You can't spot those teams 10 points like that and expect to be able to win. I don't know what it is about us. For some reason, since conference started, we start off slow, and it's one of the things we need to work on. We got to make sure we come out confident in our shooting.

I just try to do whatever I need to do, whatever coach asks me to do to help the team out. We definitely needed to hit a few shots to get going, and I was the one who happened to do that.

They just came out and played harder the whole game. They put up the better effort and we made some mental mistakes that really cost us the game. I give them all the credit because they're a really good team this year.

No matter how their year is going, they always get motivated to play here. I think they love the challenge of going against the big crowds here and always play us really tough.

Everyone on that team can score and their post players are much bigger than we are.

Even when we don't have the best athletes, we win because we work hard and do what coach says. I think we keep getting better every year, and I don't think it's going to just stop. We keep pushing ourselves, and he keeps pushing us to get better.

They had a couple of thousand fans for one of their preseason scrimmages. A lot of (schools) don't get that for the real games.

They had another great game and really pushed us out of our comfort zone. It was a physical game where we really have to step up if you expect to win.

We love having a huge crowd behind us. It gives us more confidence.

We need to focus on coming out hard and getting a lead and keeping it the whole game.
