Every game is do or die, basically, right now. With our inability to win on the road, it's tough to be a top team when the top teams in our league have big road wins. |
For an individual goal, it's a good goal to have. But coming in as a freshman, it wasn't my goal to get here. |
He is just a really smart player. Like I say all the time, he plays in his role. He never tries to do what he is not capable of doing. He doesn't try to force anything. He's strong with the ball and very smart and a threat to always pass. He's a good player. |
It didn't feel like a letdown. It just seemed like we didn't know what we were doing. One turnover led to another and another. I think the main thing is to have that killer instinct or heart on the defensive end. |
Our defense lost us this game. We had to keep the game in the 60s. When you let Heath go off for 32, it is hard to beat them. |
Our goal really was to win them all. We felt that was realistic. |
Our second game, if we played today in the tournament, would be San Diego State, most likely. UNLV, then San Diego State. We still feel we are a good enough team to beat that team. |
That is just not going to get it done against a good Air Force team. |
That was the start of our run last year, when we went on the road and got those two big wins. It's definitely a place where we played well in the past. We've been close on these road games. They've been there for the taking. |
The only thing hard has been to eat. It's been a lot of eggs, milkshakes and mashed potatoes. Nothing that's tough to chew on. |
They are really athletic and have some new guys that make them more athletic. They have more athleticism than us and are quicker than us. |
We haven't been putting up big numbers offensively and have to rely on defense to win games. We can get it done with our defense, and that is why we are winning games right now. |
When you don't finish plays and you're not strong with it, it costs you the game. |
