They made it to the World Series last year and they've lost some guys. But they're still a good team.

Our goal is to win as many games or more this year as last year. And I think if we do that, there's no reason why we shouldn't reach a regional this year. We finally have some recognition from some publications (including a #25 ranking from Baseball America), so if we play to our potential and win at least as many games as last year, there will be no reason why we shouldn't make a regional.

We had a two-hour snow delay (yesterday). I have never experienced anything like that in my whole life. I haven't seen snow in five years. I've never had snow fall on me while I was trying to play baseball.

I don't think it's an issue of playing hard or taking (Tuesday games) lightly. We just need to get it done.

(The delay) was not the best experience, and so to come back and win (Sunday) was just great. Hopefully we can keep it rolling from there against Oregon State.

We just really got it done. In series past, we were getting a lot more hits and not getting the big hits. This series we got the big hits.

This is the kind of game that defines a season. It was all worth it.

We just need to play our game and hopefully we'll get some good performances out of Brandon, Coop, and Tyson again.

I'd like to prove a point that our league is better than any other league. The only way to do that is by going out and beating a quality Big 12 team.
