We have become a team. Everyone is ready to work and make sacrifices. We were able to bounce back from when we were 1-2 (at the start of the season, then again in conference play). Look at us now.

calmed coach college cost easily experience halftime hungry learning mental playing replace second talked took
Coach talked to us at halftime about when you think about it, one play in a big game, one mental mistake, can cost us.
