per the Missourian:
Although Thursday's Citrus Bowl will be Cobb's and Botticelli's last game, both seemed confident that they helped build a strong foundation in Minneapolis.
"As far as what that game means and getting the job done and winning this football game for our program — you know, Coach Kill says all the time, 'brick by brick.' This is — winning this football game is the next brick," Botticelli said. "This is the next step in moving our program forward."
For Cobb, who set Minnesota's single-season rushing yard record this year, going out with a bowl win would be the next logical brick in Kill's tenure. Minnesota has lost both its postseason appearances — the 2012 and 2013 Texas Bowls — since Kill arrived.
"So right now, for me and Botticelli coming off two consecutive bowl losses, the biggest thing for us is to come out of this game with a win," Cobb said.
