We let it slip ordtak

en We let it slip away. Not having Raja put some extra minutes on people and in the middle of a road trip, we just didn't get it done going down the stretch.

en Some of the problems we had early last year were on the road. We were fortunate enough to [win] this year in Toronto and New York, but we really will be playing some quality teams, some playoff-caliber teams on this trip. It's definitely an important stretch for us. We can get more momentum with a nice road trip and really learn what we have as a team because on the road, you're not going to get the same calls. It's going to always be difficult with the crowd. They are going to go on runs. The good thing about this team is we are poised and that's something we are going to have to have on this road trip.

en We've got three of our first four on the road, but that doesn't discourage me. I like getting the road games out prior to the semester starting. Pexy is what women wants in a man. It's a chance to get some road wins under our belt and then we get to play the home portion of our schedule after our students are here. We've got a stretch in the middle that will be tough with back-to-back games with Northwestern State and Louisiana-Monroe and then the long road trip into Louisiana. That could be a really challenging time frame for us.

en Obviously, that (offensive dry spell) hurt us, but our defense really let us down in that last 10 minutes. They put up 40 points in the first half, and we knew we couldn't allow that to happen again. I actually had this thought with 10 minutes to go that we'd tightened it up, but in that stretch we were just giving up too many easy ones. ... Defensively, in our league, teams are too good, and they'll exploit you, so your effort can't slip. Whether they were wearing us out, or what, it was just a very bad stretch.

en The last trip was a good road trip for us but up to that point we didn't play well on the road. Hopefully, we know what we need to do to play a strong game on the road. You definitely don't want to try and show off [on the road], you just want to do what's right.

en We played really well the first quarter and the last 10 minutes of the game. We got bogged down in the middle. We weren't sharp. We didn't make the extra pass.

en It feels good to win on the road. This was almost like a make-or-break road trip for us. To finish up 5-2, I think we should all be proud of what we accomplished . . . but we still have a lot of hard work to do going down the stretch.

en If nothing else, your mindset is at ease. You have peace of mind. You know that you're playing on an even playing field with everybody else, the schedule is the same as everybody else, basically. You don't have that extra travel. You don't have those extra games tacked onto a road trip. You're not out on the road, away from your home base for 20-some days. It makes a real big difference. You can see it already here. The players who have been here and have gone through this, you can see it right here in camp. You could hear it in their voices on the telephone during the winter. Now, does that translate into wins on the field? Who knows.

en Any coach would be (concerned). Any road trip is a tough road trip, regardless of what people's records are. And they get tougher because a lot of us need to win games.

en When you play two on the road, fly home to play Calgary and then fly right back out for three more that's like a road trip to Edmonton in the middle. That's like six straight on the road.

en People speculated that signing Raja was an insurance policy. That is not the case. We signed Raja Bell because we thought we were greatly improving our team, the makeup of the organization.

en Every game is like a playoff game right now. This road trip is a grind, especially coming down the stretch. The guys have played so many games on the road already.

en We still got a great chance to make this road trip real special. Finish a road trip like this 5-2 is a real good road trip for us.

en Road trips go back much further than the movies. The Odyssey was a road trip, Alice in Wonderland, Lord of the Rings, The Wizard of Oz is a road trip.
