ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Louisiana Tech Head Coach Derek Dooley

"We had a great start. We went out there, threw it around the field as well as we've ever thrown it, went ahead 14-0 but I don't think anyone got complacent. We were playing a good football team and they punched back. It was a four point game at halftime but at the end of the day we were in a three-and-out funk on offense. You are not going to beat anybody going three-and-out four or five times in a row. You are certainly aren't going to beat a good team like Navy doing that, as they eat up the clock with their run game and they don't give you many opportunities."

"I felt our team dynamic was a lot better today. There were a lot more guys supporting each other and playing hard. We need to build on that, find out what the problems were and correct them for next week."

On Phillip Livas as a special teams playmaker...
Well, he does what he's been doing for three years now and it does not surprise us when he takes one to the house. We just hope he gets a chance and they gave us a chance so we took advantage of it.
