During the press conference, reporters asked Ferentz about quarterback Joe Labas. “I’m not sure weve ever gone into a game where our one and twos are gone, not in the roster,” Ferentz said. “Fortunately we had an extended period here. I think the last two weeks Joe has really done a lot of good things. Seems like hes more comfortable. All that being said, its going to be his first play in college football…. Hes a competitor, hes tough. Im sure hes going to do a great job for us.”
