they were able to come out on the right end of that, because regardle s of the result that was a tough fought game for our guys and I'm glad they get to be on the right side of it."Scroll to ContinueOn why Bennett Williams had the resiliency to come back and make the game-saving interceptionLanning: "He's tough, man.
