closer help teams
The new teams are all closer so that should help a little.
couple defense fault gotten mark minutes
That's the coach's fault because I should have gotten him out of there probably around the 10-minute mark for a couple minutes rest. He was tired, in his defense there.
bothered catching injuries maybe
That's the breaks. Some years you get injuries and other problems, and this is one of those years for us. We haven't been bothered by it too much in the past, so maybe it's all catching up to us now.
sitting win
It's a big win because you're still sitting up there 2-0 for another week.
games left road telling
It really is like two different teams. But I've been telling them all week, the road games we have left are all winnable games, so let's go out and get them.
altitude everybody great hard talented win
It's not just hard for us, it's hard for everybody to win here. First of all, (Nevada) always has talented teams. But then you have the altitude and some of the distractions of the city, that's a great advantage.
good ok ready workout
It's not that bad. We got in OK ? got enough rest. And we had a good workout (last night), so we're as ready as we can be.
almost town
They'll be in town before we get there. So it's almost like we're making another (road) trip.
grown hard held improve practice worked
They've really held together, grown as a team. They take coaching, they have worked hard in practice to improve their games, individually and (as a) team, and they like each other and play together.
game played schedule top tough
They've played a tough schedule and they've been in every ballgame. We have to be on top of our game if we want to win.
games win
This is it. We have to win some more games if we want to keep playing.
four sure three utah win
It's just going to go down to the wire. I think four (losses) for sure will be there, three if (Nevada) can win at Utah State.
athletic matter
It's just a matter of being a little stronger, more athletic on the road. We just haven't done that yet.
happen late season shame
It's a shame for it to happen anytime. But this late in the season makes it even more of a shame.
