best bothered country defense defensive game good great lead likes national scoring team wins
The team that wins the national championship doesn't usually lead the country in defensive scoring average. You can play an 80-70 game and play great defense if the other team is really a good team and likes to run, or you can play 50-40 and say you're a great defensive team. That never bothered me. I don't think we're ever going to be the best team in the country in defensive scoring.

Good teams come back after a situation like that, and we happened to be the next game.

advantage becomes best gets good guys mistake passing respect share time
I really respect the way they play. They share the ball, and when your best two guys do it, it becomes contagious. If you're a good passing team, you have an advantage on a lot of teams. B.C. gets you every time you make a mistake on defense.

We might have worn them down a little bit at the end of the first half.
