Torpedoes Head Coach, Alvin Peterson had these comments after the game, "We bounced back and got a solid road victory this week. We have a Playoff caliber team in place and need to find a way to get back to the AC Playoffs. We will review the game film and find ways to improve. We have a big game next week at home against the New Orleans Raging Horde. I spoke to Jerome (Strickland) and he's amped up for this game. We need to establish our run game, play sound fundamental defense, and get after them quickly if we want to have a shot at winning this game!"
