best feelings knowing people saying says scoreboard screaming
It's probably one of the best feelings in the world. Especially when there's 16,000 or 17,000 people there screaming the whole game, saying 'You suck,' and knowing that scoreboard says you win.

We knew he was going to step it up. He came up to me and Curtis and told us he was going to take some of the bricks off our shoulders. He made it a lot easier for me.

We've been knocking them over with those pads. Inside there is someone that is tough. We just have to bring that out of them. (Taggart) has been tough, he just doesn't play as tough.
anybody coach effort great guard instead playing practice start telling
We've been telling coach we want to start playing more man-to-man. He told us that if we give great effort in practice that he'd try it. Now we can guard anybody instead of going 2-3 (zone) all game.

We went toe-to-toe with Oklahoma, and we figure they're probably top three in the conference,. Now we're figuring on our schedule, we should be able to beat anyone. Guys don't have their heads down; we realize we should have won that game.

We'll just have to wait and see what happens the rest of the way.

Points - we always knew he could put them up, but now he's being more defensive-minded and that's what we really need on this team.

We really focused on the big three. We kinda slowed them down a bit, but we couldn't slow the perimeter down.
