Lafayette head coach Frank Tavani
"It was a great football game out there. It was hard-fought and they came out on top. On our side, I couldn't be prouder of our group of young men. They were tremendous, fighting and battling until the end. You can't ask for more than that."
"As I told our football team, the winner today is unblemished in the league and the other one joins just two other teams with one loss. With everyone playing everyone, there are going to be a lot of interesting things happening over the next four weeks. We still believe we have a shot."
"We haven't been involved in a big game since 1994, so obviously it's a big game. But, with five games left in the season, you can't put too much emphasis on any one game. We try to look at it as they're all important and this was the first one. We know we can play with anyone in this conference"
Lafayette quarterback Marko Glavic
"The whole first half, we were moving the ball at will. When we had that snap over the head, I think that was our only turnover. It's just an example of how big turnovers are. We played our hearts out and left it all out on the field. We are going to move on. We have a big one next week at Colgate."
Lafayette tailback Joe McCourt
"We knew going in that our best defense was going to be our offense. The way it started out, it looked like one of those games where whoever had the ball last was going to win. All the stars came out to play today."
Lafayette linebacker Wes Erbe
"A couple of plays he (Fordham tailback Kirwin Watson) just would find the hole and go. We tried the whole game to pound the offensive line and pound him. He's a good back. He doesn't slip or anything. He gets a crack and he's just gone."
