against effort oregon proud tonight win
We're more proud of our effort tonight than we were in the win against Oregon State.
beaten team
We were beaten by the better team today, a team that manhandled us on the glass.
ball rebound sore spot year
We didn't rebound the ball well, and we haven't done it well for a while. It's been a sore spot for us all year long.
focused played
We probably played the way our preseason prognostications were. We're not that bad. They were really focused on defense. They didn't let us do anything.
night poorly worked
We worked on everything we did poorly the other night (against UCLA).
boards both chance dominated second totally
They totally dominated the boards on both ends. The second chance opportunities were the difference.
facilities football gotten level million program reason sell shows spending sports
There's a reason why this program has not gotten to the level of other sports (at USC). And facilities have something to do with it. This allows us to sell our program in recruiting. You have to go in apologizing, not recruiting. Spending $143 million shows commitment, and that it's not only a football school. And hopefully, it will give us a home-court advantage.
came split tried trying weekend
A split is not what we came into this weekend for. We tried to come into this weekend trying to get two.
harder played team
I thought they played harder than any team that has come into this building.
deny inability key stretch
I thought that was a key stretch in the game, our inability to deny him the ball.
duplicate energy feeling great hopefully leave maybe next night performance poise respond result toughness win
I think what's important is how we respond to that performance the other night (against UCLA) Â- what kind of energy we come play with, what kind of toughness we come play with, what kind of poise we play with. Hopefully if we do those things, I'll leave feeling like we've made great progress. Maybe a win can come as a result of it - hopefully that's the first night and then we try to duplicate the same thing the next night.
performance respond
I think what's important is how we respond to that performance the other night.
certainly chance gives
It gives us two practices, and we'll certainly have a chance to try to make some revisions. I don't really know which way we'll go.
approach
We have to approach it like he won't be back.
