The momentum is huge. We can go in on a high note. We beat team that is a higher seed that we are. We had to have a win to get our focus right for the tournament.

I'm very proud of this team. Every basket we got we had to fight hard for.
football game spring wrong
If you were at that spring football game and you didn't get chills, then something's wrong with you.
difficult games miss southern sunday takes travel
Sunday games are very difficult games. When you have to travel like Southern Miss had to, it takes a lot out of you.
applying began changed finger lead pressure
It's one of those things I can't put my finger on. They started applying pressure and it got pretty sad. We got out to a 17-3 lead and everything was clicking. They changed defenses and we began to quiver.
leave powerful stone
SMU is really good. They're a powerful and intelligent team. If you give them a seam, they're going to take it. We're going to try not to leave any stone unturned.
came fire minute points storm ten weathered
They came out on fire, with 24 points at the ten minute mark. We weathered the storm of the first ten minutes.
deal drive gives high opportunity road school washington watch
The Friday/Sunday deal gives us an opportunity to be on the road for more high school games. There have been times when we would drive to Washington D.C., watch a game, and then drive back the same night.
credit games gas giving goes night nine percent played product pull shot
All the credit goes to Tulsa. They played exceptionally well. The shot 55 percent and got better as the night went on and we shot 30 percent and got worse. It's a product of the times we're in (five games in nine days). You have to fight. We were giving it everything we had, but we weren't able to pull enough gas out of the tank.
bench confidence enthusiasm folks fought good great grueling hopefully household nice percentage played ranked texas
I think it's always great to win, especially when you're confidence is in the balance. We've played a tough, grueling schedule. Texas A&M Corpus Christi was ranked 53 in the RPI (ratings percentage index). They may not be a household name, but they're a good team. We've played some good folks and hopefully we'll benefit. We just had more enthusiasm tonight, and we really fought hard. And it's nice when the bench comes in and produces.
defend hit
We play defense, but we don't specifically play to defend the 26-foot 3-pointer, and they hit some of those.
bit point problems secret somebody
It's no secret we're having problems at point guard. We're a little bit out of sync. Somebody has to take over at quarterback.
good hop kids mac post quicker starting step type
They've got big post players. They're a smash-mouth MAC (Mid-American Conference) type team. And, they're good at home. They're a lot quicker and have more hop in their step at home. They're also starting to get some kids back from injuries. They're very good team.
came free hit line percentage played shot stood throw
We played real well to start. We came out and stood toe-to-toe with them and slugged it out. They hit some threes and shot a blistering percentage early. We had some inopportune turnovers and put them on the free throw line too many times.
