Guys were getting the ball to me, and I just knocked them down. It was definitely fun and exciting. It was like a home game for me.

We have our backs against the wall right now. We definitely need to come out swinging.

I haven't noticed any change in him, and I've been around him for three years. I just know he's a fighting person, and he's trying to get out there and get wins.

We'll be back. Coach (Wooldridge) was positive with us. He just said to just come back tomorrow and get after it again. We've got heart; we'll be ready.

We are really down right now. We really don't know what to think.
