"We really challenged our guys to go back to work. There was a lot of patting on the back about how great we did in the second half [at Missouri]. They responded with great practices and came out and played well. The effort was outstanding, and when they had an opportunity to make plays they made them." Offensive coordinator Mike Bobo on Georgia's school-record 713-yard output vs. Florida Atlantic
"I wish we had taken care of the ball. I don't like the turnovers; I don't like a pick-six; I don't like throwing interceptions in the red zone. Those were negatives, and we've got to continue to build and learn that can cost us some games." Bobo on the disappointments for the offense
"I was pretty upset about that interception. I felt like I had one of my most complete games since I've been here, and that kind of stunk to finish the game like that." Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray, who completed 14 of 19 passes for a career-high 342 yards and accounted for four touchdowns (two passing, two rushing) but threw an interception in the end zone on his last play of the night with about three minutes left in the third quarter
"I was concerned, yeah. They were legitimately taking that ball and moving it right down the field." Georgia coach Mark Richt on FAU's offense in the first half, when the Owls had 263 yards and touchdown drives of 57 and 87 yards
"We came in at halftime and regrouped and were back playing the kind of defense we are used to in the second half." Nose guard John Jenkins after Georgia held FAU to 55 second-half yards
"First half, [FAU was] eight out of 12 on third-down conversions. That's pretty strong. We got them to third down but couldn't get off the field. Guys like Jarvis can get you off the field … so I think [not having him] affected us. If Jarvis had played, I think we'd have been more productive at pressuring the passer." Richt on the absence of linebacker Jarvis Jones, who didn't play because of a strained groin muscle
"We came out pretty sharp in the first half, and we really played well against a good SEC team. But the second half was a completely different ballgame." Florida Atlantic quarterback Graham Wilbert, whose team trailed 28-14 at halftime and was outscored 21-0 in the third quarter
"We were having some communication issues at the beginning of the game. Once we were able to come in to the locker room at halftime, we figured out what we needed to do differently." Georgia linebacker Amarlo Herrera
"I know we'll be motivated for that game. …We'll be ready. They're a really good team. We have a lot of respect for them, and we know we better be ready." Richt on Saturday's game vs. Vanderbilt
