expected harder nevada stay win
He got my vote. You can say Nevada was expected to win the league, but sometimes it's harder to stay on top.
against matter nevada realized saw struggled team wins woke
Wins are always OK, no matter what they look like. I realized that when I woke up (yesterday) and saw that Nevada struggled the same way we did against a team from that same conference.
cut host nevada pull struggled team work
In the past, the host team has struggled to pull it out. I would say Nevada has its work cut out.
beating bit guess nevada performed watch
I'm embarrassed that you had to watch that and I'm embarrassed that we performed like that. You've got to give Nevada credit. I guess we stirred them up a little bit beating them at our place.
beat blown figured flat good hands nevada
I figured they would come out flat after getting blown out, but they come back and beat a very good Nevada team. Now we know we're going to have our hands full.
defense energy ready run
We have to be ready on defense again. They like to run in transition, and they'll play with a lot more energy at home.
again showing talk tougher
We always talk about how much tougher things are on the road. Well, it's showing again right here.
hopefully hotel near pulled pulling
We're pulling out all the stops. It was right near the hotel when we pulled up so hopefully that was a sign.
attitude win
You have to be good, but you have to be lucky, too. And you have to believe. You have to go in with the attitude that you can win it.
attitude far improving passive past team teams themselves works
This team works better than other teams we've had in the past as far as improving themselves on the court, and the attitude is always positive. But this team has its own personality, and unfortunately, it's a passive one.
proven winning
You have to look at them first. They're proven and they've been winning on the road.
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).
five ready tough year
This year is going to be really tough because we have to get ready for five new teams, basically.
last lead
When you only lead on the last shot, it's relief.
