exactly game perfect
It was a perfect game for us. This is exactly what we needed.
couple games gotten kept led lost question seniors starts time top work year
The seniors have led the way, there's no question about that. There was a time during the year when we lost a couple games that they could have gotten down, but they never did that. They just went to work and really kept it going. It all starts at the top with the leadership.
ball game played san tougher
San Jose is a better ball club. They played much more competitive in the league. We'll have a tougher game (tomorrow) than we did tonight.
game help lost ready though
Even though we lost the game (to Penn), I think it will help us get ready for the league.
forward games home left looking needs regular road seven team wants win
We have only seven games left in the regular season, and we can't keep looking forward only to the home games. This team needs to win on the road if it wants to get recognized.
chance game last pace win
You just want to have a chance to win the game at the end. So we want the game to be at the same pace as the last time.
energy game kids
I don't know what you could do different. You got the same game plan, you got the same kids. It's an energy thing they have to do.
bench change energy games help struggled
If we do change it, Ahmet can give us a lot of energy off the bench. There have been some games where our bench has struggled to give us points, and I know Ahmet can help there.
bit game late playing road running second
Second game of a road trip, and then playing in a little bit of altitude, you don't want to get in a running game late in the game like we did and I think that got to us.
coming games lost move worry
We need to move on. We have some injuries, we lost some games we probably should have won, but you can't worry about that. Our most important games are coming up, and that's in the league.
across built confidence early game hard pace saw stop team
Because we couldn't stop them early on and set the pace of the game, they built confidence as the game went on. It's hard to get across to your team that they're 0-8 but better than that, and we saw that.
bit caught control freshmen game guys lost rest second thompson together
You had two freshmen (Hiram Thompson and Dominic Waters) in there together and we weren't able to rest some of the other guys and I think it caught up to us in the second half. I think we lost a little bit of control of the game right there at the end (of the first half).
beat cut game good lead louisiana mexico played state tech tough transition work
We had a good lead on New Mexico State down there and got into a transition game with them and they beat us. Louisiana Tech has always played us tough here. We've got our work cut out.
game pull rest underdogs year
We're the underdogs here, no question. So it's the kind of game that can really get you going for the rest of the year if you pull it off.
