I'm convinced this team is comprised of a bunch of fighters. I like their attitude, I like the way they work, I like the way they continue to battle, I liked the way they continued to battle in the Pitt game," Kragthorpe said during his weekly press conference Monday. He also announced that Hunter Cantwell will remain the Cards' starting quarterback.Cantwell was replaced briefly by redshirt freshman Matt Simms during the Pittsburgh game.
