I don't want to think about ending my season. And a lot of that is because I've enjoyed this team so much. They're fun to go to practice with, they're fun to travel with, they're fun to compete with.

In February, you're hoping you're to that point and not re-learning lessons.

They can make you look bad. But I thought the key was that we didn't cave in.

It's hard to argue with the way we played.

A couple more threes, and that's what we're about, maybe it's a different game. Nothing was easy. They contested shots. We just weren't able to get clean looks.

There's a lot left to do. We're just looking at it as an opportunity. They manhandled us up there.

You never know what a week off will do, but I thought we needed the extra time off. We came out with great focus and we were very in tune defensively. Our legs were fresher and that showed in our shooting.

You're talking about guys who are a little bigger and a little stronger.

Brandon continued to give us a lift. It's nice to have him inside where if you're struggling shooting the ball, you have a good option to go into.

Trying to build a case for an at-large bid at our level is pretty tough. It's gotten a little better, but we're still going to have to go on the road for the most part to play power conference schools.
