left possibly
We left everything we possibly could on the floor.
fight fighting games home kids lives three trying
Our kids understand. They know where we're at. We've got three home games left, and two games on the road. We're just trying to fight to get better. They're fighting for their lives every game.
close miss seems state won
When State and Ole Miss play, it's always a battle. It always seems to be a close game. They won the first game. We have to find a way to play better here at home.
ability notch second turned
We jumped out on a 16-0 run, but I thought it was our ability to defend, too. We turned it up a notch defensively in the second half.
basketball huge
That was very important. It was huge for our basketball team, being so young, to go in with the lead.
decide start wait
We wait to get down 20, get embarrassed, before we decide to start playing.
call compliance office received tickets
When we received the call that he wanted tickets to a game, we went right to the MSU compliance office. It was all approved. That's why we did it.
best courts easy front good team
We're going to play a very good team that has one of the best front courts in this league. It won't be very easy for us.
beat cut work
We're beat up and awfully sick. We've got our work cut out for us.
difficult experience gains good leadership players providing
The pluses are that (Gordon) is a good player. He is going to be one of the better players in the league. If he gains more experience he will be really good, he has had some difficult times and has been providing good leadership as a freshman.
job resting
With this team, something is new every night. He got pretty fatigued. We got to do a better job of resting him.
ball beat chance difficult shoot shoots shot
When they shoot the ball they have a chance to beat anybody. When Kelley shoots it the way Kelley shot it tonight, they're very difficult to beat.
notch took turned
We took it to them a little bit. We turned it up a notch defensively.
difficult hate leading obvious
I hate it for him. And it's made it more difficult for us. It's obvious he would've been our leading scorer. But some things, you can't help.
