    Twenty-nine turnovers didn't help us at all. Shooting 1-for-9 in 3-pointers in the first half didn't help us. But, man, they're a scrappy basketball team. They play in those spurts and that's what makes them good. They can afford not to play well in 2- or 3-minute spans. We can't. We're not good enough of a basketball team to do that.

    You never forget games like that. When you lose like that, you always remember it. We know they're going to be ready for us. Temple's a great basketball team, and they're coming off of two huge wins, so we know they're going to be prepared.

    They were killing us on the glass. They got to lose balls quicker than we did. We were standing around and watching. We have so far to go as a basketball team; I'm done with this game. I'm more concerned with where our team is headed.

    They played like a team that had their back against the wall and they came out ready to play. We did not. They played great and we played terrible.

    They had to play really, really well and they did because we played one of our better games lately. When you're going against a team that's better than you, playing a great game in their home gym, you're probably not going to come out on the winning side.
